A search for pre- and proto-brown dwarfs in the dark cloud Barnard 30 with ALMA
N. Huélamo, I. de Gregorio-Monsalvo, A. Palau +8
In this work we present ALMA continuum observations at 880 m of 30 sub-mm cores previously identified with APEX/LABOCA at 870m in the Barnard 30 cloud. The main goal is to ch…
Nitrogen oxide in protostellar envelopes and shocks: the ASAI survey
C. Codella, S. Viti, B. Lefloch +8
The high-sensitivity of the IRAM 30-m ASAI unbiased spectral survey in the mm-window allows us to detect NO emission towards both the Class I object SVS13-A and the protostellar ou…
Cosmic Dust IX
Hiroshi Kimura, Ludmilla Kolokolova, Aigen Li +3
This is an editorial to the special issue on Cosmic Dust IX.
First measurement of the 14N/15N ratio in the analogue of the Sun progenitor OMC-2 FIR4
Claudine Kahane, Ali Jaber Al-Edhari, Cecilia Ceccarelli +3
We present a complete census of the 14N/15N isotopic ratio in the most abundant N-bearing molecules towards the cold envelope of the protocluster OMC-2 FIR4, the best known Sun pro…
Laboratory measurements and astronomical search for cyanomethanimine
Mattia Melosso, Alessio Melli, Cristina Puzzarini +9
C-cyanomethanimine (HNCHCN), existing in the two and isomeric forms, is a key prebiotic molecule, but, so far, only the isomer has been detected toward the massive star…
Far-infrared observations of a massive cluster forming in the Monoceros R2 filament hub
T. S. M. Rayner, M. J. Griffin, N. Schneider +29
We present far-infrared observations of Monoceros R2 (a giant molecular cloud at approximately 830 pc distance, containing several sites of active star formation), as observed at 7…
High spectral resolution observations of HNC3 and HCCNC in the L1544 prestellar core
C. Vastel, K. Kawaguchi, D. Quénard +4
HCCNC and HNC3 are less commonly found isomers of cyanoacetylene, HC3N, a molecule that is widely found in diverse astronomical sources. We want to know if HNC3 is present in sourc…
The Seven Sisters DANCe III: Projected spatial distribution
J. Olivares, E. Moraux, L. M. Sarro +6
Methods. We compute Bayesian evidences and Bayes Factors for a set of variations of the classical radial models by King (1962), Elson et al. (1987) and Lauer et al. (1995). The var…
Phylogenetic Analyses of Quasars and Galaxies
Didier Fraix-Burnet, Mauro D'Onofrio, Paola Marziani
Phylogenetic approaches have proven to be useful in astrophysics. We have recently published a Maximum Parsimony (or cladistics) analysis on two samples of 215 and 85 low-z quasars…
The onset of energetic particle irradiation in Class 0 protostars
C. Favre, A. Lopez-Sepulcre, C. Ceccarelli +11
The early stages of low-mass star formation are likely to be subject to intense ionization by protostellar energetic MeV particles. As a result, the surrounding gas is enriched in…
The L1157-B1 astrochemical laboratory: testing the origin of DCN
G. Busquet, F. Fontani, S. Viti +4
L1157-B1 is the brightest shocked region of the large-scale molecular outflow, considered the prototype of chemically rich outflows, being the ideal laboratory to study how shocks…
Complex organics in IRAS 4A revisited with ALMA and PdBI: Striking contrast between two neighbouring protostellar cores
A. López-Sepulcre, N. Sakai, R. Neri +13
We used the Atacama Large (sub-)Millimeter Array (ALMA) and the IRAM Plateau de Bure Interferometer (PdBI) to image, with an angular resolution of 0.5 (120 au) and 1 (235 a…
CALYPSO view of SVS 13A with PdBI: Multiple jet sources
Charlène Lefèvre, Sylvie Cabrit, Anaëlle J. Maury +9
Aims. We wish to clarify the origin of the multiple jet features emanating from the binary protostar SVS 13A (= VLA4A/VLA4B). Methods. We used the Plateau de Bure Interferometer to…
SOLIS II. Carbon-chain growth in the Solar-type protocluster OMC2-FIR4
F. Fontani, C. Ceccarelli, C. Favre +42
The interstellar delivery of carbon atoms locked into molecules might be one of the key ingredients for the emergence of life. Cyanopolyynes are carbon chains delimited at their tw…
Search for grain growth towards the center of L1544
A. Chacón-Tanarro, P. Caselli, L. Bizzocchi +4
In dense and cold molecular clouds dust grains are surrounded by thick icy mantles. It is however not clear if dust growth and coagulation take place before the switch-on of a prot…
Direct evidence of multiple reservoirs of volatile nitrogen in a protosolar nebula analogue
Pierre Hily-Blant, Victor Magalhães, Joel Kastner +3
Isotopic ratios are keys to understanding the origin and early evolution of the solar system in the context of Galactic nucleosynthesis. The large range of measured N/$^{15}…
Probing changes of dust properties along a chain of solar-type prestellar and protostellar cores in Taurus with NIKA
A. Bracco, P. Palmeirim, Ph. André +45
The characterization of dust properties in the interstellar medium (ISM) is key for star formation. Mass estimates are crucial to determine gravitational collapse conditions for th…
NH_3(1_0-0_0) in the pre-stellar core L1544
P. Caselli, L. Bizzocchi, E. Keto +11
Pre-stellar cores represent the initial conditions in the process of star and planet formation, therefore it is important to study their physical and chemical structure. Because of…
Chemical complexity induced by efficient ice evaporation in the Barnard 5 molecular cloud
Vianney Taquet, Eva Wirström, Steven B. Charnley +3
Cold gas-phase water has recently been detected in a cold dark cloud, Barnard 5 located in the Perseus complex, by targeting methanol peaks as signposts for ice mantle evaporation.…
