First spatially resolved Na I and He I transitions towards an MYSO. Finding new tracers for the gaseous star/disc interface
Evgenia Koumpia, M. Koutoulaki, W. -J. de Wit +4
With steady observational advances, the formation of massive stars is being understood in more detail. Numerical models are converging on a scenario where accretion discs play a ke…
Momentum and energy injection by a wind-blown bubble into an inhomogeneous interstellar medium
J. M. Pittard
We investigate the effect of mass-loading from embedded clouds on the evolution of wind-blown bubbles. We use 1D hydrodynamical calculations and assume that the clouds are numerous…
Shocking interactions of supernova remnants with atomic and molecular clouds -- the interplay between shocks, thermal instability and gravity in the large cloud regime
M. M. Kupilas, J. M. Pittard, C. J. Wareing +1
Using the adaptive mesh refinement code MG, we perform 3D hydrodynamic simulations of a supernova-cloud interaction in the "large cloud regime". The cloud is initially atomic and e…
Exploring dust growth in the episodic WCd system WR140
J. W. Eatson, J. M. Pittard, S. Van Loo
The wind collision region (WCR) in a colliding wind binary (CWB) is a particularly violent place, as such, it is surprising that it is also a region where significant quantities of…
An exploration of dust grain growth within WCd systems using an advected scalar dust model
J. W. Eatson, J. M. Pittard, S. Van Loo
Dust production is one of the more curious phenomena observed in massive binary systems with interacting winds. The high temperatures, UV photon flux and violent shocks should dest…
How D-type HII region expansion depends on numerical resolution
J. M. Pittard, M. M. Kupilas, C. J. Wareing
We investigate the resolution dependence of HII regions expanding past their Strömgren spheres. We find that their structure and size, and the radial momentum that they attain at a…
