Ionisation in Turbulent Magnetic Molecular Clouds I. Effect on Density and Mass-to-Flux Ratio Structures

Nicole D. Bailey, Shantanu Basu, Paola Caselli

Previous studies show that the physical structures and kinematics of a region depend significantly on the ionisation fraction. In this paper, we extend our previous studies of the…

Kinematics in Partially Ionised Molecular Clouds: Implications for the Transition to Coherence

Nicole D. Bailey, Shantanu Basu, Paola Caselli

Bailey & Basu (2014) show analysis of density and mass-to-flux ratio maps for simulations with either an ionisation profile which takes into account photoionisation (step-like prof…

Non-Ideal Magnetohydrodynamic Simulations of the Two-Stage Fragmentation Model for Cluster Formation

Nicole D. Bailey, Shantanu Basu

We model molecular cloud fragmentation with thin disk non-ideal magnetohydrodynamic simulations that include ambipolar diffusion and partial ionization that transitions from primar…

Magnetic Fields and the Formation of Cores and Disks

Shantanu Basu, Nicole D. Bailey, Wolf B. Dapp

We review recent results of non-ideal magnetohydrodynamic models for the fragmentation of molecular clouds and the collapse of cloud cores to form protostar-disk systems. Thin-disk…

The Effect of Magnetic Fields and Ambipolar Diffusion on Core Mass Functions

Nicole D. Bailey, Shantanu Basu

Linear analysis of the formation of protostellar cores in planar magnetic interstellar clouds yields information about length scales involved in star formation. Combining these len…

Two-Stage Fragmentation for Cluster Formation: Analytical Model and Observational Considerations

Nicole D. Bailey, Shantanu Basu

Linear analysis of the formation of protostellar cores in planar magnetic interstellar clouds shows that molecular clouds exhibit a preferred length scale for collapse that depends…
