Early-forming Massive Stars Suppress Star Formation and Hierarchical Cluster Assembly

Feedback from massive stars plays an important role in the formation of star clusters. Whether a very massive star is born early or late in the cluster formation timeline has profound implications for the star cluster formation and assembly processes. We carry out a controlled experiment to characte...
