Probing the star-forming ISM with fine structure lines

Cardiff University

Cardiff School of Physics and Astronomy

Supersonic turbulent motions are thought to play a major role in the star formation process in galaxies. Theories have suggested that turbulence is responsible for shaping the interstellar medium (ISM), regulating star formation, and even setting the masses of stars as they form in young clusters.
