Gravoturbulent Star Cluster Formation
Ralf S. Klessen, Javier Ballesteros-Paredes, Yuexing Li +1
Stars form by gravoturbulent fragmentation of interstellar gas clouds. The supersonic turbulence ubiquitously observed in Galactic molecular gas generates strong density fluctuatio…
The Origin of Molecular Cloud Turbulence and its role on Determining the Star Formation Efficiency
Enrique Vazquez-Semadeni, Javier Ballesteros-Paredes, Ralf Klessen
We suggest that molecular cloud (MC) turbulence is a consequence of the very process of MC formation by collisions of larger-scale flows in the diffuse atomic gas, which generate t…
Virial theorem analysis of 3D numerical simulations of MHD self-gravitating turbulence
Mohsen Shadmehri, Enrique Vazquez-Semadeni, Javier Ballesteros-Paredes
We discuss the virial balance of all members of a cloud ensemble in numerical simulations of self-gravitating MHD turbulence. We first discuss the choice of reference frame for eva…
Cloud Statistics in Numerical Simulations of the ISM
J. Ballesteros-Paredes, E. Vazquez-Semadeni
We present preliminary results on the energy budgets of clouds in two-dimensional numerical simulations of the interstellar medium. Using an automated cloud-identification algorith…
