-body Simulation of Planetesimal Formation Through Gravitational Instability of a Dust Layer

Shugo Michikoshi, Shu-ichiro Inutsuka, Eiichiro Kokubo +1

We performed N-body simulations of a dust layer without a gas component and examined the formation process of planetesimals. We found that the formation process of planetesimals ca…

Dynamical Expansion of Ionization and Dissociation Front around a Massive Star : A Starburst Mechanism

Takashi Hosokawa, Shu-ichiro Inutsuka

We quantitatively examine the significance of star formation triggered in the swept-up shell around an expanding HII region. If the swept-up molecular gas is sufficiently massive,…

The First Jet in the Universe: Protostellar Jets from the First Stars

Masahiro N. Machida, Kazuyuki Omukai, Tomoaki Matsumoto +1

The protostellar jets driven by the formation of the first stars are studied by using MHD nested grid simulations. Starting from a slowly rotating spherical cloud of 5.1 times 10^4…

Dynamical Formation of the Dark Molecular Hydrogen Clouds around Diffuse HII Regions

Takashi Hosokawa, Shu-ichiro Inutsuka

We examine the triggering process of molecular cloud formation around diffuse HII regions. We calculate the time evolution of the shell as well as of the HII region in a two-phase…

Outflows driven by Giant Protoplanets

Masahiro N. Machida, Shu-ichiro Inutsuka, Tomoaki Matsumoto

We investigate outflows driven by a giant protoplanet using three-dimensional MHD nested grid simulations. We consider a local region around the protoplanet in the protoplanetary d…

Current Advances in the Methodology and Computational Simulation of the Formation of Low-Mass Stars

Richard I. Klein, Shu-ichiro Inutsuka, Paolo Padoan +1

Developing a theory of low-mass star formation ( to 3~M) remains one of the most elusive and important goals of theoretical astrophysics. The star-formation pro…
