Abstract

We present a high angular resolution () and wide-field () image of the 1.3-mm continuum, CO( = 2--1) line, and SiO( = 5--4) line emissions toward an embedded protocluster, FIR3, FIR4, and FIR5, in the Orion Molecular Cloud 2 obtained from the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA). We identify 51 continuum sources, 36 of which are newly identified in this study. Their dust masses, projected sizes, and gas number densities are estimated to be --, 290--2000 au, and --, respectively. The results of a Jeans analysis show that of the protostellar sources and of the prestellar sources are gravitationally bound. We identify 12 molecular outflows traced in the CO( = 2--1) emission, six of which are newly detected. We spatially resolve shocked gas structures traced by the SiO( = 5--4) emission in this region for the first time. We identify shocked gas originating from outflows and other shocked regions. These results provide direct evidence of an interaction between a dust condensation, FIR4, and an energetic outflow driven by HOPS-370 located within FIR3. A comparison of the outflow dynamical timescales, fragmentation timescales, and protostellar ages shows that the previously proposed triggered star-formation scenario in FIR4 is not strongly supported. We also discuss the spatial distribution of filaments identified in our continuum image by comparing it with a previously identified hub-fiber system in the line.
