Initial conditions for massive star formation
Friedrich Wyrowski
Max-Planck-Institut fu?r Radioastronomie, Bonn, Germany
Abstract. In this contribution, our knowledge of the initial conditions under
which massive star formation takes place is reviewed. Massive stars are born
in massive clumps of giant molecular clouds (GMCs), hence first the properties
of GMCs are summarized. As a potentially early stage of molecular clouds,
infrared dark clouds have been discovered a decade ago as dark patches in mid-
infrared (MIR) images of the Galactic plane and many studies of the physical
conditions within them have been conducted recently. Without the guidance of
MIR absorption, large scale, unbiased cold dust surveys can be used as well to
identify massive cold clumps. In the absence of indicators of ongoing massive
star formation, like compact HII regions and bright IR sources, these clumps are
the most promising objects for the study of the initial conditions of massive star
formation. Current observational approaches to find IR quiet clumps and their
physical and chemical properties are summarized.
1. Introduction
In the last decade, much progress has been made towards understanding of the
earliest phases of massive star formation. While in the nineties most studies of
early stages targeted hot objects, namely compact HII regions and hot molecular
cores (e.g. Kurtz et al. 2000; Churchwell 2002), we learned only in indirect ways,
for example through chemical properties, about their initial conditions. Time
was ripe then for advances in the field of also colder stages with the advent of
new IR mission, mm/submm bolometer arrays and clever molecular line observ-
ing strategies. Previously, the initial conditions of massive star formation were
covered in depths in the reviews by Evans et al. (2002),
