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…
Expanding shells around young clusters -- S 171/Be 59
G. F. Gahm, M. J. C. Wilhelm, C. M. Persson +2
Some HII regions that surround young stellar clusters are bordered by molecular shells that appear to expand at a rate inconsistent with our current model simulations. In this stud…
Exploring the possibility of Peter Pan discs across stellar mass
Maite J. C. Wilhelm, Simon Portegies Zwart
Recently, several accreting M dwarf stars have been discovered with ages far exceeding the typical protoplanetary disc lifetime. These `Peter Pan discs' can be explained as primord…
Evolution of circumstellar discs in young star-forming regions
Francisca Concha-Ramírez, Maite J. C. Wilhelm, Simon Portegies Zwart
The evolution of circumstellar discs is influenced by their surroundings. The relevant processes include external photoevaporation due to nearby stars, and dynamical truncations. T…
Effects of stellar density on the photoevaporation of circumstellar discs
Francisca Concha-Ramírez, Maite J. C. Wilhelm, Simon Portegies Zwart +2
Circumstellar discs are the precursors of planetary systems and develop shortly after their host star has formed. In their early stages these discs are immersed in an environment r…
The Milky Way's bar structural properties from gravitational waves
Maite J. C. Wilhelm, Valeriya Korol, Elena M. Rossi +1
The Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA) will enable Galactic gravitational wave (GW) astronomy by individually resolving signals from double white dwarf (DWD) binar…
External photoevaporation of circumstellar disks constrains the timescale for planet formation
Francisca Concha-Ramírez, Maite J. C. Wilhelm, Simon Portegies Zwart +1
Planet-forming circumstellar disks are a fundamental part of the star formation process. Since stars form in a hierarchical fashion in groups of up to hundreds or thousands, the UV…
