The Role of Angular Momentum Transport in Establishing the Accretion Rate--Protostellar Mass Correlation
Alexander L. DeSouza, Shantanu Basu
We model the mass accretion rate to stellar mass correlation that has been inferred from observations of intermediate to upper mass T Tauri stars---that is $\dot{M}…
The Luminosity of Population III Star Clusters
Alexander L. DeSouza, Shantanu Basu
We analyze the time evolution of the luminosity of a cluster of Population III protostars formed in the early universe. We argue from the Jeans criterion that primordial gas can co…
The Burst Mode of Accretion in Primordial Protostars
Eduard I. Vorobyov, Alexander L. DeSouza, Shantanu Basu
We study the formation and long-term evolution of primordial protostellar disks harbored by first stars using numerical hydrodynamics simulations in the thin-disk limit. The initia…
The Ejection of Low Mass Clumps During Star Formation
Shantanu Basu, Eduard I. Vorobyov, Alexander L. DeSouza
Modeling of the self-consistent formation and evolution of disks as a result of prestellar core collapse reveals an intense early phase of recurrent gravitational instability and c…
The Burst Mode of Accretion in Primordial Star Formation
A. L. DeSouza, E. I. Vorobyov, S. Basu
We present simulation results for the formation and long-term evolution of a primordial protostellar disk harbored by a first star. Using a 2+1D nonaxisymmetric thin disk numerical…
