Mini-workshop on Star formation in the Local Group
Center of Astronomy and Gravitation, National Taiwan Normal University
This workshop aims to bring together some domestic and foreign researchers working on topics related to Galactic and extragalactic star formation. Everybody interested is welcome to participate.
The mini-workshop consists of 20 minute presentations from the invited speakers with ample time for discussion sessions over two days (depending on the number of speakers). The talks will cover different topics related to the structure and properties of molecular clouds, collapsing cores/early stages of star formation, the impact of the galactic environments, magnetic fields and shear on molecular gas, and turbulence.
