Early Evolution and 3D Structure of Embedded Star Clusters
Claude Cournoyer-Cloutier, Alison Sills, William E. Harris +8
We perform simulations of star cluster formation to investigate the morphological evolution of embedded star clusters in the earliest stages of their evolution. We conduct our simu…

Radiation shielding of protoplanetary discs in young star-forming regions
Maite J. C. Wilhelm, Simon Portegies Zwart, Claude Cournoyer-Cloutier +4
Protoplanetary discs spend their lives in the dense environment of a star forming region. While there, they can be affected by nearby stars through external photoevaporation and dy…

Early-Forming Massive Stars Suppress Star Formation and Hierarchical Cluster Assembly
Sean C. Lewis, Stephen L. W. McMillan, Mordecai-Mark Mac Low +8
Feedback from massive stars plays an important role in the formation of star clusters. Whether a very massive star is born early or late in the cluster formation timeline has profo…
