2 Overview Motivation Molecular Clouds Young Stellar Objects Multiplicity of YSO Orion Molecular Cloud Aims of my thesis
3 Motivation Binary and Multiple system formation important for star formation process Understanding of protobinary formation is related to the evolution of the CMF (Core Mass Function) & how the CMF is related to the IMF Confirm that protostellar Multiplicities are higher than for main sequence stars. Why/What disrupts these systems?
4 Molecular Clouds Stahler & Palla
5 From Cloud to Star Cloud Clump Core
6 Cloud M 2-15 pc n cm -3 (H2) 10 K
7 Clump M pc n cm -3 (H2) K
8 Core M pc n cm -3 (H2) 8-12 K
9 Core M pc n cm -3 (H2) 8-12 K
10 Young Stellar Objects (YSO)
11 From Clump to Core Isothermal phase Cloud collapse at free fall 10 K density too less grav. energy --> thermal energy --> mm-radiation temperature still low ongoing collapse
12 Class 0 peak emission:sub-mm 10 4 years early accretion adiabatic phase
13 Class 0 adiabatic phase density increases --> opacity too Energy released by contraction can t escape --> T rises pressure built up --> contraction stops hydrostatic equilibrium only cloud detectable - dust radiation as a black body
14 Class I - IR Protostar peak-emission: far-ir 10 5 years main accretion phase Stahler & Palla
15 Class I - IR Protostar envelope still rains down onto the core accretion shock waves Core heats up T high enough to dissipate the atoms Energy spent is not longer available for stabilisation of the core --> 2. Collapse (till hydrostatic. equilibrium.)
16 IR-Protostar still accreting accretion luminosity T= 1000 K covered by envelope heating molecular cloud inside heating up to 1500 K dust evaporates --> opacity gap
17 Class II peak emission: near- IR 10 6 years classic T Tauri stars
18 Class III peak emission: visible 10 7 years,weak line T Tauri stars
19 YSO - SED Spectral index α=d log λf λ /d logλ Class 0: λ < 20 μm Class 1: α > 0.3 Class 2:-0.3 > α > -1.6 Class 3: α < -1.6 Stahler & Palla
20 YSO - SED Stahler & Palla
21 Multiplicity of YSO Multiple systems dominant at YSO environmental-dependent trend because of dichotomy btw high- & low-multiplicity star forming regions not clear if intrinsic difference in fragmentation process or result of dynamical disruptive interaction 60-80% of the field stars member of binary or multiple system multiplicity of PMS higher than MSS Class 0 observations show high multiplicity's at birth Contrast low-mass MSS less than 50% multiples
22 Binaries general Separations : 0.01 AU r 10 4 AU Field MSS 1/3 with r 1 AU PMS 0.01 AU r 1000 AU wide and close binaries formed during the star formation process formed through cloud rotation, magnetic field & turbulence --> numerical calculations
23 The Orion Molecular Cloud Complex nebular, dark clouds & young stars Ly diameter of 100 Ly active star forming region Stahler & Palla

28 VISIR/VLT Separation: 1244,62 AU, 4162,09 AU, 2979,20 AU N-Band
29 separations
