The Decrease of Specific Angular Momentum and the Hot Toroid Formation: The Massive Clump G10.6-0.4
Hauyu Baobab Liu, Paul T. P. Ho, Qizhou Zhang +3
This is the first paper of our series of high resolution (1") studies of the massive star forming region G10.6--0.4. We present the emission line observations of the hot core type…
Observational Determination of the Turbulent Ambipolar Diffusion Scale and Magnetic Field Strength in Molecular Clouds
Talayeh Hezareh, Martin Houde, Carolyn McCoey +1
We study the correlation of the velocity dispersion of the coexisting molecules H13CN and H13CO+ and the turbulent energy dissipation scale in the DR21(OH) star-forming region. The…
Evidence for Dynamically Important Magnetic Fields in Molecular Clouds
Hua-bai Li, Raymond Blundell, Abigail Hedden +3
Recent observational evidence that magnetic fields are dynamically important in molecular clouds, compared to self-gravity and turbulence, is reviewed and illustrated with data fro…
Tracing Turbulent Ambipolar Diffusion in Molecular Clouds
Hua-bai Li, Martin Houde, Shih-ping Lai +1
Though flux freezing is a good approximation frequently assumed for molecular clouds, ambipolar diffusion (AD) is inevitable at certain scales. The scale at which AD sets in can be…
