Formation of massive, dense cores by cloud–cloud collisions

Abstract We performed sub-parsec (∼ 0.014 pc) scale simulations of cloud–cloud collisions of two idealized turbulent molecular clouds (MCs) with different masses in the range of (0.76–2.67) × 10$^{4}\,M_{\odot }$ and with collision speeds of 5–30 km s−1. Those parameters are larger than in Takahira,...
