Velocity Anisotropy in Self-Gravitating Molecular Clouds. I: Simulation
Frank Otto, Weiguang Ji, Hua-bai Li
The complex interplay between turbulence, magnetic fields, and self-gravity leads to the formation of molecular clouds out of the diffuse interstellar medium (ISM). One avenue of s…

Self-similar Fragmentation Regulated by Magnetic Fields in a Massive Star Forming Filament
Hua-bai Li, Ka Ho Yuen, Frank Otto +6
Most molecular clouds are filamentary or elongated. Among those forming low-mass stars, their long axes tend to be either parallel or perpendicular to the large-scale (10-100 pc) m…
