Isolating signatures of major cloud-cloud collisions using position-velocity diagrams
T. J. Haworth, E. J. Tasker, Y. Fukui +6
Collisions between giant molecular clouds are a potential mechanism for triggering the formation of massive stars, or even super star clusters. The trouble is identifying this proc…
