ALMA Survey of Orion Planck Galactic Cold Clumps (ALMASOP): A forming quadruple system with continuum `ribbons' and intricate outflows

Qiu-yi Luo, Tie Liu, Aaron T. Lee +31

One of the most poorly understood aspects of low-mass star formation is how multiple-star systems are formed. Here we present the results of Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter…

The highly variable time evolution of star-forming cores identified with dendrograms

Rachel A. Smullen, Kaitlin M. Kratter, Stella S. R. Offner +2

We investigate the time evolution of dense cores identified in molecular cloud simulations using dendrograms, which are a common tool to identify hierarchical structure in simulati…

The Formation and Evolution of Wide-Orbit Stellar Multiples In Magnetized Clouds

Aaron T. Lee, Stella S. R. Offner, Kaitlin M. Kratter +2

Stars rarely form in isolation. Nearly half of the stars in the Milky Way have a companion, and this fraction increases in star-forming regions. However, why some dense cores and f…

Building up the Population III initial mass function from cosmological initial conditions

Athena Stacy, Volker Bromm, Aaron T. Lee

We simulate the growth of a Population III stellar system, starting from cosmological initial conditions at z=100. We follow the formation of a minihalo and the subsequent collapse…

Bondi-Hoyle Accretion in an Isothermal Magnetized Plasma

Aaron T. Lee, Andrew J. Cunningham, Christopher F. McKee +1

In regions of star formation, protostars and newborn stars accrete mass from their natal clouds. These clouds are threaded by magnetic fields with a strength characterized by the p…

Dynamical Friction in a Gas: The Supersonic Case

Aaron T. Lee, Steven W. Stahler

Any gravitating mass traversing a relatively sparse gas experiences a retarding force created by its disturbance of the surrounding medium. In a previous contribution (Lee & Stahle…
