Studying the Earliest Stages of Star Formation
UW Space Place 2300 S. Park St., Suite LL-100, Madison, Wisconsin
press release: UW Space Place lecture by Dan Rybarczyk, UW-Madison Astronomy Dept.
Stars form in cold, dense clouds of gas and dust in galaxies. But where do these dense clouds come from? New research is revealing how dynamical processes like supernova explosions and supersonic cloud motions shape these important structures - rich not just in the ingredients for star formation, but also in some of the molecular building blocks of life.
The presentation will be offered both in person and virtually. To attend virtually, search for the UW Space Place YouTube channel that evening. If you cannot join us at that time, the talk will also be recorded for you to enjoy later.
