Prospects for Detecting Accretion Disks Associated with Massive Star Formation
PROSPECTS FOR DETECTING ACCRETION DISKS ASSOCIATED WITH MASSIVE STAR FORMATION Ed Churchwell University of Wisconsin Abstract It is argued that ALMA should be able to detect accretion disks associated with massive star formation during the rapid accretion phase via free-free emission from a shock-ionized envelope and via thermal dust emission after accretion ceases.
متن کاملGalactosynthesis: Halo Histories, Star Formation, and Disks
We investigate the effects of a variety of ingredients that must enter into a realistic model for disk-galaxy formation, focusing primarily on the Tully-Fisher (TF) relation and its scatter in several wavebands. In particular, we employ analytic distributions for halo-formation redshifts and halo spins, empirical star-formation rates and initial mass functions, realistic stellar populations, an...
متن کاملStar Formation Thresholds in Galactic Disks
We report the first results of a detailed study of the star formation law in a sample of 32 nearby spiral galaxies with well-measured rotation curves, HI and H2 (as traced by CO) surface density profiles, and new Hα CCD photometry. In this paper we present an atlas of Hα images and radial surface brightness profiles and describe a surface-density threshold in the star formation law. Prominent b...
متن کاملCritical Accretion Rate for Triggered Star Formation
We have reexamined the similarity solution for a self-gravitating isothermal gas sphere and examined implication to star formation in a turbulent cloud. When parameters are adequately chosen, the similarity solution expresses an accreting isothermal gas sphere bounded by a spherical shock wave. The mass and radius of the sphere increases in proportion to the time, while the central density decr...
