Initial conditions for star formation in clusters: physical and kinematical structure of the starless core Oph A-N6
Tyler L. Bourke, Philip C. Myers, Paola Caselli +4
We present high spatial (<300 AU) and spectral (0.07 km/s) resolution Submillimeter Array observations of the dense starless cluster core Oph A-N6, in the 1 mm dust continuum and t…
Variations in the Mass Functions of Clustered and Isolated Young Stellar Objects
Helen Kirk, Philip C. Myers
We analyze high quality, complete stellar catalogs for four young (roughly 1 Myr) and nearby (within ~300 pc) star-forming regions: Taurus, Lupus3, ChaI, and IC348, which have been…
Star formation in dense clusters
Philip C. Myers
A model of core-clump accretion with equally likely stopping describes star formation in the dense parts of clusters, where models of isolated collapsing cores may not apply. Each…
A Correlation Between Surface Densities of Young Stellar Objects and Gas in Eight Nearby Molecular Clouds
R. A. Gutermuth, J. L. Pipher, S. T. Megeath +3
We report the discovery and characterization of a power law correlation between the local surface densities of Spitzer-identified, dusty young stellar objects and the column densit…
Filamentary condensations in a young cluster
Philip C. Myers
New models are presented for star-forming condensations in clusters. In each model, the condensation mass increases linearly with radius on small scales, and more rapidly on large…
Internal Motions in Starless Dense Cores
Chang Won Lee, Philip C. Myers
This paper discusses the statistics of internal motions in starless dense cores and the relation of these motions to core density and evolution. Four spectral lines from three mole…
