Disk Formation in Magnetized Dense Cores with Turbulence and Ambipolar Diffusion
Ka Ho Lam, Zhi-Yun Li, Che-Yu Chen +2
Disks are essential to the formation of both stars and planets, but how they form in magnetized molecular cloud cores remains debated. This work focuses on how the disk formation i…
The specific angular momentum radial profile in dense cores: improved initial conditions for disk formation
Jaime E. Pineda, Bo Zhao, Anika Schmiedeke +5
The determination of the specific angular momentum radial profile, , in the early stages of star formation is crucial to constrain star and circumstellar disk formation theor…
The central 1000 AU of a pre-stellar core revealed with ALMA. I. 1.3 mm continuum observations
Paola Caselli, Jaime E. Pineda, Bo Zhao +8
Stars like our Sun form in self-gravitating dense and cold structures within interstellar clouds, called pre-stellar cores. Although much is known about the physical structure of d…
JCMT POL-2 and ALMA polarimetric observations of 6000-100 au scales in the protostar B335: linking magnetic field and gas kinematics in observations and MHD simulations
Hsi-Wei Yen, Bo Zhao, I-Ta Hsieh +8
We present our analysis of the magnetic field structures from 6000 au to 100 au scales in the Class 0 protostar B335 inferred from our JCMT POL-2 observations and the ALMA archival…
