The interaction between a molecular cloud and an external agent (e.g., a supernova remnant, plasma jet, radiation, or another cloud) is a common phenomenon throughout the Universe and can significantly change the star formation rate within a galaxy. This

The LEGO Large Program: Constraining the Physics of Line Emission in Galaxy Observations [PDF]
The IRAM Large Program LEGO studies molecular clouds in the Milky Way to constrain the physics controlling molecular line emission in galaxies. This is done by imaging two dozen clouds with setups that provide continuous spectral coverage of about 85–115

Making it Rain: Cloud-Based Molecular Simulations for Everyone
We present a user-friendly front-end for running molecular dynamics (MD) simulations using the OpenMM toolkit on the Google Colab framework. Our goals are (1) to highlight the usage of a cloud-computing scheme for educational purposes for a hands-on ...

The Galactic Center Molecular Cloud Survey. I. A Steep Linewidth-Size Relation & Suppression of Star Formation [PDF]
The Central Molecular Zone (CMZ; inner $\sim{}200~\rm{}pc$) of the Milky Way is a star formation (SF) environment with very extreme physical properties.

Atmospheric organic matter in clouds: exact masses and molecular formula identification using ultrahigh-resolution FT-ICR mass spectrometry [PDF]
Clouds alter the composition of atmospheric aerosol by acting as a medium for interactions between gas- and particulate-phase substances. To determine the cloud water atmospheric organic matter (AOM) composition and study the cloud processing of aerosols,

Star cluster formation in a turbulent molecular cloud self-regulated by photoionization feedback [PDF]
Most stars in the Galaxy are believed to be formed within star clusters from collapsing molecular clouds. However, the complete process of star formation, from the parent cloud to a gas-free star cluster, is still poorly understood.

Cloud-Based Software Architecture for Fully Automated Point-of-Care Molecular Diagnostic Device
This paper proposes a cloud-based software architecture for fully automated point-of-care molecular diagnostic devices. The target system operates a cartridge consisting of an extraction body for DNA extraction and a PCR chip for amplification and ...

Molecular Clouds in Spiral Galaxies [PDF]
A large observational program investigating the 2.6 mm CO line in spiral galaxies is being conducted by myself and Nick Scoville using the 14 m telescope of the Five College Radio Astronomy Observatory (HPBW = 50″). Thus far we have observed 46 galaxies of types Sa, Sb, Sc and Irr, detected 31, and mapped 16.
