An ALMA study of hub-filament systems II.Quiescent filaments converging towards highly dynamic hubs

Michael Anderson, Nicolas Peretto, Sarah E. Ragan +7

Hub-filament systems are networks of converging interstellar filaments, often with active star formation at their centres, that may play an important role in high-mass star formati…

Evidence of a Cloud-Cloud Collision from Overshooting Gas in the Galactic Center

Savannah R. Gramze, Adam Ginsburg, David S. Meier +4

The Milky Way is a barred spiral galaxy with "bar lanes" that bring gas towards the Galactic Center. Gas flowing along these bar lanes often overshoots, and instead of accreting on…

Alignment of dense molecular core morphology and velocity gradients with ambient magnetic fields

A. Pandhi, R. K. Friesen, L. Fissel +15

Studies of dense core morphologies and their orientations with respect to gas flows and the local magnetic field have been limited to only a small sample of cores with spectroscopi…

3D Radiative Transfer Modelling and Virial Analysis of Starless Cores in the B10 Region of the Taurus Molecular Cloud

Samantha Scibelli, Yancy Shirley, Anika Schmiedeke +4

Low-mass stars like our Sun begin their evolution within cold (10 K) and dense ( cm) cores of gas and dust. The physical structure of starless cores is best probe…

Velocity-Coherent Substructure in TMC-1: Inflow and Fragmentation

Simon E. T. Smith, Rachel Friesen, Antoine Marchal +11

Filamentary structures have been found nearly ubiquitously in molecular clouds and yet their formation and evolution is still poorly understood. We examine a segment of Taurus Mole…

A Survey of Deuterated Ammonia in the Cepheus Star-Forming Region L1251

Maria Galloway-Sprietsma, Yancy L. Shirley, James Di Francesco +4

Understanding the chemical processes during starless core and prestellar core evolution is an important step in understanding the initial stages of star and disk formation. This pr…
