Star formation efficiency and scaling relations in parsec-scale cluster-forming clumps
V. Rawat, M. R. Samal, A. Zavagno +5
Numerical simulations predict that clumps (1 pc) should form stars at high efficiency to produce bound star clusters. We conducted a statistical study of 17 nearby cluster-fo…
Peering into the Heart of the Giant Molecular Cloud G148.24+00.41: A Deep Near-infrared View of the Newly Hatched Cluster FSR 655
Vineet Rawat, M. R. Samal, D. K. Ojha +5
We present a detailed near-infrared study of an embedded cluster located in the hub of the giant molecular cloud G148.24+00.41 of mass 10 , with the TANSPEC inst…
The Giant Molecular Cloud G148.24+00.41: Gas Properties, Kinematics, and Cluster Formation at the Nexus of Filamentary Flows
Vineet Rawat, M. R. Samal, D. L. Walker +9
Filamentary flows toward the centre of molecular clouds have been recognized as a crucial process in the formation and evolution of stellar clusters. In this paper, we present a co…
Understanding the relative importance of magnetic field, gravity, and turbulence in star formation at the hub of the giant molecular cloud G148.24+00.41
Vineet Rawat, M. R. Samal, Chakali Eswaraiah +10
The relative importance of magnetic fields, turbulence, and gravity in the early phases of star formation is still not well understood. We report the first high-resolution dust pol…
