Stellar feedback in molecular clouds and galactic discs

Feedback from massive stars in the form of stellar winds, ionizing radiation, and Supernova explosions shapes the structure and dynamics of the multi-phase interstellar medium. Here, I will briefly summarise some of our recent studies and findings on these subjects. I will discuss the effects of ion...

Summary:Feedback from massive stars in the form of stellar winds, ionizing radiation, and Supernova explosions shapes the structure and dynamics of the multi-phase interstellar medium. Here, I will briefly summarise some of our recent studies and findings on these subjects. I will discuss the effects of ionizing radiation and stellar winds in individual molecular clouds. Furthermore, I will shortly introduce the SILCC project, in which we model the evolution of the Supernova- and wind-driven, multi-phase ISM in stratified galactic discs.
