Radiation hydrodynamics simulations of the evolution of the diffuse ionized gas in disc galaxies
Bert Vandenbroucke, Kenneth Wood
There is strong evidence that the diffuse ionized gas (DIG) in disc galaxies is photoionized by radiation from UV luminous O and B stars in the galactic disc, both from observation…
Massive star formation via torus accretion: the effect of photoionization feedback
N. S. Sartorio, B. Vandenbroucke, D. Falceta-Goncalves +2
The formation of massive stars is a long standing problem. Although a number of theories of massive star formation exist, ideas appear to converge to a disk-mediated accretion scen…
Radiation hydrodynamic simulations of massive star formation via gravitationally trapped HII regions - Spherically symmetric ionised accretion flows
Kristin Lund, Kenneth Wood, Diego Falceta-Gonçalves +5
This paper investigates the gravitational trapping of HII regions predicted by steady-state analysis using radiation hydrodynamical simulations. We present idealised spherically sy…
Testing the stability of supersonic ionized Bondi accretion flows with radiation hydrodynamics
Bert Vandenbroucke, Nina S. Sartorio, Kenneth Wood +6
We investigate the general stability of 1D spherically symmetric ionized Bondi accretion onto a massive object in the specific context of accretion onto a young stellar object. We…
