[Abridged] We have recently reported on the collapse and fragmentation properties of the northernmost part of this structure, located ~2.4pc north of Orion KL -- the Orion Molecula…
Constraints on the circumstellar dust around KIC 8462852
M. A. Thompson, P. Scicluna, F. Kemper +9
We present millimetre (SMA) and sub-millimetre (SCUBA-2) continuum observations of the peculiar star KIC 8462852 which displayed several deep and aperiodic dips in brightness durin…
The Inner Debris Structure in the Fomalhaut Planetary System
Kate Y. L. Su, George H. Rieke, Denis Defrere +5
Fomalhaut plays an important role in the study of debris disks and small bodies in other planetary systems. The proximity and luminosity of the star make key features of its debris…
Submillimeter-HCN Diagram for an Energy Diagnostics in the Centers of Galaxies
Takuma Izumi, Kotaro Kohno, Susanne Aalto +16
Compiling data from literature and the ALMA archive, we show enhanced HCN(4-3)/HCO(4-3) and/or HCN(4-3)/CS(7-6) integrated intensity ratios in circumnuclear molecular gas aroun…
A Two-Temperature Model of Magnetized Protostellar Outflows
Liang-Yao Wang, Hsien Shang, Ruben Krasnopolsky +1
We explore kinematics and morphologies of molecular outflows driven by young protostars using magnetohydrodynamic simulations in the context of the unified wind model of Shang et a…
Resolved Magnetic-Field Structure and Variability Near the Event Horizon of Sagittarius A*
Michael D. Johnson, Vincent L. Fish, Sheperd S. Doeleman +45
Near a black hole, differential rotation of a magnetized accretion disk is thought to produce an instability that amplifies weak magnetic fields, driving accretion and outflow. The…
X-ray emission from the Wolf-Rayet bubble NGC 6888. II. XMM-Newton EPIC observations
J. A. Toalá, M. A. Guerrero, Y. -H. Chu +3
We present deep XMM-Newton EPIC observations of the Wolf-Rayet (WR) bubble NGC6888 around the star WR136. The complete X-ray mapping of the nebula confirms the distribution of the…
Dense magnetized plasma associated with a fast radio burst
Kiyoshi Masui, Hsiu-Hsien Lin, Jonathan Sievers +15
Fast Radio Bursts are bright, unresolved, non-repeating, broadband, millisecond flashes, found primarily at high Galactic latitudes, with dispersion measures much larger than expec…
Protostar L1455 IRS1: Rotating Disk Connecting to Filamentary Network
Hsuan-Gu Chou, Hsi-Wei Yen, Patrick M. Koch +1
We conducted IRAM-30m C18O (2-1) and SMA 1.3mm continuum, 12CO (2-1), and C18O (2-1) observations toward the Class 0/I protostar L1455 IRS1 in Perseus. The IRAM results show L1455…
