Several projects will be undertaken looking at star formation in dwarf galaxies, developing the models of resolved star formation on galactic scales based on St Andrews-developed smoothed-particle hydrodynamics code. This will involve modelling a full galactic potential, the formation of molecular clouds and the onset of gravitational collapse and star formation, including radiative and kinematic feedback from ionisation and supernovae, with the aim of increasing understanding of the effect of this feedback on molecular cloud lifetimes and star formation efficiencies.

将开展几个项目来研究矮星系中的恒星形成，并根据圣安德鲁斯开发的平滑粒子流体动力学代码开发银河尺度上已解决的恒星形成模型。这将涉及对整个银河系潜力、分子云的形成以及引力塌缩和恒星形成的开始进行建模，包括电离和超新星的辐射和运动反馈，目的是加深对这种反馈对分子云寿命影响的理解和恒星形成效率。
