Protostellar disks in their natural habitat -- the formation of protostars and their accretion disks in the turbulent and magnetized interstellar medium
Alexander C. Mayer, Thorsten Naab, Paola Caselli +6
We present simulations of the supernova-driven turbulent interstellar medium (ISM) in a simulation domain of volume within which we resolve the formation of pro…
Moving-mesh non-ideal magnetohydrodynamical simulations of the collapse of cloud cores to protostars
Alexander C. Mayer, Oliver Zier, Thorsten Naab +5
Magnetic fields have been shown both observationally and through theoretical work to be an important factor in the formation of protostars and their accretion disks. Accurate model…
The masses, structure and lifetimes of cold clouds in a high-resolution simulation of a low metallicity starburst
Constantina M. Fotopoulou, Thorsten Naab, Natalia Lahén +6
We present an analysis of the cold gas phase in a low metallicity starburst generated in a high-resolution hydrodynamical simulation of a gas-rich dwarf galaxy merger as part of th…
On the origin of V-shaped polarisation spectra in molecular clouds
Daniel Seifried, Stefanie Walch, Thorsten Balduin
We extend previous theoretical works to gain a better understanding of the origin of observed polarisation degree spectra of molecular clouds, which show a so-called V-shape, i.e.…
Unravelling the structure of magnetised molecular clouds with SILCC-Zoom: sheets, filaments and fragmentation
S. Ganguly, S. Walch, D. Seifried +2
To what extent magnetic fields affect how molecular clouds (MCs) fragment and create dense structures is an open question. We present a numerical study of cloud fragmentation using…
How do supernova remnants cool? -- I. Morphology, optical emission lines, and shocks
Ekaterina I. Makarenko, Stefanie Walch, Seamus D. Clarke +4
Supernovae (SNe) inject erg in the interstellar medium, thereby shocking and heating the gas. A substantial fraction of this energy is later lost via radiative cooli…
