Molecular Cloud Evolution II. From cloud formation to the early stages of star formation in decaying conditions
E. Vazquez-Semadeni, G. C. Gomez, A. K. Jappsen +3
We study the formation of giant dense cloud complexes and of stars within them by means of SPH numerical simulations of the mildly supersonic collision of gas streams (``inflows'')…
The Lifetimes and Evolution of Molecular Cloud Cores
Enrique Vazquez-Semadeni, Jongsoo Kim, Mohsen Shadmehri +1
We discuss the lifetimes and evolution of clumps and cores formed as turbulent density fluctuations in nearly isothermal molecular clouds. In the non-magnetic case, clumps are unli…
Gravoturbulent Fragmentation
Ralf S. Klessen, Javier Ballesteros-Paredes
We discuss star formation in the turbulent interstellar medium. We argue that morphological appearance and dynamical evolution of the gas is primarily determined by supersonic turb…
