The emerging timescale of young star clusters regulated by cluster stellar mass
Alex Pedrini, Angela Adamo, Daniela Calzetti +23
Quantifying the timescales of star cluster emergence from their natal clouds remains one of the main challenges in understanding the star formation process. These timescales are fu…
FROST-CLUSTERS -- III. Metallicity-dependent intermediate mass black hole formation by runaway collisions in dense star clusters
Antti Rantala, Thorsten Naab, Natalia Lahén +4
We explore the formation of intermediate mass black holes (IMBHs), potential seeds for supermassive black holes (SMBHs), via runaway stellar collisions for a wide range of star clu…
Where do stars explode in the ISM? -- The distribution of dense gas around evolved massive stars in M33
Sumit K. Sarbadhicary, Jordan Wagner, Eric W. Koch +27
The effect of supernovae (SNe) on star-formation in the interstellar medium (ISM) depends sensitively on where SNe explode with respect to ISM clouds. Observationally, SN ISM envir…
Cosmic Threads: Interlinking the Stellar Initial Mass Function from Star-Birth to Galaxies
Tereza Jerabkova, Donatella Romano, Pavel Kroupa +19
The stellar initial mass function (sIMF) describes the distribution of stellar masses formed in a single star formation event in a molecular cloud clump. It is fundamental to astro…
