Forming isolated brown dwarfs by turbulent fragmentation

O. Lomax, A. P. Whitworth, D. A. Hubber

We use Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics to explore the circumstances under which an isolated very-low-mass prestellar core can be formed by colliding turbulent flows and collapse to…

The Role of Discs in the Collapse and Fragmentation of Prestellar Cores

O. Lomax, A. P. Whitworth, D. A. Hubber

Disc fragmentation provides an important mechanism for producing low mass stars in prestellar cores. Here, we describe Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics simulations which show how po…

Star Formation triggered by cloud-cloud collisions

S. K. Balfour, A. P. Whitworth, D. A. Hubber +1

We present the results of SPH simulations in which two clouds, each having mass and radius , collide head-o…

StarBench: The D-type expansion of an HII region

T. G. Bisbas, T. J. Haworth, R. J. R. Williams +16

StarBench is a project focused on benchmarking and validating different star-formation and stellar feedback codes. In this first StarBench paper we perform a comparison study of th…

On the effects of solenoidal and compressive turbulence in prestellar cores

O. Lomax, A. P. Whitworth, D. A. Hubber

We present the results of an ensemble of SPH simulations that follow the evolution of prestellar cores for . All the cores have the same mass, and start with the sa…

Simulations of star formation in Ophiuchus, II: Multiplicity

O. Lomax, A. P. Whitworth, D. A. Hubber +2

Lomax et al. have constructed an ensemble of 60 prestellar cores having masses, sizes, projected shapes, temperatures and non-thermal radial velocity dispersions that match, statis…
