The emerging timescale of young star clusters regulated by cluster stellar mass
Alex Pedrini, Angela Adamo, Daniela Calzetti +23
Quantifying the timescales of star cluster emergence from their natal clouds remains one of the main challenges in understanding the star formation process. These timescales are fu…
CO observations of the molecular gas in the galactic HII region Sh2-48; Evidence for cloud-cloud collision as a trigger of high-mass star formation
Kazufumi Torii, Yusuke Hattori, Mitsuhiro Matsuo +15
Sh2-48 is a Galactic HII region located at 3.8 kpc with an O9.5-type star identified at its center. As a part of the FOREST Unbiased Galactic plane Imaging survey using the Nobeyam…
Triggered O star formation in M20 via cloud-cloud collision: Comparisons between high-resolution CO observations and simulations
Kazufumi Torii, Yusuke Hattori, Keisuke Hasegawa +9
High-mass star formation is one of the top-priority issues in astrophysics. Recent observational studies are revealing that cloud-cloud collisions may play a role in high-mass star…
Isolating signatures of major cloud-cloud collisions II: The lifetimes of broad bridge features
T. J. Haworth, K. Shima, E. J. Tasker +5
We investigate the longevity of broad bridge features in position-velocity diagrams that appear as a result of cloud-cloud collisions. Broad bridges will have a finite lifetime due…
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…
The dangers of being trigger--happy
J. E. Dale, T. J. Haworth, E. Bressert
We examine the evidence offered for triggered star formation against the backdrop provided by recent numerical simulations of feedback from massive stars at or below giant molecula…
