A Brief Update on the CMZoom Survey
Cara Battersby, Eric Keto, Qizhou Zhang +16
The inner few hundred parsecs of the Milky Way, the Central Molecular Zone (CMZ), is our closest laboratory for understanding star formation in the extreme environments (hot, dense…
Seeding the Galactic Centre gas stream: gravitational instabilities set the initial conditions for the formation of protocluster clouds
J. D. Henshaw, S. N. Longmore, J. M. D. Kruijssen
Star formation within the Central Molecular Zone (CMZ) may be intimately linked to the orbital dynamics of the gas. Recent models suggest that star formation within the dust ridge…
Molecular gas kinematics of the CMZ: Great oaks from little acorns grow
J. D. Henshaw
The central molecular zone (CMZ) hosts some of the most massive and dense molecular clouds and star clusters in the Galaxy, offering an important window into star formation under e…
Widespread deuteration across the IRDC G035.39-00.33
A. T. Barnes, S. Kong, J. C. Tan +4
Infrared Dark Clouds (IRDCs) are cold, dense regions that are usually found within Giant Molecular Clouds (GMCs). Ongoing star formation within IRDCs is typically still deeply embe…
Molecular gas kinematics within the central 250 pc of the Milky Way
J. D. Henshaw, S. N. Longmore, J. M. D. Kruijssen +23
Using spectral-line observations of HNCO, N2H+, and HNC, we investigate the kinematics of dense gas in the central ~250 pc of the Galaxy. We present SCOUSE (Semi-automated multi-CO…
Using young massive star clusters to understand star formation and feedback in high-redshift-like environments
Steven Longmore, Ashley Barnes, Cara Battersby +9
The formation environment of stars in massive stellar clusters is similar to the environment of stars forming in galaxies at a redshift of 1 - 3, at the peak star formation rate de…
