The Herschel Exploitation of Local Galaxy Andromeda (HELGA). I: Global far-infrared and sub-mm morphology
J. Fritz, G. Gentile, M. W. L. Smith +30
We have obtained Herschel images at five wavelengths from 100 to 500 micron of a ~5.5x2.5 degree area centred on the local galaxy M31 (Andromeda), our nearest neighbour spiral gala…
Solenoidal versus compressive turbulence forcing
C. Federrath, J. Duval, R. S. Klessen +2
We analyze the statistics and star formation rate obtained in high-resolution numerical experiments of forced supersonic turbulence, and compare with observations. We concentrate o…
Comparing the statistics of interstellar turbulence in simulations and observations: Solenoidal versus compressive turbulence forcing
C. Federrath, J. Roman-Duval, R. Klessen +2
We study two limiting cases of turbulence forcing in numerical experiments: solenoidal (divergence-free) forcing, and compressive (curl-free) forcing, and compare our results to ob…
Re-examining Larson's Scaling Relationships in Galactic Molecular Clouds
Mark Heyer, Coleman Krawczyk, Julia Duval +1
The properties of Galactic molecular clouds tabulated by Solomon etal (1987) (SRBY) are re-examined using the Boston University-FCRAO Galactic Ring Survey of 13CO J=1-0 emission. T…
