Abstract:
Stars form in clumpy, highly substructured environments. In this thesis I set up N-body simulations of substructured star forming regions and investigate the impact that the substructure has on the survival of the star forming regions. I also present a broad range of methods used in other fields to quantify and identify structure. I discuss their strengths and shortcomings and assess their suitability for use in astronomical contexts. I use the Q and Λ methods to compare the distributions of class I and class II sources in observed star forming regions to learn more about the dynamical evoluti

Abstract:
Molecules are abundant in many astrophysical environments. The observation of these molecules and the modelling of the chemistry that leads to their formation is a powerful tool for improving our understanding of the regions in which they are found. In this thesis, a chemical model is developed and applied to astrophysical shocks to understand a number of processes in star forming regions. Shocks often result in discontinuous changes in the temperature and density of the gases they affect. The turbulent fragmentation theory of star formation suggests that such shocks are responsible for the ov

The notion that low- to intermediate-mass young stellar objects (YSOs) gain mass at a constant rate during the early stages of their evolution appears to be challenged by observations of YSOs suffering sudden increases of the rate at which they gain mass from their circumstellar discs. Also, this idea that stars spend most of their lifetime with a low accretion rate and gain most of their final mass during short-lived episodes of high accretion bursts, helps to solve some long-standing problems in stellar evolution.

The interstellar matter in the Galaxy is concentrated in a thin layer close to the galactic plane, mostly in spiral arms. Most of the interstellar matter is in a form of atomic and molecular gas and only 1% of its mass is in a form of small (0.01 – 0.1 µm) dust grains which absorb and scatter the light of stars and cause the interstellar extinction. A part of interstellar gas and dust are in a diffuse form and fill the space with density which exponentially decreases with the distance from the galactic plane.

In this thesis we will combine dust polarization studies with kinematic analysis towards different star-forming regions.

Observations of star forming molecular clouds reveal clumpiness on all scales, both in the spectra of molecules and thermal continuum emission from the solid component of the interstellar medium, the dust. Recent, high resolution maps have allowed us to probe down to extremely small scales at which we see clumps of radii just several hundredths of a parsec. A good knowledge of the structure of these regions, and of the chemical processes occurring within, is crucial if we want to properly understand the early stages of star formation and the resulting stellar population.

Low-mass star-forming regions have a lifetime which is greater than their dynamical time and must therefore be, in an average sense, in mechanical equilibrium.

Specifically the equilibrium in the direction perpendicular to the ordered magnetic field is given by the Lorentz force, while that parallel to the field is given by an Alfvén wave pressure force.
