[Astronomy seminar] Astronomy departmental seminar September 27 at 10:30am - Jonathan Henshaw (John Moores University)

[Astronomy seminar announcements]

Dear all,

The next weekly SU astronomy departmental seminar that will take place this Friday September 27, at 10:30am in room FC61 (AlbaNova building, 6th floor) and on zoom (https://stockholmuniversity.zoom.us/j/61550693125).

--------------------

Speaker: Jonathan Henshaw (John Moores University)
Title: Star formation in the Central Molecular Zone of the Milky Way
Event: https://indico.fysik.su.se/event/8757/

Abstract: The Central Molecular Zone (CMZ) is a ring-like accumulation of molecular gas in the innermost few hundred parsecs of the Milky Way, generated by the inward transport of matter driven by the Galactic bar. The CMZ is the most extreme star-forming environment in the Galaxy. The unique combination of large-scale dynamics and extreme interstellar medium conditions, characterized by high densities, temperatures, pressures, turbulent motions, and strong magnetic fields, make the CMZ an ideal region for testing current star and planet formation theories. In this talk, I will review the recent observational and theoretical advances in the field, and combine these to draw a comprehensive, multi-scale and multi-physics picture of the cycle of matter and energy in the context of star formation in the closest galactic nucleus.

We look forward to seeing many of you there. Thanks!

Anjasha and Mingjie
