The SOFIA Massive (SOMA) Star Formation Q-band Follow-up. II. Hydrogen Recombination Lines Toward High-Mass Protostars

Prasanta Gorai, Kotomi Taniguchi, Jonathan C. Tan +11

Hydrogen recombination lines (HRLs) are valuable diagnostics of the physical conditions in ionized regions around high-mass stars. Understanding their broadening mechanisms and int…

The High-resolution Accretion Disks of Embedded protoStars (HADES) simulations. I. Impact of Protostellar Magnetic Fields on the Accretion Modes

Brandt A. L. Gaches, Jonathan C. Tan, Anna L. Rosen +1

How embedded, actively accreting low-mass protostars accrete their mass is still greatly debated. Observations are now piecing together the puzzle of embedded protostellar accretio…

Aluminum-26 Enrichment in the Surface of Protostellar Disks Due to Protostellar Cosmic Rays

Brandt A. L. Gaches, Stefanie Walch, Stella S. R. Walch +1

The radioactive decay of aluminum-26 (Al) is an important heating source in early planet formation. Since its discovery, there have been several mechanisms proposed to intro…

Impact of Cosmic-Ray Feedback on Accretion and Chemistry in Circumstellar Disks

S. S. R. Offner, B. A. L. Gaches, J. Holdship

We use the gas-grain chemistry code UCLCHEM to explore the impact of cosmic-ray feedback on the chemistry of circumstellar disks. We model the attenuation and energy losses of the…

Astrochemical Correlations in Molecular Clouds

Brandt A. L. Gaches, Stella S. R. Offner, Erik W. Rosolowsky +1

We investigate the spectral correlations between different species used to observe molecular clouds. We use hydrodynamic simulations and a full chemical network to study the abunda…
