Here we model a star forming factory in which the continuous creation of stars results in a highly concentrated, massive (globular cluster-like) stellar system...
On the Formation of Spheroidal Stellar Systems and the Nature of Supersonic Turbulence in Star-forming Regions
Models of the origin of spheroidal stellar systems, or cluster formation scenarios, need to account for empirical correlations both between scale and velocity...
On the functional form of the metallicity-giant planet correlation
Context. It is generally accepted that the presence of a giant planet is strongly dependent on the stellar metallicity. A stellar mass dependence has also been...
On the Gas Content, Star Formation Efficiency, and Environmental Quenching of Massive Galaxies in Protoclusters at z ≈ 2.0─2.5
We present ALMA Band 6 (ν = 233 GHz, λ = 1.3 mm) continuum observations toward 68 “normal” star-forming galaxies within two Coma-like progenitor structures at z...
On the generation of the net circular polarization observed in solar faculae
The net circular polarization observed in solar faculae (Stenflo et al., 1984) follows a law expected from the combination of velocity and magnetic field...
The GJ 436 system contains a transiting planet GJ 436 b which is a hot analogue of Neptune on an eccentric orbit. Recently, two additional transiting sub-Earth...
On the Heating Efficiency Derived from Observations of Young Super Star Clusters in M82
Here, we discuss the mechanical feedback that massive stellar clusters provide to the interstellar medium of their host galaxy. We apply an analytic theory...
In this paper, we investigate the eclipse timing of the polar binary HU Aquarii that has been observed for almost two decades. Recently, Qian et al. attributed...
On the importance of the few most massive stars: The ionizing cluster of NGC 588
We present the results of a double analysis of the ionizing cluster in NGC 588, a giant HII region (GHR) in the outskirts of the nearby galaxy M 33. For this...
