Virial-based extraction of structures in numerical simulations: The vibes tool

Simon Chevalier, Fabien Louvet, Yann Bernard +9

The processes that determine the stellar initial mass function (IMF) and its connection to the core mass function (CMF) are among the major open questions in star formation. The de…

DAWN. I. Simulating the formation and early evolution of stellar clusters with Phantom N-Body

Yann Bernard, Estelle Moraux, Daniel J. Price +3

Context. Simulating stellar dynamics in a molecular cloud environment is numerically challenging due to the strong coupling between young stars and their surrounding gas, and the l…

Observations of Carbon Radio Recombination Lines with the NenuFAR telescope. I. Cassiopeia A and Cygnus A

Lucie Cros, Antoine Gusdorf, Philippe Salomé +26

Carbon Radio Recombination Lines (CRRLs) at decametre wavelengths trace the diffuse phase of the interstellar medium (ISM) of the Galaxy. Their observation allows to measure physic…

The interdependence between density PDF, CMF and IMF and their relation with Mach number in simulations

Arturo Nuñez-Castiñeyra, Matthias González, Noé Brucy +3

The initial mass function (IMF) of stars and the corresponding cloud mass function (CMF), traditionally considered universal, exhibit variations that are influenced by the local en…

Statistical model for filamentary structures of molecular clouds -- The modified multiplicative random cascade model and its multifractal nature

Jean-François Robitaille, Abdelhalim Abdeldayem, Isabelle Joncour +4

We propose a new statistical model that can reproduce the hierarchical nature of the ubiquitous filamentary structures of molecular clouds. This model is based on the multiplicativ…

Outflows, cores and magnetic field orientations in W43-MM1 as seen by ALMA

C. Arce-Tord, F. Louvet, P. C. Cortes +7

It has been proposed that the magnetic field, pervasive in the ISM, plays an important role in the process of massive star formation. To better understand its impact at the pre and…
