Accurate proper motions of the protostellar system VLA1623-2417
Ricardo Hernández Garnica, Laurent Loinard, Carlos Carrasco-González +9
The paper presents a detailed astrometric study of the quadruple protostellar system VLA1623‑2417, deriving accurate absolute proper motions for its components using over three dec…
How Should We Understand the Core Mass Function? A memo of the CMF2IMF conference at ESO Garching
Fengwei Xu, Roberto Galvan-Madrid, Kaho Morii +4
The paper reviews efforts to link the core mass function (CMF) to the stellar initial mass function (IMF), compiles observational core catalogs into a common framework via the publ…
The efficiency per free-fall time as a ratio of the Star Formation Rate to the gas-infall rate in collapsing cores: dependence on the core definition, accretion, and radial structure
Fabián Quesada-Zúñiga, Manuel Zamora-Avilés, Enrique Vázquez-Semadeni +3
A parameter used to characterise star formation activity in MCs is the efficiency per free-fall time, , although commonly referred to as an efficiency, it is formally…
The ALMA-QUARKS survey: Investigating Thermal Feedback of Massive Protostars in Hot Molecular Cores
Dezhao Meng, Tie Liu, Jarken Esimbek +33
We identify a sample of 83 spatially resolved hot molecular cores (HMCs) in the QUARKS survey, aiming at investigating thermal feedback from massive stars. Using CHCN\,(12--11)…
Estimating the Luminosities of Protostars with Limited Infrared Photometry
Michael M. Dunham, Aina Palau, Nuria Huélamo +3
The luminosities of protostars provide one of the only indirect methods of measuring their masses and mass accretion rates in their earliest stages of evolution. Accurate measureme…
Comparing the Relation inside a Giant Molecular Cloud
Carlos G. Román-Zúñiga, Aina Palau, Javier Ballesteros-Paredes +3
In this paper we present a simple analysis around scaling relations derived from the Schmidt conjecture for star-forming molecular clouds, at the intra-cloud scale. Using a hierarc…
