azimuthal shear forms robust pressure bumps that act as barriers to radial drift of dust grains, as
demonstrated by post-processing calculations of drift-dominated dust evolution. We discuss how aself-consistent model of anisotropic infall can account for the formation of millimeter rings in the outerdisk as well as producing compact dust disks, consistent with observations of embedded sources.

The formation of stars appears to occur preferentially within
filamentary structures (André et al. 2014; Könyves et al. 2015).
Special attention has been given to one morphological propertyof these structures: their width. In models of idealized hydrostatic cylinders, the radius is related to the stability of the structure (Ostriker 1964). In particular, the radius of the column

filaments show a characteristic width – one that is universal among clouds with drastically di↵erent properties (e.g.,star formation rate, mean column density, Arzoumanian et al.

Abstract We present a large-scale simultaneous survey of the CO isotopologues (12 CO,

to 109.50 and b = 1.85 to 0.95 using the Purple Mountain Observatory 13.7 m
millimeter-wavelength telescope. Except for the molecular gas in the solar neighborhood,the emission from the molecular gas in this region is concentrated in the velocity range of[ 60, 35] km s 1 . The gas in the region can be divided into four clouds, with mass in
the range of ⇠103 to 104 M . We have identified 25 filaments based on the 13 CO data.
The median excitation temperature, length, line mass, line width, and virial parameter ofthe filaments are 10.89 K, 8.49 pc, 146.11 M pc 1 , 1.01 km s 1 , and 3.14, respectively. Among these filaments, eight have virial parameters of less than 2, suggesting thatthey are gravitationally bound and can lead to star formation. Nineteen H II regions or
candidates have previously been found in the region and we investigate the relationships
between these H II regions/candidates and surrounding molecular clouds in detail. Using
morphology similarity and radial velocity consistency between H II regions/candidates
and molecular clouds as evidence for association, and raised temperature and velocity
broadening as signatures of interaction, we propose that 12 H II regions/candidates areassociated with their surrounding molecular clouds. In the case of the H II region of S142,
the energy of the H II region is sufficient to maintain the turbulence in the surrounding
molecular gas.

Star Formation Triggered by the Expanding Bubble S111

Abstract
This paper investigates the impact of radiative and mechanical feedback from O-type stars on their parent
molecular clouds and the triggering of formation of a future generation of stars. We study the infrared bubble S111
created by the embedded massive stellar cluster G316.80–0.05. A signiﬁcant fraction of gas in shells created due tothe compression of the ambient medium by expanding bubbles is photodissociated by the stellar radiation. The
kinematics of the shells are thus best studied using spectroscopic observations of singly ionized carbon, the mostdominant species. We have used velocity-resolved maps of the 2P3/2 → 2P1/2 transition of [C II] at 158 μm, theJ = 2–1 transition of 13CO and C18O, and the J = 1–0 transition of HCO+ to study the rim of the bubble S111 thatpartly coincides with the southern part of the infrared dark ridge G316.75. The [C II] spectra conclusively show
evidence of a shell expanding with a moderate velocity of ∼7 km s−1, which amounts to a kinetic energy that is∼0.5–40 times the thermal energy of the H II region. The pressure causing the expansion of the H II region arises
mainly from hydrogen ionization and dust-processed radiation. Among the far-infrared sources located incompressed shells, we ﬁnd the core G316.7799–0.0942 to show broad spectral features consistent with outﬂow
activity and conclude that it is a site of active star formation. Based on the age of the H II region we conclude that
this expanding H II region is responsible for triggering the current star formation activity in the region.
