The Physical Properties of Large-Scale Galactic Filaments
Catherine Zucker, Cara Battersby, Alyssa Goodman
The characterization of our Galaxy's longest filamentary gas features has been the subject of several studies in recent years, producing not only a sizeable sample of large-scale f…
Star formation in a high-pressure environment: An SMA view of the Galactic centre dust ridge
D. L. Walker, S. N. Longmore, Q. Zhang +14
The star formation rate in the Central Molecular Zone (CMZ) is an order of magnitude lower than predicted according to star formation relations that have been calibrated in the dis…
The Molecular Gas Environment in the 20 km s Cloud in the Central Molecular Zone
Xing Lu, Qizhou Zhang, Jens Kauffmann +9
We recently reported a population of protostellar candidates in the 20 km s cloud in the Central Molecular Zone of the Milky Way, traced by HO masers in gravitationally…
The Lifetimes of Phases in High-Mass Star-Forming Regions
Cara Battersby, John Bally, Brian Svoboda
High-mass stars form within star clusters from dense, molecular regions, but is the process of cluster formation slow and hydrostatic or quick and dynamic? We link the physical pro…
Origins of Scatter in the Relationship Between HCN 1-0 and Dense Gas Mass in the Galactic Center
E. A. C. Mills, C. Battersby
We investigate the correlation of HCN 1-0 with dense gas mass in the Galactic center. We find that in general (on the ~10 pc size scale of individual molecular cloud cores) HCN 1-0…
