Following the Cosmic Trail of Star Formation

David Rebolledo L ara

Our description of h ow molecular clouds transform their gas into stars depends on the physical scales considered in the analysis. On one hand, we have the detailed explor ation of the individual star-forming clouds in the Milky Way.  Most of our understanding of the key physical processes involved in the creation of a m olecular clouds, their subsequent fragmentation into smaller and denser str uctures, and finally the birth of clusters and individual stars has come fr om the detailed analysis of individual Galactic star-forming regions. On th e other hand, studies in nearby galaxies have focused mainly on the integra ted star formation over regions commonly larger than 100 parsecs or, even, over the entire galactic disk. The large-scale integrated quantities descri bing star formation and the feedback processes that it exerts on the surrou nding gas are most relevant to the formation and evolution of galaxies as a whole.  In this talk I will discuss the efforts currently being made to fi nd the connection between the processes that trigger and regulate the star formation at large scales with those playing an important role within indiv idual clouds.  Additionally, I will discuss some of the observational techn iques I use to study the physical properties of the interstellar medium in the Milky Way and nearby galaxies using Australian telescopes.

About  Dr David Rebolledo Lara

I received my Doctorate in Astronomy from t he University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, USA.  I am currently working as a Postdoctoral Research Associate at the University of Sydney and as a Postdoctoral Research Visitor at the University of New South Wales.  My res earch interest has focused primarily on the study of the interstellar mediu m and its relation to the star formation in nearby galaxies and in the Milk y way.  I primarily use radio telescopes to observe the radio emission emit ted by the cold gas and dust in dense molecular clouds, which are the place s where the new stars form.
