Formation of the Musca filament: Evidence for asymmetries in the accretion flow due to a cloud-cloud collision

L. Bonne, S. Bontemps, N. Schneider +11

Context. Dense molecular filaments are ubiquituous in the interstellar medium, yet their internal physical conditions and formation mechanism remain debated. Aims. We study the kin…

Triggered O star formation in M20 via cloud-cloud collision: Comparisons between high-resolution CO observations and simulations

Kazufumi Torii, Yusuke Hattori, Keisuke Hasegawa +9

High-mass star formation is one of the top-priority issues in astrophysics. Recent observational studies are revealing that cloud-cloud collisions may play a role in high-mass star…

Isolating signatures of major cloud-cloud collisions II: The lifetimes of broad bridge features

T. J. Haworth, K. Shima, E. J. Tasker +5

We investigate the longevity of broad bridge features in position-velocity diagrams that appear as a result of cloud-cloud collisions. Broad bridges will have a finite lifetime due…

Isolating signatures of major cloud-cloud collisions using position-velocity diagrams

T. J. Haworth, E. J. Tasker, Y. Fukui +6

Collisions between giant molecular clouds are a potential mechanism for triggering the formation of massive stars, or even super star clusters. The trouble is identifying this proc…

Dust Heating by Low-mass Stars in Massive Galaxies at z<1

M. Kajisawa, T. Morishita, Y. Taniguchi +3

Using the Hubble Space Telescope/Wide Field Camera 3 imaging data and multi-wavelength photometric catalog, we investigated the dust temperature of passively evolving and star-form…

Molecular Clouds Toward the Super Star Cluster NGC3603; Possible Evidence for a Cloud-Cloud Collision in Triggering the Cluster Formation

Yasuo Fukui, Akio Ohama, Naoki Hanaoka +17

We present new large field observations of molecular clouds with NANTEN2 toward the super star cluster NGC3603 in the transitions 12CO(J=2-1, J=1-0) and 13CO(J=2-1, J=1-0). We sugg…
