Effect of magnetic field on the rotating filamentary molecular clouds [GA]

http://arxiv.org/abs/1702.03529


Purpose of this work is study evolution of magnetized rotating filamentary molecular cloud’s. We will consider cylindrical symmetric filamentary molecular clouds at the early stage of evolution. For the first time we consider rotation of filamentary molecular in presence of an axial and azimuthal magnetic field without any assumption of density and magnetic functions. We show that in addition to decreasing of radial collapse velocity, the rotational velocity also affected by magnetic field. Existence of rotation yields to fragment of filament. Moreover, we show that the magnetic field have significant effect on the fragmentation of filamentary molecular clouds.
