Do stars still form in molecular gas within CO-dark dwarf galaxies?

Autor: Whitworth, David J., Smith, Rowan J., Glover, Simon C. O., Tress, Robin, Watkins, Elizabeth J, Feng, Jian-Cheng, Brucy, Noe, Klessen, Ralf S., Clark, Paul C.

In the Milky Way and other main-sequence galaxies, stars form exclusively in molecular gas, which is traced by CO emission. However, low metallicity dwarf galaxies are often `CO-dark' in the sense that CO emission is not observable even at the high r

Filamentary Molecular Cloud Formation via Collision-induced Magnetic Reconnection in Cold Neutral Medium

Autor: Kong, Shuo, Smith, Rowan J., Whitworth, David, Hamden, Erika T.

We have investigated the possibility of molecular cloud formation via the Collision-induced Magnetic Reconnection (CMR) mechanism of the cold neutral medium (CNM). Two atomic gas clouds with conditions typical of the CNM were set to collide at the in

A crucial aspect in addressing the challenge of measuring the core mass function, that is pivotal for comprehending the origin of the initial mass function, lies in constraining the temperatures of the cores. We aim to measure the luminosity, mass, c

The interstellar medium in the Milky Way's Central Molecular Zone (CMZ) is known to be strongly magnetised, but its large-scale morphology and impact on the gas dynamics are not well understood. We explore the impact and properties of magnetic fields
