v29 v30 32 32 * Stars form from the collapse of self-gravitating clouds. These clouds can be modelled by Bonner-Ebert spheres, which are isothermal spheres in hydrostatic equilibrium. This numerical study aims to explore the stability of Bonner-Ebert spheres, their dynamics (i.e. rotation, MHD effects, turbulence), and the subset of conditions in which collapse is triggered in relation to star formation theory. 33 33 34 ''' Supersonic colliding clouds and star formation (Christina. [NorthCarolinaGroup University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill])'''34 '''[CollidingFlows Supersonic colliding clouds and star formation] (Christina, Jonathan. [NorthCarolinaGroup University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill])''' 35 35 * Studying star formation at the edge of colliding flows in large cloud formations. Exploring the effects of NTSI, thermal instability, and shear flows on star formation rates in these regions. 36 36 * [wiki:Clouds Module Explanation]
