Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Combining Herschel Space Observatory far infrared observations and interstellar polarization observations, it is shown molecular clouds are formed by ensembles of filaments which are perpendicularly threaded by the magnetic field. We obtained the magnetohydrostatic configuration and their maximum stable line-mass as a function of the magnetic flux per unit mass. Stability of such filament is studied with magnetohydrodynamical simulations. There exists the shortest wavelength above which the filament undergoes the gravitational instability (critical wavelength). The most unstable mode has a wavelength twice as long as the critical wavelength. The filament fragments with the most unstable wavelength and experiences runaway collapse as long as the gas is isothermal and forms a pseudo-disk which extends in the direction perpendicular to the magnetic field.
