On the effective turbulence driving mode of molecular clouds formed in disc galaxies
Keitaro Jin, Diane M. Salim, Christoph Federrath +3
We determine the physical properties and turbulence driving mode of molecular clouds formed in numerical simulations of a Milky Way-type disc galaxy with parsec-scale resolution. T…

The SAMI Galaxy Survey: a new method to estimate molecular gas surface densities from star formation rates
Christoph Federrath, Diane M. Salim, Anne M. Medling +16
Stars form in cold molecular clouds. However, molecular gas is difficult to observe because the most abundant molecule (H2) lacks a permanent dipole moment. Rotational transitions…
