<h2>THE MILKY WAY AS A STAR FORMATION ENGINE</h2>

<p>We review and discuss the latest observational scenario globally emerging from
the latest generation of continuum and spectroscopic global-scale surveys of
the mid-plane of the Galaxy from infrared to radio wavelengths, in terms of
cloud formation and evolution, star and clump formation rate and efficiency
throughout the Galaxy, evidence for density thresholds for the formation of
protocluster-forming clumps, as well as the role of large-scale filamentary
structures in channeling diffuse ISM into gravitationally bound clumps. The new
view of the Milky Way thus assembled will be discussed in the context of
competing theoretical frameworks distinguishing between &quot;slow&quot; and &quot;fast&quot;
formation, outlining some of the challenges that this body of evidence poses to
a variety of theoretical scenarios for large-scale star formation. We will
review the most recent methods and evolutionary indicators used to classify the
star formation activity in molecular clumps, comparing the different possible
derivations of the local SFR and discussing its variation as a function of
Galactocentric radius. The order-of-magnitude increase in the number of sources
(mostly clumps) that are revealed in state-of-the-art infrared and
submillimeter Galaxy-wide surveys make such studies possible with an
unprecedented statistical significance. We will also review the present status
of our understanding of the Galaxy as a global star formation engine in the
context of similar studies in extragalactic systems, evaluating how the data on
our own Galaxy compare with the proposed global star formation laws that relate
properties of the interstellar medium to the star formation rate.</p>

<h2>Questions</h2>
<blockquote>
<ul class="simple">
<li>Q: Mordecai - seen fragmentation starvation in massive star formation as well</li>
<li>A: Yep.  Also, Phil knows disk around black hole is like a disk around a protostar</li>
<li>Q: Philippe - Threshold issue.  No threshold in Hi-Gal data.</li>
<li>A: missed it, someone walked in front of me</li>
<li>A: Molinari - Different physics, different scales?</li>
<li>Q: Sergei - Fermi bubble feature.  Attributed to star formation.  In other
galaxies... we've seen one other analog?  More than enough energy in a Sgr
A* outburst.</li>
<li>A: Should ask how we distinguish AGN-driven vs. star-formation-driven flows.
AGN should be low-mass, light, relativistic launch.  Star formation blows
out big HI bubbles (high-mass).</li>
<li>Same guy: Cosmologists say AGN can blow up whole galaxies</li>
<li>Q Hans: Sequential star formation, triggered SF... are we more informed
about triggering now than before?</li>
<li>A: Triggering is a great model, but observationally indistinguishable.  Only
way to know is precision kinematics.  Need GAIA.
It happens, but can't be proved.</li>
