Age spreads in star forming regions? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Rotation periods and projected equatorial velocities of pre-main-sequence (PMS) stars in star forming regions can be combined to give projected stellar radii. Assuming random axial orientation, a Monte-Carlo model is used to illustrate that distributions

Masers in Star Forming Regions [PDF]

open access: yesSymposium - International Astronomical Union, 1987
OH and H2O masers in star forming regions are important because they are readily detectable indicators of star formation and because they provide unique information on the kinematics and physical conditions in high density regions (106 – 1010 cm−3) surrounding young stars, regions which cannot be studied by other means at present.

Dusty magnetohydrodynamics in star-forming regions [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Plasma Physics, 2010
AbstractStar formation occurs in dark molecular regions where the number density of hydrogen nuclei nH exceeds 104 cm−3 and the fractional ionization is 10−7 or less. Dust grains with sizes ranging up to tenths of microns and perhaps down to tens of nanometers contain just less than 1% of the mass.

Organic Compounds in Star Forming Regions [PDF]

open access: yesOrigins of Life and Evolution of Biospheres, 2014
The influence of complex dust composition on the general chemical evolution of a prestellar core and the content of complex organic compounds is studied. It is shown that various component groups respond differently to the presence of a small dust population.

Near-infrared circular polarization survey in star-forming regions : Correlations and trends [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
We have conducted a systematic near-infrared circular polarization (CP) survey in star-forming regions, covering high-mass, intermediate-mass, and low-mass young stellar objects.

Star-Forming or Starbursting? The Ultraviolet Conundrum [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Compared to starburst galaxies, normal star forming galaxies have been shown to display a much larger dispersion of the dust attenuation at fixed reddening through studies of the IRX-beta diagram (the IR/UV ratio "IRX" versus the UV color "beta").

CHEMICAL EVOLUTION OF STAR-FORMING REGIONS

open access: yesAnnual Review of Astronomy and Astrophysics, 1998
▪ Abstract  Recent advances in the understanding of the chemical processes that occur during all stages of the formation of stars, from the collapse of molecular clouds to the assemblage of icy planetesimals in protoplanetary accretion disks, are reviewed.

Star Formation in Collision Debris: Insights from the modeling of their Spectral Energy Distribution [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
During galaxy-galaxy interactions, massive gas clouds can be injected into the intergalactic medium which in turn become gravitationally bound, collapse and form stars, star clusters or even dwarf galaxies.
