The Link between Magnetic Fields and Filamentary Clouds: Bimodal Cloud Orientations in the Gould Belt

Hua-bai Li, Min Fang, Thomas Henning +1

The orientations of filamentary molecular clouds in the Gould Belt and their local ICM (inter-cloud media) magnetic fields are studied using near-infrared dust extinction maps and…

High-fidelity view of the structure and fragmentation of the high-mass, filamentary IRDC G11.11-0.12

J. Kainulainen, S. E. Ragan, T. Henning +1

Star formation in molecular clouds is intimately linked to their internal mass distribution. We present an unprecedentedly detailed analysis of the column density structure of a hi…

Connection between dense gas mass fraction, turbulence driving, and star formation efficiency of molecular clouds

Jouni Kainulainen, Christoph Federrath, Thomas Henning

We examine the physical parameters that affect the accumulation of gas in molecular clouds to high column densities where the formation of stars takes place. In particular, we anal…

Spectral Properties of X-ray Binaries in Centaurus A

Mark J. Burke, Somak Raychaudhury, Ralph P. Kraft +19

We present a spectral investigation of X-ray binaries in NGC 5128 (Cen A), using six 100 ks Chandra observations taken over two months in 2007. We divide our sample into thermally…

The earliest phases of star formation - A Herschel key project. The thermal structure of low-mass molecular cloud cores

R. Launhardt, A. M. Stutz, A. Schmiedeke +19

The temperature and density structure of molecular cloud cores are the most important physical quantities that determine the course of the protostellar collapse and the properties…
