The hybrid disks: a search and study to better understand evolution of disks

J. Pericaud, E. Di Folco, A. Dutrey +2

The increased sensitivity of millimeter-wave facilities now makes possible the detection of low amounts of gas in debris disks. Some of the gas-rich debris disks harbor peculiar pr…

The anatomy of the Orion B Giant Molecular Cloud: A local template for studies of nearby galaxies

Jérôme Pety, Viviana V. Guzmán, Jan H. Orkisz +11

We aim to develop the Orion B Giant Molecular Cloud (GMC) as a local template for interpreting extra-galactic molecular line observations. We use the wide-band receiver at the IRAM…

Hot methanol from the inner region of the HH 212 protostellar system

S. Leurini, C. Codella, S. Cabrit +9

The mechanisms leading to the formation of disks around young stellar objects (YSOs) and to the launching of the associated jets are crucial to the understanding of the earliest st…

FIR Spectroscopy of the Galactic Center: Hot and Warm Molecular Gas

J. R. Goicoechea, M. Etxaluze, J. Cernicharo +2

The angular resolution (~10") achieved by the Herschel Space Observatory ~3.5m telescope at FIR wavelengths allowed us to roughly separate the emission toward the inner parsec of t…

First image of the L1157 molecular jet by the CALYPSO IRAM-PdBI survey

L. Podio, C. Codella, F. Gueth +12

Fast jets are thought to be a crucial ingredient of star formation because they might extract angular momentum from the disk and thus allow mass accretion onto the star. However, i…

ALMA Spectroscopic Survey in the Hubble Ultra Deep Field: Survey Description

Fabian Walter, Roberto Decarli, Manuel Aravena +39

We present the rationale for and the observational description of ASPECS: The ALMA SPECtroscopic Survey in the Hubble Ultra-Deep Field (UDF), the cosmological deep field that has t…

ALMA spectroscopic survey in the Hubble Ultra Deep Field: CO luminosity functions and the evolution of the cosmic density of molecular gas

Roberto Decarli, Fabian Walter, Manuel Aravena +37

In this paper we use ASPECS, the ALMA Spectroscopic Survey in the {\em Hubble} Ultra Deep Field (UDF) in band 3 and band 6, to place blind constraints on the CO luminosity function…

BlackHoleCam: fundamental physics of the Galactic center

C. Goddi, H. Falcke, M. Kramer +36

Einstein's General Theory of Relativity (GR) successfully describes gravity. The most fundamental predictions of GR are black holes (BHs), but in spite of many convincing BH candid…

Detection of CO and HCN in Pluto's atmosphere with ALMA

E. Lellouch, M. Gurwell, B. Butler +16

Observations of the Pluto-Charon system, acquired with the ALMA interferometer on June 12-13, 2015, have yielded a detection of the CO(3-2) and HCN(4-3) rotational transitions from…

Probing the CO and methanol snow lines in young protostars. Results from the CALYPSO IRAM-PdBI survey

S. Anderl, S. Maret, S. Cabrit +9

Context. "Snow lines", marking regions where abundant volatiles freeze out onto the surface of dust grains, play an important role for planet growth and bulk composition in protopl…

Chemistry in Disks X: The Molecular Content of Proto-planetary Disks in Taurus

S. Guilloteau, L. Reboussin, A. Dutrey +6

(abridged) We used the IRAM 30-m to perform a sensitive wideband survey of 30 protoplanetary disks in the Taurus Auriga region. We simultaneously observed HCO(3-2), HCN(3-2), C…

Isotopic ratios of H, C, N, O, and S in comets C/2012 F6 (Lemmon) and C/2014 Q2 (Lovejoy)

N. Biver, R. Moreno, D. Bockelée-Morvan +15

The apparition of bright comets C/2012 F6 (Lemmon) and C/2014 Q2 (Lovejoy) in March-April 2013 and January 2015, combined with the improved observational capabilities of submillime…

RadioNet3 Study Group White Paper on: The Future Organisation and Coordination of Radio Astronomy in Europe

M. A. Garrett, P. Charlot, S. T. Garrington +8

The QueSERA Study Group (QSG) have been tasked by the RadioNet Board to produce a White Paper on the future organisation and coordination of radio astronomy in Europe. This White P…
