Feedback and Formation of Massive Star Clusters in Giant Molecular Clouds
Jonathan C. Tan, Christopher F. McKee
It is well known that the energy input from massive stars dominates the thermal and mechanical heating of typical regions in the interstellar medium of galaxies. These effects are…
Outflow-Confined HII Regions and the Formation of Massive Stars by Accretion
Jonathan C. Tan, Christopher F. McKee
If massive stars form by disk accretion, then bipolar outflows should be generated as in the case of low-mass star formation. High accretion rates lead to high outflow rates and ma…
Mass Limits to Primordial Star Formation from Protostellar Feedback
Jonathan C. Tan, Christopher F. McKee
How massive were the first stars? This question is of fundamental importance for galaxy formation and cosmic reionization. Here we consider how protostellar feedback can limit the…
The Formation of Massive Stars and Star Clusters
Jonathan C. Tan, Christopher F. McKee
We model the formation of high-mass stars, specifying the accretion rate in terms of the instantaneous and final mass of the star, the ambient pressure of the star-forming region a…
