Seeding the galactic centre gas stream: gravitational instabilities set the initial conditions for the formation of protocluster clouds

Star formation within the Central Molecular Zone (CMZ) may be intimately linked to the orbital dynamics of the gas. Recent models suggest that star formation within the dust ridge molecular clouds (from G0.253+0.016 to Sgr B2) follows an evolutionary time sequence, triggered by tidal compression dur...
