Star clusters stand at the intersection of much of modern astrophysics: the ISM, gravitational
dynamics, stellar evolution, and cosmology. Here, we review observations and theoretical …

Star formation lies at the center of a web of processes that drive cosmic evolution:
generation of radiant energy, synthesis of elements, formation of planets, and development …

The pressure exerted by the radiation of young stars may be an important feedback
mechanism that drives turbulence and winds in forming star clusters and the disks of …

Stars do not generally form in isolation. Instead, they form in clusters, and in these clustered
environments, newborn stars can have profound effects on one another and on their parent …

Galactic winds from star-forming galaxies are crucial to the process of galaxy formation and
evolution, regulating star formation, shaping the stellar mass function and the mass …

We compare high angular resolution mid-infrared (mid-IR) and Atacama Large Millimeter/
submillimeter Array (ALMA) far-infrared (far-IR) images of twelve nearby (median 21 Mpc) …

Star formation is a multi-scale, multi-physics problem ranging from the size scale of
molecular clouds (∼ 10 ∼10 s pc) down to the size scales of dense prestellar cores (∼ 0.1 …

We present radiation hydrodynamic simulations of collapsing protostellar cores with initial
masses of 30, 100, and 200 M⊙. We follow their gravitational collapse and the formation of …

A significant amount of matter in supercritical (or super-Eddington) accretion flow is blown
away by radiation force, thus forming outflows; however, the properties of such radiation …

Radiation pressure on dust grains may be an important mechanism in driving winds in a
wide variety of astrophysical systems. However, the efficiency of the coupling between the …
