Simulating star formation in molecular cloud cores IV. The role of turbulence and thermodynamics
R. E. Attwood, S. P. Goodwin, D. Stamatellos +1
We perform SPH simulations of the collapse and fragmentation of low-mass cores having different initial levels of turbulence (alpha_turb=0.05,0.10,0.25). We use a new treatment of…
Introducing a Hybrid Method of Radiative Transfer for Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics
Duncan Forgan, Ken Rice, Dimitris Stamatellos +1
A new means of incorporating radiative transfer into smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) is introduced, which builds on the success of two previous methods - the polytropic cooli…
The properties of brown dwarfs and low-mass hydrogen-burning stars formed by disc fragmentation
Dimitris Stamatellos, Anthony P. Whitworth
We suggest that a high proportion of brown dwarfs are formed by gravitational fragmentation of massive extended discs around Sun-like stars. Such discs should arise frequently, but…
The formation of brown dwarfs and low-mass stars by disc fragmentation
Dimitris Stamatellos, Anthony P. Whitworth
We suggest that a high proportion of brown dwarfs are formed by gravitational fragmentation of massive, extended discs around Sun-like stars. We argue that such discs should arise…
Introducing a Hybrid Method of Radiative Transfer in Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics
Duncan Forgan, Ken Rice, Dimitris Stamatellos +1
We present a new method of incorporating radiative transfer into Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH). There have been many recent attempts at radiative transfer in SPH (Stamatell…
SCUBA and Spitzer observations of the Taurus molecular cloud - pulling the bull's tail
D. Nutter, J. M. Kirk, D. Stamatellos +1
We present continuum data from the Submillimetre Common-User Bolometer Array (SCUBA) on the James Clerk Maxwell Telescope (JCMT), and the Mid-Infrared Photometer for Spitzer (MIPS)…
