Abstract:

Stars form when filaments and dense cores in molecular clouds fragment and collapse due to self-gravity. In the most basic analyses of gravitational stability, the competition between self-gravity and thermal pressure sets the critical (i.e. maximum stable) mass of spheres and the critical line density of cylinders. Previous work has considered additional support from magnetic fields and turbulence. Here, we consider the effects of non-ionizing radiation, specifically the inward radiation pressure force that acts on dense structures embedded in an isotropic radiation field. Using hydrostatic,

Abstract:

The formation of stars begins with the fragmentation of molecular clouds and the formation of dense cores. This fragmentation process can either be the result of classical gravitational instabilities or triggered by some external event. The gas and dust of young protoclusters often hold the imprints of the initial conditions and triggers of that specific star forming episode. In this context, my thesis work is a study of the gas properties of young protoclus- ters within the Gould Belt. The first part of my work consists of a detailed study of the young Serpens star forming region with CO isot

Abstract:

High-mass stars form within star clusters from dense, molecular regions (DMRs), but is the process of cluster formation slow and hydrostatic or quick and dynamic? We link the physical properties of high-mass star-forming regions with their evolutionary stage in a systematic way, using Herschel and Spitzer data. In order to produce a robust estimate of the relative lifetimes of these regions, we compare the fraction of DMRs above a column density associated with high-mass star formation, N(H-2) > 0.4-2.5 x 10(22) cm(-2), in the "starless" (no signature of stars >= 10 M circle dot forming) and s

Abstract:

This thesis primarily uses submillimetre molecular line data from HARP, a heterodyne array on the James Clerk Maxwell Telescope (JCMT), to further investigate star formation in the Ophiuchus L1688 cloud. HARP was used to observe CO J = 3-2 isotopologues: 12CO, 13CO and C18O; and the dense gas tracer HCO+ J = 4-3. A method for calculating molecular line contamination in the SCUBA-2 450 and 850 μm dust continuum data was developed, which can be used to convert 12CO J =6-5and J =3-2 maps of integrated intensity (K km s−1) to molecular line flux (mJy beam−1) contaminating the continuum emission.

Abstract:

Using a sample of nearly half a million galaxies, intersected by over 7 million lines of sight from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Data Release 12, we trace H alpha + [N II] emission from a galactocentric projected radius, r(p), of 5 kpc to more than 100 kpc. The emission flux surface brightness is alpha r(p) 1.9 +/- 0.4. We obtain consistent results using only the Ha or [N II] flux. We measure a stronger signal for the bluer half of the target sample than for the redder half on small scales, r(p) < 20 kpc. We obtain a 3 sigma detection of H alpha + [N II] emission in the 50-100 kpc r(p) bin. Th

Abstract:

Active galactic nuclei are thought to play a major role in the formation and evolution of galaxies, providing mechanisms for feedback from the supermassive black hole (SMBH) to its hosting galaxy and the intergalactic medium. In co-evolutionary scenarios, the SMBH properties are strictly connected to those of the host galaxy, in either high redshift quasars and in local Seyfert nuclei. Local Seyfert galaxies hosting both SMBHs and star forming regions, can be considered as the nearest counterparts of high redshift sub-mm heavily dust obscured star forming galaxies, where a significant fraction

This thesis presents an exploration of stars and gas in the halo of our Galaxy. A sample of 8321 field horizontal branch (FHB) stars was selected from the Hamburg/ESO Survey. The stars make excellent tracers of the Milky Way halo, and we studied the kinematics of a subset of the HES FHB stars, comparing their velocity dispersions to those predicted by several models. Since these stars are intrinsically luminous, hot and numerous they make ideal probes of the distances to high-velocity clouds (HVCs) - clouds of neutral hydrogen gas whose distances are largely unknown and which do not fit simple

Abstract:

Under-platform damper is a device used in turbo engines to attenuate forced vibration amplitude and prevent high cycle fatigue of turbine blades, which are caused by hot gas flow and the vibration of engine rotor. The device itself is a piece of metal and during service it is loaded by centrifugal force against the platform underside of two adjacent blades. The relative movement of the blade platforms produces possible slip on the damper surfaces that dissipates the vibration energy through heat induced by friction. Although the damper is a simple device, it is difficult to predict and optim

Abstract:

In this second installment of the series, we look at the internal kinematics of the multiple stellar populations of the globular cluster omega Centauri in one of the parallel Hubble Space Telescope (HST) fields, located at about 3.5 hal-flight radii from the center of the cluster. Thanks to the over 15 yr long baseline and the exquisite astrometric precision of the HST cameras, well-measured stars in our proper-motion catalog have errors as low as similar to 10 mu as yr(-1), and the catalog itself extends to near the hydrogen-burning limit of the cluster. We show that second-generation (2G) st

Abstract:

We study the dynamics, kinematics and statistics of resonant and quasiresonant three-wave interactions appearing in models of geophysical flow. In these dispersive wave systems, the phenomenon of nonlinear resonance broadening plays a significant role across all three different branches of wave turbulence theory: from the statistical, to the discrete, and even the mesoscopic, formed as an intermediate regime between the two. The principal aim of this thesis is to understand the processes by which resonance broadening can induce a transition between each of these three different regimes. Beginn
