ISM through the [CII] looking “glass”
This bite explores a novel framework for simulating the 158 micron [CII] emission from galaxies in EAGLE simulations.
The Giant Bubble Driving Nearly All Nearby Star Formation
We’ve known for some time that we reside in the Local Bubble, a cavity of low-density gas excavated by an orchestra of dying stars ~15 Myrs ago. Today’s authors find that this Bubble’s expansion is driving nearly all nearby star formation.
The Recipe For Star Cluster Soup
Making a star cluster from scratch is no easy task. Today’s paper addresses the big question: what does it take to get the recipe right?
Going with the Outflow
The closest look yet at the mysterious outflows from high mass newborn stars.
Meet the AAS Keynote Speakers: Dr. Blakesley Burkhart
Ever wondered what role turbulence and other aspects of fluid dynamics play in the formation of stars in galaxies? Find out at Dr. Burkhart’s #AAS238 Annie Jump Cannon Prize lecture on Tuesday, 8th June!
Inflating HII Regions Cause Star Formation to Pop!
When HII regions expand, they look like an inflating balloon. But what happens after that balloon pops?
