GMC Collisions as Triggers of Star Formation. III. Density and Magnetically Regulated Star Formation

We study giant molecular cloud (GMC) collisions and their ability to trigger star cluster formation. We further develop our three-dimensional magnetized, turbulent, colliding GMC simulations by implementing star formation subgrid models. Two such models are explored: (1) "Density-Regulated,&quo...
