Star formation from kpc to hundreds of AU scales

Henrik Beuther , MPI for Astronomy (Heidelberg)

Star formation is a hierarchical process where fragmentation and gas dynamical processes start on the largest galactic scales and continue down to the formation and accretion processes around the protostars. Starting with bar-spiral arm interfaces, then going step-wise to smaller scales of molecular clouds, star-forming regions, cores and potential (massive)accretion disks, I will present recent observational results related to the dynamical processes during cloud and star formation.
