GMC Collisions as Triggers of Star Formation. VI. Collision-Induced Turbulence
Benjamin Wu, Jonathan C. Tan, Fumitaka Nakamura +2
We investigate collisions between giant molecular clouds (GMCs) as potential generators of their internal turbulence. Using magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) simulations of self-gravitatin…
GMC Collisions As Triggers of Star Formation. IV. The Role of Ambipolar Diffusion
Duncan Christie, Benjamin Wu, Jonathan C. Tan
We investigate the role of ambipolar diffusion (AD) in collisions between magnetized giant molecular clouds (GMCs), which may be an important mechanism for triggering star cluster…
GMC Collisions as Triggers of Star Formation. V. Observational Signatures
Thomas G. Bisbas, Kei E. I. Tanaka, Jonathan C. Tan +2
We present calculations of molecular, atomic and ionic line emission from simulations of giant molecular cloud (GMC) collisions. We post-process snapshots of the magneto-hydrodynam…
The Interstellar Medium and Star Formation of Galactic Disks. I. ISM and GMC properties with Diffuse FUV and Cosmic Ray Backgrounds
Qi Li, Jonathan C. Tan, Duncan Christie +2
We present a series of adaptive mesh refinement (AMR) hydrodynamic simulations of flat rotation curve galactic gas disks with a detailed treatment of the interstellar medium (ISM)…
