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…
The role of previous generations of stars in triggering star formation and driving gas dynamics
Nicholas P. Herrington, Clare L. Dobbs, Thomas J. R. Bending
We present hydrodynamic and magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) simulations of sub galactic regions including photoionising and supernova feedack. We aim to improve the initial conditions of…
Modeling Supermassive Primordial Stars with MESA
Nicholas P. Herrington, Daniel J. Whalen, Tyrone E. Woods
Supermassive stars forming at 15 - 20 are one of the leading contenders for the origin of the first quasars, over 200 of which have now been discovered at 6. These s…
Turbulent Cold Flows Gave Birth to the First Quasars
Muhammad A. Latif, Daniel J. Whalen, Sadegh Khochfar +2
How quasars powered by supermassive black holes (SMBHs) formed less than a billion years after the Big Bang is still one of the outstanding problems in astrophysics 20 years after…
