On the kinematic and thermodynamic state of clouds in complex wind-multi-cloud environments using a Friends-of-Friends analysis

Andrei Antipov, Wladimir E. Banda-Barragán, Yuval Birnboim +3

We investigate the interaction between a shock-driven hot wind and a cold multi-cloud layer, for conditions commonly found in interstellar and circumgalactic gas. We present a meth…

The influence of the cloud virial parameter on the initial mass function

Sajay Sunny Mathew, Christoph Federrath, Amit Seta

Crucial for star formation is the interplay between gravity and turbulence. The observed cloud virial parameter, , which is the ratio of twice the turbulent kinet…

AHKASH: a new Hybrid particle-in-cell code for simulations of astrophysical collisionless plasma

Radhika Achikanath Chirakkara, Christoph Federrath, Amit Seta

We introduce strophysical ybrid-inetic simulations with the code () -- a new Hybrid particle-in-cell (PIC) cod…

Structure functions with higher-order stencils as a probe to separate small- and large-scale magnetic fields

Amit Seta, Christoph Federrath

Magnetic fields are an energetically important component of star-formation galaxies, but it is often difficult to measure their properties from observations. One of the complexitie…

Wide-binary eccentricity distribution in young star clusters: dependence on the binary separation and mass

Sajay Sunny Mathew, Siyao Xu, Christoph Federrath +2

We study the wide-binary eccentricity () distribution in young star clusters and the role of turbulence in setting the form of the distribution using magnetohydrodynamical (…

On the limitations of H alpha luminosity as a star formation tracer in spatially resolved observations

Zipeng Hu, Benjamin D. Wibking, Mark R. Krumholz +1

This study examines the limitations of H luminosity as a tracer of star formation rates (SFR) in spatially resolved observations. We carry out high-resolution simulations of a M…
