On the compressive nature of turbulence driven by ionising feedback in the pillars of the Carina Nebula
Shyam H. Menon, Christoph Federrath, Pamela Klaassen +2
The ionizing radiation of massive stars sculpts the surrounding neutral gas into pillar-like structures. Direct signatures of star formation through outflows and jets are observed…
Gravity and rotation drag the magnetic field in high-mass star formation
H. Beuther, J. D. Soler, H. Linz +8
The formation of hot stars out of the cold interstellar medium lies at the heart of astrophysical research. Understanding the importance of magnetic fields during star formation re…
Super-Eddington mass growth of intermediate-mass black holes embedded in dusty circumnuclear disks
Daisuke Toyouchi, Kohei Inayoshi, Takashi Hosokawa +1
We perform the first three-dimensional radiation hydrodynamical simulations that investigate the growth of intermediate-mass BHs (IMBHs) embedded in massive self-gravitating, dusty…
Makemake + Sedna: A Continuum Radiation Transport and Photoionization Framework for Astrophysical Newtonian Fluid Dynamics
Rolf Kuiper, Harold W. Yorke, Andrea Mignone
Astrophysical fluid flow studies often encompass a wide range of physical processes to account for the complexity of the system under consideration. In addition to gravity, a prope…
Photoevaporation of Grain-Depleted Protoplanetary Disks around Intermediate-Mass Stars: Investigating Possibility of Gas-Rich Debris Disks as Protoplanetary Remnants
Riouhei Nakatani, Hiroshi Kobayashi, Rolf Kuiper +2
Debris disks are classically considered to be gas-less systems, but recent (sub)millimeter observations have detected tens of those with rich gas content. The origin of the gas com…
Modeling disk fragmentation and multiplicity in massive star formation
G. André Oliva, Rolf Kuiper
We investigate the formation and early evolution and fragmentation of an accretion disk around a forming massive protostar. We use a grid-based self-gravity-radiation-hydrodynamics…
