20
Star Formation The central gases are heating as they fall into the newly forming protostar. The dark region has just developed a Jeans instability.
21
Matthew Bate simulation of collapse and fragmentation of 500 solar mass cloud to produce a cluster of 183 stars and bds including 40 multiple systems
22
Unfortunately, no good quantitative theory to predict star formation rate or stellar mass distribution ! IMF = Initial Mass Function Big question: Is it universal? (log m) = dN/d log m m - N is number of stars in logarithmic mass range log m + d log m = 1.35 Salpeter slope (logarithmic) in linear units (m)= dN/dm m - where = + 1 (= 2.35 Salpeter)

Birth Sequence trigger [SN, cloud-cloud, density wave] cloud fragments and collapses [Jeans mass and radius] early collapse isothermal - E radiated away interior becomes adiabatic [no heat transfer] - E trapped so T rises protostellar core forms [~ 5 AU] with free-falling gas above dust vaporizes as T increases convective period radiative period nuclear fusion begins [starts zero-age main sequence]

Low Mass Death - a White Dwarf degeneracy Pauli exclusion principle: no 2 electrons can be in the same state (position & momentum) as T increases, more states available P T at high density, collisions restricted P if all states full, gas is degenerate as star contracts, increases so becomes degenerate as T increases, degeneracy is lifted when He - C fusion starts, core is degenerate He flash removes degeneracy WDs are totally degenerate up to 1. 4 M degeneracy pressure stops the collapse

Pulsating stars: Asteroseismology Pulsations Only systematic way to study the stellar interior Pulsations are observed in stars all over the HR diagram ZZ Ceti stars
108
Pulsations in a star Pulsation period and amplitude depend on the average density. P 1/2 Low density long P, high amplitude High density short P, low amplitude Density profile decides how deep the pulsations penetrate in the star. (Deeper the penetration more we learn about the interior) Centrally condensed stars like our Sun have shallow pulsations Uniform density stars like white dwarfs have deep pulsations
109

113
P-L relation 1) measure m v with CCD 2) find P from light curve 3) use P-L to get M v 4) m-M d
115
White dwarfs show non-radial g-modes on account of their high gravity Periods of 100s to 1000s These modes are characterized by quantum numbers (k,l,m) similar to atomic orbitals Spherical gravitational potential Spherical electrostatic potential l determines the number of borders between hot and cool zones on the surface m is the number of borders that pass through the pole of the rotation axis k determines the number of times the pulsation wiggles from the center to the surface
