Magnetic fields in star forming environments: how does field strength affect gas on spiral arm and cloud scales?
Nicholas P. Herrington, Clare L. Dobbs, Thomas J. R. Bending
We investigate star formation from subparsec to kpc scales with magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) models of a cloud structure and a section of galactic spiral arm. We aim to understand how…
Galaxy to cloud scales
Clare Dobbs
Simulations from the scales of isolated galaxies to clouds have been instrumental in informing us about molecular cloud formation and evolution. Simulations are able to investigate…
The formation of young massive clusters by colliding flows
C. L. Dobbs, K. Y. Liow, S. Rieder
Young massive clusters (YMCs) are the most intense regions of star formation in galaxies. Formulating a model for YMC formation whilst at the same time meeting the constraints from…
Comparing the Properties of GMCs in M33 from Simulations and Observations
C. L. Dobbs, E. Rosolowsky, A. R. Pettitt +3
We compare the properties of clouds in simulated M33 galaxies to those observed in the real M33. We apply a friends of friends algorithm and CPROPS to identify clouds, as well as a…
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…
The evolution of Giant Molecular Filaments
A. Duarte-Cabral, C. L. Dobbs
In recent years there has been a growing interest in studying giant molecular filaments (GMFs), which are extremely elongated (> 100pc in length) giant molecular clouds (GMCs). The…
