The role of interstellar filaments in regulating the star formation efficiency and shaping the initial mass function [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2015
AbstractRecent surveys at infrared and submillimeter wavelengths with the Spitzer and Herschel space observatories suggest that star formation in dense molecular gas is governed by essentially the same “laws” in nearby Galactic clouds and distant external galaxies. This raises the possibility of a unified picture for star formation in the Universe from

Filaments: Fad or Fundamental? [PDF]

open access: yes
Presentation Date: Friday, December 2, 2016. Location: Toronto, ON. Abstract: As the resolution of imaging of the dense interstellar medium has improved, we have gone from a very blobby view, featuring interstellar “clouds,” to a much more “stringy”

On the nature of star-forming filaments: II. Sub-filaments and velocities [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
We show that hydrodynamic turbulent cloud simulations naturally produce large filaments made up of a network of smaller and coherent subfilaments. Such simulations resemble observations of filaments and fibres in nearby molecular clouds. The subfilaments

The nature of the X-ray filaments around bow shock pulsar wind nebulae [PDF]

open access: yes
Context. We propose that the X-ray filaments emerging from selected bow shock pulsar wind nebulae are due to a charge-separated outflow of electrons and/or positrons escaping the nebula and propagating along the local Galactic magnetic field. Aims. The X-

The ALMA-QUARKS Survey: Fibers’ Role in Star Formation Unveiled in an Intermediate-mass Protocluster Region of the Vela D Cloud

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
In this paper, we present a detailed analysis of the IRS 17 filament within the intermediate-mass protocluster IRAS 08448-4343 (of ∼10 ^3 L _⊙ ), using ALMA data from the ATOMS 3 mm and QUARKS 1.3 mm surveys.

Brecciation at the grain scale within the lithologies of the Winchcombe Mighei‐like carbonaceous chondrite

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, Volume 59, Issue 5, Page 1068-1100, May 2024.
Abstract The Mighei‐like carbonaceous (CM) chondrites have been altered to various extents by water–rock reactions on their parent asteroid(s). This aqueous processing has destroyed much of the primary mineralogy of these meteorites, and the degree of alteration is highly heterogeneous at both the macroscale and nanoscale.

Reconstructing the 3D Structure of Filamentary Structures with the Elliptical Inverse Abel Transformation Method

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
The study of the volume density distribution of filamentary structures in molecular clouds is crucial for investigating the mechanism of star formation and can reveal the fragmentation process under the effects of gravitational collapse, magnetic fields,

Investigating the impact of x‐ray computed tomography imaging on soluble organic matter in the Murchison meteorite: Implications for Bennu sample analyses

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, Volume 59, Issue 1, Page 105-133, January 2024.
Abstract X‐ray computed tomography (XCT) is a valuable reconnaissance tool for three‐dimensional imaging and identification of distinct lithologies in extraterrestrial samples. It will be used as part of the preliminary examination of samples returned from asteroid (101955) Bennu by the Origins, Spectral Interpretation, Resource Identification, and ...
