Projection effects in star-forming regions: I. Nearest-neighbour statistics and observational biases
A. T. Barnes, K. Morii, J. E. Pineda +9
Stars form as molecular clouds fragment into networks of dense cores, filaments, and subclusters. The characteristic spacing of these cores is a key observable imprint of fragmenta…
Chemical complexity in star formation induced by stellar feedback: cores shock-formed by the supernova remnant W44
G. Cosentino, I. Jiménez-Serra, F. Fontani +8
Low-velocity shocks from Supernova Remnants (SNRs) may set the physical and chemical conditions of star formation in molecular clouds. Recent evidence suggests that the Sun might h…
CO Depletion in Infrared Dark Clouds
G. Cosentino, J. C. Tan, C. Gainey +10
Infrared Dark Clouds (IRDCs) are cold, dense structures representative of the initial conditions of star formation. Many studies of IRDCs employ CO to investigate cloud dynamics. H…
Low-velocity large-scale shocks in the infrared dark cloud G035.39-00.33: bubble-driven cloud-cloud collisions
G. Cosentino, I. Jiménez-Serra, R. Liu +7
Low-velocity large-scale shocks impacting on the ISM may efficiently shape molecular clouds and trigger star formation within them. These shocks, both driven by galactic bubbles an…
Interaction between the Supernova Remnant W44 and the Infrared Dark Cloud G034.77-00.55: shock induced star formation?
G. Cosentino, I. Jiménez-Serra, A. T. Barnes +11
How Supernova Remnant (SNR) shocks impact nearby molecular clouds is still poorly observationally constrained. It is unclear if SNRs can positively or negatively affect clouds star…
