I am a postdoctoral researcher working with Prof. Paulo Padoan on the topic of star formation. We use magnetohydrodynamic simulations calculated in supercomputers to study the role of turbulence, gravity, and magnetic fields in governing the star formation processes. With the help of radiative transfer codes, we create synthetic observations, to which we may then apply similar source detection methods as observers do. Finally, our results are compared to similar real observations to help to interpret the observations, and to identify potential shortcomings due to incomplete information in the real world.
