How to form a filament ? Compression of two of the axis: shock or gravity Extension of one of the axis: Shear (the very heart of turbulence)
Dense cores are density fluctuations induced by turbulence (and not by gravity) 3D density field velocity field (norm) A turbulent molecular cloud (Mach 10). Includes the magnetic field (supercritical) but not gravity. Proposition: filaments are intersection of shocked sheets Padoan et al. 01
Comparison between hydro and MHD simulations Decaying turbulence, 2 phase-medium, no gravity, 5 cm-3 Initial Mach (wrt cold gas) : 10, B=0 or 5 mG HYDRO MHD
Aspect ratio of clumps denser than 200 cm-3 HYDRO MHD shortest/longest shortest/longest MHD simulations are more filamentary while magnetic field should reduce the strength of the shocks… intermediate/longest intermediate/longest
Impact of an initial shear No turbulence initially HYDRO MHD
Impact of an initial shear Mach 5 turbulence initially MHD HYDRO MHD case is more filamentary because magnetic field gives more coherence to the flow. It connects fluid particles and keep a memory.

Fragmentation of sheet into filaments Classical Jeans analysis: The largest mode (k=0) has the fastest growth rate. Could be a problem for forming filaments by gravity but things are different for a self-gravitating sheet. Linear stability of the self-gravitating sheet (Spitzer 78, Nagai et al. 98) idem: but for: more unstable mode = typical width of the filaments : Dispersion relation => Fragmentation of a sheet into filaments

Formation of filament in gravo-turbulent simulations Evolution of the density field of a molecular cloud The calculation (SPH technique) takes gravity into account but not the magnetic field. Turbulence induced the formation of filaments, which become self-gravitating and collapse Klessen & Burkert 01
