Journal Club for March 22

Literature survey:

Klessen Heitsch MacLow 2000

  • Collapse can only be prevented with unrealistically short wavelength driving
  • Realistic driving ength gives observed core formation rates
  • Discuss various dispersion relations for jeans analysis with turbulence
  • Reference Bonazzola 1992 which has a critical spectra for support of alpha = 3 (outflow turb?)
  • SPH and Lagrangian 3D Hydro Periodic 64 Jeans Masses
  • Drive with various scales for 1 crossing time and then switch on self-gravity
  • Forcing patterns described in MacLow 1998 and 1999

Heitsch Maclow Klessen 2000

  • Similar to above but with MHD
  • Density contrasts are lessened because of magnetic pressure
  • Flow is organized into sheets - more clustered

Ossenkiof Klessen Heitsch

  • Applied delta variance technique to self gravitating turbulence
  • Periodic Box
  • Density spectra has positive slope when self-gravity is important
  • Propose to compare it with dust observations instead of 12CO to have a higher density contrast range
  • 2563

Heitsch et al 2005

  • Non-gravitating hydro colliding flows with cooling
  • NTSI, KH, TI, but no discussion of Richtmeyer-Meshkov instability (Impulsive-accelerating RT instability)
  • Look at 'core' properties (though 2D and no SG)

Heitsch et al 2006 "Birth of Molecular Clouds"

  • Extended 2005 work to 3D
  • no sg and hydro
  • sinusoidal interface
  • .5 particles/cc
  • periodic (open in 2D)

Audit & Hennebelle 2005

  • 2D colliding flows

Heitsch et al 2006 "Magnetized Non-Linear thin shell instability -2D"

  • 2D MHD using PROTEUS
  • Fields weaken or suppress NTSI

Heitsch et al 2006 "Cloud Dispersal in Turbulent Flows"

  • no sg- looked at turbulent dispersal of clouds

Heitsch, Stone, and Hartmann 2008 "Effects of Magnetic Field Strencth and Orientation on Molecular Cloud Formation"

  • Athena 3D 2563 - no sg - mhd
  • Fields are important to resulting structure
  • Fields normal to flow favor filamentary structure in collision plane
  • Fields perpendicular to flow (ie y ) suppress ntsi along field axis (ky /= 0) and give an extended slab with filaments normal to field

Heitsch, Hartmann, and Burkert "Fragmentation of Shocked Flows: Gravity, Turbulence, and Cooling"

  • Theory paper
  • Star formation happens soon after MC formation
  • Density enhancements are produced along with MC - problem with 'condensation models'
  • Nead non-linear density enhancements - faster than gravity
  • Discuss TI, GI, NTSI, KHI
  • Phase diagrams with lines outlining dominate instabilities
  • Dynamical and thermal instabilities dominate on small scales
  • Thermal fragmentatation dominates gravitational fragmentation during cloud formation
  • TI alone cannot produce jeans unstable clumps… need additional global compression

VazqueszSemadeni 2006

  • Velocity perturbations

Inoue and Inutsuka 2012

  • Colliding Flows in 3D
  • Richtmyer-Meshkov instability
  • No dynamical sg
  • 10243

Short characteristics Solve transfer equation across domain using time independent Stellar atmosphere code

Beam test Shadow test

Modified Gudonov method

source terms included in reconstruction step semi-implicit picard iteration scheme ensures stability
