Magnetic Fields in the Central Molecular Zone Influenced by Feedback and Weakly Correlated with Star Formation

Xing Lu, Junhao Liu, Thushara Pillai +12

Magnetic fields of molecular clouds in the Central Molecular Zone (CMZ) have been relatively underobserved at sub-parsec resolution. Here we report JCMT/POL2 observations of polari…

The first Ka-band (26.1-35 GHz) blind line survey towards Orion KL

Xunchuan Liu, Tie Liu, Zhiqiang Shen +30

We conducted a Ka-band (26.1--35 GHz) line survey towards Orion KL using the TianMa 65-m Radio Telescope (TMRT). It is the first blind line survey in the Ka band, and achieves a se…

ALMA Survey of Orion Planck Galactic Cold Clumps (ALMASOP): The Warm-Envelope Origin of Hot Corinos

Shih-Ying Hsu, Sheng-Yuan Liu, Doug Johnstone +24

Hot corinos are of great interest due to their richness in interstellar complex organic molecules (COMs) and the consequent potential prebiotic connection to solar-like planetary s…

Episodic Accretion in Protostars -- An ALMA Survey of Molecular Jets in the Orion Molecular Cloud

Somnath Dutta, Chin-Fei Lee, Doug Johnstone +20

Protostellar outflows and jets are almost ubiquitous characteristics during the mass accretion phase, and encode the history of stellar accretion, complex-organic molecule (COM) fo…

ALMA Survey of Orion Planck Galactic Cold Clumps (ALMASOP): A forming quadruple system with continuum `ribbons' and intricate outflows

Qiu-yi Luo, Tie Liu, Aaron T. Lee +31

One of the most poorly understood aspects of low-mass star formation is how multiple-star systems are formed. Here we present the results of Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter…

The parallax and 3D kinematics of water masers in the massive star-forming region G034.43+0.24

Xiaofeng Mai, Bo Zhang, M. J. Reid +12

We report a trigonometric parallax measurement of 22 GHz water masers in the massive star-forming region G034.43+0.24 as part of the Bar and Spiral Structure Legacy (BeSSeL) Survey…

Density Structure of Centrally Concentrated Prestellar Cores from Multi-scale Observations

Dipen Sahu, Sheng-Yuan Liu, Doug Johnstone +23

Starless cores represent the initial stage of evolution toward (proto)star formation, and a subset of them, known as prestellar cores, with high density (~ 10^6 cm^-3 or higher) an…

Evidence of high-mass star formation through multi-scale mass accretion in hub-filament-system clouds

Hong-Li Liu, Anandmayee Tej, Tie Liu +30

We present a statistical study of a sample of 17 hub-filament-system (HFS) clouds of high-mass star formation using high-angular resolution (1-2 arcsecond) ALMA 1.3mm and 3mm…

ATOMS: ALMA Three-millimeter Observations of Massive Star-forming regions -- XV. Steady Accretion from Global Collapse to Core Feeding in Massive Hub-filament System SDC335

Feng-Wei Xu, Ke Wang, Tie Liu +37

We present ALMA Band-3/7 observations towards "the Heart" of a massive hub-filament system (HFS) SDC335, to investigate its fragmentation and accretion. At a resolution of $\sim0.0…
