Turbulence and star formation efficiency in molecular clouds: solenoidal versus compressive motions in Orion B
Jan H. Orkisz, Jérôme Pety, Maryvonne Gerin +13
The nature of turbulence in molecular clouds is one of the key parameters that control star formation efficiency: compressive motions, as opposed to solenoidal motions, can trigger…
