Effect of gravity-driven longitudinal flows in filaments on angular momentum transport to embedded cores
Griselda Arroyo-Chávez, Shuo Kong, Enrique Vázquez-Semadeni
Different models of filament formation predict distinct patterns of angular momentum redistribution toward embedded cores, set by the underlying velocity-field structure, which can…

The Molecular Cloud Lifecycle I: Constraining H2 formation and dissociation rates with observations
Shmuel Bialy, Blakesley Burkhart, Daniel Seifried +9
Molecular clouds (MCs) are the birthplaces of new stars in galaxies. A key component of MCs are photodissociation regions (PDRs), where far-ultraviolet radiation plays a crucial ro…

The Molecular Cloud Lifecycle II: Formation and Destruction of Molecular Clouds Diagnosed via H Fluorescent Emission Emission
Blakesley Burkhart, Shmuel Bialy, Daniel Seifried +11
Molecular hydrogen (H) formation and dissociation are key processes that drive the gas lifecycle in galaxies. Using the SImulating the LifeCycle of Molecular Clouds (SILCC) zoo…
