The Turbulent Support (TS) and Global Hierarchical Collapse (GHC) models for molecular clouds compared. Differences, convergence, and myths

Enrique Vázquez-Semadeni, Aina Palau, Gilberto C. Gómez +8

We provide a detailed comparison between the ``turbulent support'' (TS) and ``global hierarchical collapse'' (GHC) models for molecular clouds and star formation, their respective…

The Accretion Mode in Sub-Eddington Supermassive Black Holes: Getting into the Central Parsecs of Andromeda

C. Alig, A. Prieto, M. Blaña +5

The inner kiloparsec regions surrounding sub-Eddington (luminosity less than 10 in Eddington units, L) supermassive black holes (BHs) often show a characteristic net…

The Galactic 3D large-scale dust distribution via Gaussian process regression on spherical coordinates

R. H. Leike, G. Edenhofer, J. Knollmüller +3

Knowing the Galactic 3D dust distribution is relevant for understanding many processes in the interstellar medium and for correcting many astronomical observations for dust absorpt…

On the interaction of a Bonnor-Ebert sphere with a stellar wind

Oliver Zier, Andreas Burkert, Christian Alig

The structure of protostellar cores can often be approximated by isothermal Bonnor-Ebert spheres (BES) which are stabilized by an external pressure. For the typical pressure of $10…

Dwarfs in the Milky Way halo outer rim: first in-fall or backsplash satellites?

Matias Blaña, Andreas Burkert, Michael Fellhauer +2

Leo T is a gas-rich dwarf located at 414kpc distance from the Milky Way (MW) and it is currently assumed to be on its first approach. Here, we present an analysi…

Simulating the impact of the Smith Cloud

C. Alig, S. Hammer, N. Borodatchenkova +2

We investigate the future evolution of the Smith Cloud by performing hydrodynamical simulations of the cloud impact onto the gaseous Milky Way Galactic disk. We assume a local orig…
