分子云中的恒星形成

Star Formation in Molecular Clouds

Ralf S. Klessen

摘要:

恒星和星团是由星际气体云的重力湍流破碎形成的。在银河系分子气体中普遍观察到的超音速湍流产生了强烈的密度波动,重力在密集和大质量区域占据主导地位。坍缩开始形成恒星。湍流起着双重作用。在全球范围内,它提供了支持,同时它可以促进局部崩溃。因此,恒星的诞生与母气云的动力学行为密切相关,母气云决定了原恒星形成的时间和地点,以及它们如何通过周围云物质的吸积收缩和质量增长。恒星形成气体的热力学行为在这一过程中起着至关重要的作用,并影响恒星质量函数以及新生星团的动力学性质。本讲座提供了一个关键的审查,我们目前的理解,ING恒星诞生和比较观测数据与竞争的理论模型。

英文摘要:

Stars and star clusters form by gravoturbulent fragmentation of interstellar gas clouds. The supersonic turbulence ubiquitously observed in Galactic molecular gas generates strong density fluctuations with gravity taking over in the densest and most massive regions. Collapse sets in to build up stars. Turbulence plays a dual role. On global scales it provides support, while at the same time it can promote local collapse. Stellar birth is thus intimately linked to the dynamical behavior of parental gas cloud, which governs when and where protostars form, and how they contract and grow in mass via accretion from the surrounding cloud material. The thermodynamic behavior of the star forming gas plays a crucial part in this process and influences the stellar mass function as well as the dynamic properties of the nascent stellar cluster. This lecture provides a critical review of our current understand- ing of stellar birth and compares observational data with competing theoretical models.
