The Nature of Low-Density Star Formation
·
Abstract
How do stars manage to form within low-density, HI-dominated gas? Here we outline fundamental questions about the nature of star formation at low-density. We describe the wide-field, high-resolution imaging of stars, star clusters, and gas clouds in nearby galaxies needed to provide definitive answers and build a complete theory of star formation.
