Growth of Massive Molecular Cloud Filament by Accretion Flows. II. New Mechanism to Support a Supercritical Filament against Radial Collapse
Daisei Abe, Tsuyoshi Inoue, Shu-ichiro Inutsuka +1
Observations indicate that dense molecular filamentary clouds are sites of star formation. The filament width determines the most unstable scale for self-gravitational fragmentatio…

Structure and Fragmentation Scale of a Massive Star-Forming Filament in NGC6334: High-Resolution Mid-Infrared Absorption Imaging with JWST
Philippe André, Michael Mattern, Doris Arzoumanian +4
Dense filaments are believed to be representative of the initial conditions of star formation in molecular clouds. We have used the MIRI instrument on JWST to image the massive fil…

Internal 1000 AU-scale Structures of the R CrA Cluster-forming Cloud -- I: Filamentary Structures
Kengo Tachihara, Naofumi Fukaya, Kazuki Tokuda +17
We report on ALMA ACA observations of a high-density region of the Corona Australis cloud forming a young star cluster, and the results of resolving internal structures. In additio…
