Wind-Driven Gas Networks and Star Formation in Galaxies: Reaction-Advection Hydrodynamic Simulations
David Chappell, John Scalo
The effects of wind-driven star formation feedback on the spatio-temporal organization of stars and gas in galaxies is studied using two-dimensional intermediate-representational q…
A Prescription for Star Formation Feedback: The Importance of Multiple Shell Interactions
John Scalo, David Chappell
The relation between the star formation rate and the kinetic energy increase in a region containing a large number of stellar sources is investigated as a possible prescription for…
Clustering Properties of Stars in Simulations of Wind-Driven Star Formation
John Scalo, David Chappell
Several recent observational studies have shown that the clustering of young stars in local star-forming regions, and of Cepheids in the LMC, can be described by a power law two-po…
On the Density Probability Function of Galactic Gas. I. Numerical Simulations and the Significance of the Polytropic Index
J. Scalo, E. Vazquez-Semadeni, D. Chappell +1
We investigate the form of the one-point probability distribution function (pdf) for the density field of the interstellar medium using numerical simulations that successively redu…
Multifractal Scaling, Geometrical Diversity, and Hierarchical Structure in the Cool Interstellar Medium
David W. Chappell, John Scalo
Multifractal scaling (MFS) refers to structures that can be described as a collection of interwoven fractal subsets which exhibit power-law spatial scaling behavior with a range of…
Self-Organized Large-Scale Coherence in Simulations of Galactic Star Formation
David Chappell, John Scalo
It is often assumed that galaxies cannot generate large-scale coherent star- forming activity without some organizing agent, such as spiral density waves, bars, large-scale instabi…
