Formation of OB Associations in Galaxies
Frank H. Shu, Ronald J. Allen, Susana Lizano +1
We consider the formation of OB associations from two perspectives: (a) the fractional gas consumption in star formation,epsilon, per dynamical time scale t_dyn in a galaxy, and (b…
Mean-Field Magnetohydrodynamics of Accretion Disks
Frank H. Shu, Daniele Galli, Susana Lizano +2
We consider the accretion process in a disk with magnetic fields that are dragged in from the interstellar medium by gravitational collapse. Two diffusive processes are at work in…
The building up of the disk galaxy M33 and the evolution of the metallicity gradient
Laura Magrini, Edvige Corbelli, Daniele Galli
The evolution of radial gradients of metallicity in disk galaxies and its relation with the disk formation are not well understood. Theoretical models of galactic chemical evolutio…
