Chemistry and radiative shielding in star forming galactic disks
Chalence Safranek-Shrader, Mark R. Krumholz, Chang-Goo Kim +5
To understand the conditions under which dense, molecular gas is able to form within a galaxy, we post-process a series of three-dimensional galactic-disk-scale simulations with ra…
Triggered Star Formation and Its Consequences
Shule Li, Adam Frank, Eric Blackman
Star formation can be triggered by compression from wind or supernova driven shock waves that sweep over molecular clouds. Because these shocks will likely contain processed elemen…
MHD Shock-Clump Evolution with Self-Contained Magnetic Fields
Shule Li, Adam Frank, Eric G. Blackman
We study the interaction of strong shock waves with magnetized clumps. Previous numerical work focused on the simplified scenario in which shocked clumps are immersed in a globally…
Consequences of Magnetic Field Structure for Heat Transport in Magnetohydrodynamics
Shule Li, Adam Frank, Eric Blackman
Interfaces between hot and cold magnetized plasmas exist in various astrophysical contexts, for example where hot outflows impinge on an ambient interstellar medium (ISM). It is of…
WASP-12b as a prolate, inflated and disrupting planet from tidal dissipation
Shu-lin Li, Neil Miller, Douglas N. C. Lin +1
The class of exotic Jupiter-mass planets that orbit very close to their parent stars were not explicitly expected before their discovery. The recently found transiting planet WASP-…
