Multiple protostellar outflows from a single protostar with a misaligned disk

Shingo Hirano, Yuri Aikawa, Masahiro N. Machida

We investigate how misalignment between the core angular momentum and the large-scale magnetic field affects protostellar outflows, and whether a single protostellar system can dri…

Effect of Magnetic Field on the Accretion Phase of Population III Star Formation

Masahiro N. Machida, Shingo Hirano, Shantanu Basu

We examine the impact of the magnetic field on Population III star formation by varying the magnetic field strength. We perform simulations with magnetic field strengths ranging fr…
