Non-ideal MHD simulations of subcritical prestellar cores with non-equilibrium chemistry
Aris Tritsis, Christoph Federrath, Karen Willacy +1
Non-ideal magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) effects are thought to be gravity's closest ally in overcoming the support of magnetic fields and in forming stars. Here, we modify the publicly…
A new method for measuring the 3D turbulent velocity dispersion of molecular clouds
Madeleine Stewart, Christoph Federrath
The structure and star formation activity of a molecular cloud are fundamentally linked to its internal turbulence. However, accurately measuring the turbulent velocity dispersion…
Impact of relativistic jets on the star formation rate: a turbulence-regulated framework
Ankush Mandal, Dipanjan Mukherjee, Christoph Federrath +4
We apply a turbulence-regulated model of star formation to calculate the star formation rate (SFR) of dense star-forming clouds in simulations of jet-ISM interactions. The method i…
First extragalactic measurement of the turbulence driving parameter: ALMA observations of the star-forming region N159E in the Large Magellanic Cloud
Piyush Sharda, Shyam H. Menon, Christoph Federrath +13
Studying the driving modes of turbulence is important for characterizing the impact of turbulence in various astrophysical environments. The driving mode of turbulence is parameter…
Quantifying stochasticity-driven uncertainties in H II region metallicities
Raghav Arora, Mark R. Krumholz, Christoph Federrath
With the advent of Integral Field Units (IFUs), surveys can now measure metallicities across the discs of nearby galaxies at scales pc. At such small scales, many o…
The Effects of Magnetic Fields and Outflow Feedback on the Shape and Evolution of the Density PDF in Turbulent Star-Forming Clouds
Sabrina M. Appel, Blakesley Burkhart, Vadim A. Semenov +2
Using a suite of 3D hydrodynamical simulations of star-forming molecular clouds, we investigate how the density probability distribution function (PDF) changes when including gravi…
