Episodic accretion, radiative feedback, and their role in low-mass star formation
Dimitris Stamatellos, David Hubber, Anthony Whitworth
It is speculated that the accretion of material onto young protostars is episodic. We present a computational method to include the effects of episodic accretion in radiation hydro…
The initial conditions of high-mass star formation: radiative transfer models of IRDCs seen in the Herschel Hi-GAL survey
L. A. Wilcock, J. M. Kirk, D. Stamatellos +13
The densest infrared dark clouds (IRDCs) may represent the earliest observable stage of high-mass star formation. These clouds are very cold, hence they emit mainly at far-infrared…
Modelling Herschel observations of infrared-dark clouds in the Hi-GAL survey
D. Stamatellos, M. Griffin, J. Kirk +5
We demonstrate the use of the 3D Monte Carlo radiative transfer code PHAETHON to model infrared-dark clouds (IRDCs) that are externally illuminated by the interstellar radiation fi…
Toward understanding the formation of multiple systems - A pilot IRAM-PdBI survey of Class 0 objects
A. J. Maury, Ph. Andre, P. Hennebelle +6
The formation process of binary stars and multiple systems is poorly understood. Here, we seek to determine the typical outcome of protostellar collapse and to constrain models of…
