Simulating star formation in molecular cloud cores IV. The role of turbulence and thermodynamics
R. E. Attwood, S. P. Goodwin, D. Stamatellos +1
We perform SPH simulations of the collapse and fragmentation of low-mass cores having different initial levels of turbulence (alpha_turb=0.05,0.10,0.25). We use a new treatment of…
Introducing a Hybrid Method of Radiative Transfer for Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics
Duncan Forgan, Ken Rice, Dimitris Stamatellos +1
A new means of incorporating radiative transfer into smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) is introduced, which builds on the success of two previous methods - the polytropic cooli…
Introducing a Hybrid Method of Radiative Transfer in Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics
Duncan Forgan, Ken Rice, Dimitris Stamatellos +1
We present a new method of incorporating radiative transfer into Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH). There have been many recent attempts at radiative transfer in SPH (Stamatell…
SCUBA and Spitzer observations of the Taurus molecular cloud - pulling the bull's tail
D. Nutter, J. M. Kirk, D. Stamatellos +1
We present continuum data from the Submillimetre Common-User Bolometer Array (SCUBA) on the James Clerk Maxwell Telescope (JCMT), and the Mid-Infrared Photometer for Spitzer (MIPS)…
