Star Formation in the Milky Way and Nearby Galaxies

open access: yesAnnual Review of Astronomy and Astrophysics, 2012
We review progress over the past decade in observations of large-scale star formation, with a focus on the interface between extragalactic and Galactic studies.

HH 80/81: Structure and Kinematics of the Fastest Protostellar Outflow

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Hubble Space Telescope (HST) images obtained in 2018 are combined with archival HST data taken in 1995 to detect changes and measure proper motions in the HH 80/81 shock complex, which is powered by the fastest known jet driven by a forming star, the ...

Star Formation in the LMC: Gravitational Instability and Dynamical Triggering [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Evidence for triggered star formation is difficult to establish because energy feedback from massive stars tend to erase the interstellar conditions that led to the star formation.

Cluster formation versus star formation rates around six regions in the LMC [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
The stellar population and star clusters around six regions in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) are studied to understand the correlation between star formation and cluster formation rates.

A fundamental test for stellar feedback recipes in galaxy simulations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Direct comparisons between galaxy simulations and observations that both reach scales < 100 pc are strong tools to investigate the cloud-scale physics of star formation and feedback in nearby galaxies.

Membership Analysis and 3D Kinematics of the Star-forming Complex around Trumpler 37 Using Gaia-DR3

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Identifying and characterizing young populations of star-forming regions are crucial to unraveling their properties. In this regard, Gaia-DR3 data and machine-learning tools are very useful for studying large star-forming complexes.

Calibration of star formation rate tracers for short- and long-lived star formation episodes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
To derive the history of star formation in the Universe a set of calibrated star formation rate tracers at different wavelengths is required. The calibration has to consistently take into account the effects of extinction, star formation regime (short or

Insights on the Sun Birth Environment in the Context of Star Cluster Formation in Hub–Filament Systems

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023
Cylindrical molecular filaments are observed to be the main sites of Sunlike star formation, while massive stars form in dense hubs at the junction of multiple filaments.

The Principal Component Analysis Filtering Method for an Unbiased Spectral Survey of Complex Organic Molecules

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
A variety of interstellar complex organic molecules (COMs) have been detected in various physical conditions. However, in the protostellar and protoplanetary environments, their complex kinematics make line profiles blend together and the line strength ...

Dust and Gas as Seeds for Metal-Poor Star Formation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
I address the issue of dust and gas as seeds for metal-poor star formation by reviewing what we know about star formation in nearby dwarf galaxies and its relationship to the gas and dust.
