Pairing mechanisms for binary stars
M. B. N. Kouwenhoven, A. G. A. Brown, S. P. Goodwin +2
Knowledge of the binary population in stellar groupings provides important information about the outcome of the star forming process in different environments. Binarity is also a k…
The Origin of the IMF from Core Mass Functions
Simon P. Goodwin, A. P. Whitworth, D. Ward-Thompson
We examine the initial mass functions (IMFs) of stars produced by different molecular core mass functions. Simulations suggest that more massive cores produce more stars, so we pro…
Simulating Supernovae Remnants in Gas Clouds
Simon Goodwin, Frazer Pearce, Peter Thomas
The Hydra -body hydrodynamics code has been modified to model, from the end of the Sedov phase, the effects of supernovae on the surrounding medium. The motivation is to investi…
The local to global ratio and the SNe Ia results
Simon P. Goodwin, Peter A. Thomas, Andrew J. Barber +2
The effects of differences between the local and global values of the Hubble parameter on the cosmologies consistent with studies of high-redshift Type Ia supernovæare discussed. I…
