Dr. Seamus Clarke
My research focuses on using hydrodynamic simulations to study how the diffuse gas of the Interstellar medium (ISM) is able to condense into filaments and cores, leading to the formation of stars. I'm especially interested in the interplay between gravity and turbulence in dense gas filaments and the role this has on fragmentation. I am also interested in the chemical evolution of the ISM as gas moves from the diffuse gas into dense cores, and how this influences how these structures are seen when observed with dust and molecular line tracers. visit site |
