Turbulent Fragmentation and Star Formation
Javier Ballesteros-Paredes
We review the main results from recent numerical simulations of turbulent fragmentation and star formation. Specifically, we discuss the observed scaling relationships, the ``quies…
Quiescent and coherent cores from gravoturbulent fragmentation
Ralf S. Klessen, Javier Ballesteros-Paredes, Enrique Vazquez-Semadeni +1
[abridged] We investigate the velocity structure of protostellar cores that result from non-magnetic numerical models of the gravoturbulent fragmentation of molecular cloud materia…
Dynamic cores in hydrostatic disguise
Javier Ballesteros-Paredes, Ralf S. Klessen, Enrique Vazquez-Semadeni
(Abrigded) We discuss the column density profiles of "cores" in 3D SPH numerical simulations of turbulent molecular clouds. The SPH scheme allows us to perform a high spatial resol…
A Holistic Scenario of Turbulent Molecular Cloud Evolution and Control of the Star Formation Efficiency. First Tests
E. Vazquez-Semadeni, J. Ballesteros-Paredes, R. S. Klessen
We compile a holistic scenario for molecular cloud (MC) evolution and control of the star formation efficiency (SFE), and present a first set of numerical tests of it. A {\it lossy…
