Gauging the Impact of Cosmic Ray Feedback on the Stellar Initial Mass Function
Margot Fitz Axen, Stella S. R. Offner, Philip F. Hopkins +1
Cosmic rays (CRs) drive ionization and influence gas dynamics in molecular clouds (MCs), potentially impacting the resulting star formation outcomes. Although previous simulations…

Suppressed Cosmic Ray Energy Densities in Molecular Clouds From Streaming Instability-Regulated Transport
Margot Fitz Axen, Stella Offner, Phillip F. Hopkins +2
Cosmic rays (CRs) are the primary driver of ionization in star forming molecular clouds (MCs). Despite their potential impacts on gas dynamics and chemistry, no simulations of star…
