Introduction Introduction Star Formation: The fundamental cosmic (baryonic) process Determines cosmic fate of normal matter Star Formation Galaxy formation, evolution, IMF Elements (He => U) Clusters black holes (AGN, stellar) Light, K.E. of ISM Planet formation Conditions for life

Where planets also form Giant Molecular Cloud Core Gravitational Collapse & Fragmentation Rotation & Magnetic Fields Raw material for star birth Proto-stars, proto-binaries, proto-clusters Accretion disks, jets, & outflows Shrink size by 10 7 ; increase density by x 10 21 ! Star Formation Star Formation Planets C. Lada Most may form in clusters!

Star-Formation: SF occurs in Giant Molecular Clouds (GMCs): Decay of turbulence + Gravity + B Collapse => disks, jets => stars, planets Fragmentation: Non-hierachical multiples: disintegration Dense (mostly unbound) clusters: ~ 10 3 - 10 5 pc -3 90% of stars born in OB associations: Multiple SN Superbubbles => inject short-lived isotopes GMCs OB *s superbubbles Supershells / ringsgravity 20 - 50 Myr Galactic 'ecology'

Anatomy of a planetary system forming in an OB association

Disk mass-loss: UV Radiation => heatimg = > Mass – loss ~ 1 Myr r > GM / c 2 ~ 40 AU for Soft UV (91 < < 200 nm) ~ 5 AU for ionizing UV ( < 91 nm) (for Solar mass) Self-irradiation by central star vs. External irradiation by nearby massive star: L self (UV) / 4 d * 2 = L external (UV) / 4 d OB 2 L external (UV) ~ 10 49 photons / sec L self (UV) ~ 10 40 - 10 43 photons / sec
37
Impacts of the environment: Life of a massive star ~ 3 to 40 Myr ~ planet formation time-scale Clustering, multiplicity: - Close-encounters - Truncate, shock-heat disks UV radiation: - External + Self => Mass-lost in ~ few Myr UV dose: 10 42 – 10 45 t ( sec -1 ) Main-sequence star (3 – 30 Myr) Blue-supergiant (< 10 6 years) Supernova (1 year) Massive star winds, Supernovae: - Inject short-lived isotopes: 26 Al, 60 Fe
38
UV => Fast Growth of Planetesimals: Grain growth => Solids settle to mid-plane UV => Remove dust depleted gas => High metallicity in mid-plane Gravity => Instability => 1 - 100 km planetesimals - Fast Formation of 1 to 100 km planetesimals
39
Growing grains : Orion 114-426 (Throop et al. 2001)
41
Oldest meteorites: (CAIs: 4,567.6 Myr old = 0 ) Chondrules: +2 to 4 Myr 26 Al => 26 Mg (t 1/2 ~ 0.7 Myr) 60 Fe => stable elements (t 1/2 ~ 1.5 Myr) => Solar System formed in Orion-like OB association SN within few pc, few Myr of forming Solar System Supernovae: Supernovae:
42
Conclusions Conclusions Most stars form in Orion-like regions - Sibling star interactions - Jets => halt star formation Proto-planetary disks processed by UV - Gas lost in few x 10 6 years - Grain growth + sedimantation + UV => Prompt planetesimal formation Massive Stars: - Mutual interactions => high velocity stars (BN) => explosive outflows - HII regions => halt star formation - Supernavae: => Inject 60 Fe, 26 Al, …
