A High-Mass Young Star-forming Core Escaping from Its Parental Filament

Abstract

We studied the unique kinematic properties in massive filament G352.63-1.07 at $10^3$-AU spatial scale with the dense molecular tracers observed with the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA). We find the central massive core M1 (12 $M_{\odot }$) being separated from the surrounding filament with a velocity difference of $v-v_{sys}=-2$ km/s and a transverse separation within 3 arcsec. Meanwhile, as shown in multiple dense-gas tracers, M1 has a spatial extension closely aligned with the main filament and is connected to the filament towards its both ends. M1 thus represents a very beginning state for a massive young star-forming core escaping from the parental filament, within a time scale of $\sim 4000$ years. Based on its kinetic energy ($3.5\times 10^{44}$ erg), the core escape is unlikely solely due to the original filament motion or magnetic field, but requires more energetic events such as a rapid intense anisotropic collapse. The released energy also seems to noticeably increase the environmental turbulence. This may help the filament to become stabilized again.
