Cosmic ray transport in molecular cloud simulations boosts star formation efficiency by up to 43% and yields a top-heavier IMF with a high-mass slope shallower by ~20%.
In 37 massive ETGs, the IMF becomes less bottom-heavy with radius, with average α_IMF falling from 2.16 to 1.74 and IMF gradients dominating M/L variations over stellar population effects.
D-CAF simulations show that ongoing gas collapse during star formation shortens stellar crossing times, rendering gas expulsion more adiabatic and thereby regulating the survival and expansion rates of young stellar systems.
Blue-asymmetric spectral lines appear in 50-60% of dense cores within massive dark clumps, showing that gravitational collapse operates at core scales from prestellar stages onward and supports hierarchical star formation.
Jet feedback in centrally concentrated clouds reduces star formation efficiency to 12-16% and yields cluster structures more consistent with observations than models without jets.
