Unveiling a network of parallel filaments in the Infrared Dark Cloud G14.225-0.506
Gemma Busquet, Qizhou Zhang, Aina Palau +10
We present the results of combined NH3(1,1) and (2,2) line emission observed with the Very Large Array and the Effelsberg 100m telescope of the Infrared Dark Cloud G14.225-0.506. T…
Stellar dust production and composition in the Magellanic Clouds
F. Kemper
The dust reservoir in the interstellar medium of a galaxy is constantly being replenished by dust formed in the stellar winds of evolved stars. Due to their vicinity, nearby irregu…
Effects of H2 coating of grains on depletion of molecular species
Oscar Morata, Tatsuhiko I. Hasegawa
Physical conditions in dense and cold regions of interstellar clouds favour the formation of ice mantles on the surfaces of interstellar grains. It is predicted that most of the ga…
Dust continuum and Polarization from Envelope to Cores in Star Formation: A Case Study in the W51 North region
Ya-Wen Tang, Paul T. P. Ho, Patrick M. Koch +2
We present the first high-angular resolution (up to 0.7", ~5000 AU) polarization and thermal dust continuum images toward the massive star-forming region W51 North. The observation…
Hierarchical Fragmentation of the Orion Molecular Filaments
Satoko Takahashi, Paul T. P. Ho, Paula S. Teixeira +2
We present a high angular resolution map of 850 um continuum emission of the Orion Molecular Cloud-3 (OMC 3) obtained with the Submillimeter Array (SMA); the map is a mosaic of 85…
Chemistry in Disks VIII: the CS molecule as an analytic tracer of turbulence in disks
S. Guilloteau, A. Dutrey, V. Wakelam +5
Turbulence is thought to be a key driver of the evolution of protoplanetary disks, regulating the mass accretion process, the transport of angular momentum, and the growth of dust…
The Dependence of Quenching upon the Inner Structure of Galaxies at 0.5<z< 0.8 in the DEEP2/AEGIS Survey
Edmond Cheung, S. M. Faber, David C. Koo +25
The shutdown of star formation in galaxies is generally termed `quenching'. Although quenching may occur through a variety of processes, the exact mechanism(s) that is in fact resp…
Early stages of cluster formation: fragmentation of massive dense cores down to ~1000 AU
Aina Palau, Asunción Fuente, Josep M. Girart +11
In order to study the fragmentation of massive dense cores, which constitute the cluster cradles, we observed with the PdBI in the most extended configuration the continuum at 1.3…
Kiloparsec-scale Radio Structures in Narrow-line Seyfert 1 Galaxies
Akihiro Doi, Hiroshi Nagira, Nozomu Kawakatu +3
We report the finding of kiloparsec (kpc)-scale radio structures in three radio-loud narrow-line Seyfert 1 (NLS1) galaxies from the Faint Images of the Radio Sky at Twenty-centimet…
The circumstellar disk of AB Aurigae: evidence for envelope accretion at late stages of star formation?
Ya-Wen Tang, Stephane Guilloteau, Vincent Pietu +3
The circumstellar disk of AB Aurigae has garnered strong attention owing to the apparent existence of spirals at a relatively young stage and also the asymmetric disk traced in the…
Disentangling the circumnuclear environs of Centaurus A: Gaseous Spiral Arms in a Giant Elliptical Galaxy
D. Espada, S. Matsushita, A. B. Peck +3
We report the existence of spiral arms in the recently formed gaseous and dusty disk of the closest giant elliptical, NGC 5128 (Centaurus A), using high resolution 12CO(2-1) observ…
Milky Way Supermassive Black Hole: Dynamical Feeding from the Circumnuclear Environment
Hauyu Baobab Liu, Pei-Ying Hsieh, Paul T. P. Ho +4
The supermassive black hole (SMBH), Sgr A*, at the Galactic Center is surrounded by a molecular circumnuclear disk (CND) lying between 1.5-4 pc radii. The irregular and clumpy stru…
Young starless cores embedded in the magnetically dominated Pipe Nebula. II. Extended dataset
P. Frau, J. M. Girart, M. T. Beltran +8
The Pipe nebula is a massive, nearby, filamentary dark molecular cloud with a low star-formation efficiency threaded by a uniform magnetic field perpendicular to its main axis. It…
Feathering Instability of Spiral Arms. I: Formulation of the Problem
Wing-Kit Lee, Frank H. Shu
In this paper we study the feathering substructures along spiral arms by considering the perturbational gas response to a spiral shock. Feathers are density fluctuations that jut o…
The chemistry of extragalactic carbon stars
Paul M. Woods, Catherine Walsh, Martin A. Cordiner +1
Prompted by the ongoing interest in Spitzer Infrared Spectrometer spectra of carbon stars in the Large Magellanic Cloud, we have investigated the circumstellar chemistry of carbon…
A Multi-Wavelength High Resolution Study of the S255 Star Forming Region. General structure and kinematics
I. Zinchenko, S. -Y. Liu, Y. -N. Su +4
We present observational data for two main components (S255IR and S255N) of the S255 high mass star forming region in continuum and molecular lines obtained at 1.3 mm and 1.1 mm wi…
Winds of change - a molecular outflow in NGC 1377? The anatomy of an extreme FIR-excess galaxy
S. Aalto, S. Muller, K. Sakamoto +3
We use high (0."65 x 0."52,(65x52pc)) resolution SubMillimeter Array (SMA) observations to image the CO and 13CO 2-1 line emission of the extreme FIR-excess galaxy NGC 1377. We fin…
