OB Associations and their origins

NJ Wright - New Astronomy Reviews, 2020 - Elsevier
OB associations are unbound groups of young stars made prominent by their bright OB
members, and have long been thought to be the expanded remnants of dense star clusters …

The APOGEE-2 survey of the orion star-forming complex. II. Six-dimensional structure

M Kounkel, K Covey, G Suárez… - The Astronomical …, 2018 - iopscience.iop.org
We present an analysis of spectroscopic and astrometric data from APOGEE-2 and Gaia
DR2 to identify structures toward the Orion Complex. By applying a hierarchical clustering …

Close companions around young stars

M Kounkel, K Covey, M Moe, KM Kratter… - The Astronomical …, 2019 - iopscience.iop.org
Multiplicity is a fundamental property that is set early during stellar lifetimes, and it is a
stringent probe of the physics of star formation. The distribution of close companions around …

The life and times of giant molecular clouds

M Chevance, MR Krumholz, AF McLeod… - arXiv preprint arXiv …, 2022 - arxiv.org
Giant molecular clouds (GMCs) are the sites of star formation and stellar feedback in
galaxies. Their properties set the initial conditions for star formation and their lifecycles …
