Chemical complexity in star formation induced by stellar feedback: cores shock-formed by the supernova remnant W44
G. Cosentino, I. Jiménez-Serra, F. Fontani +8
Low-velocity shocks from Supernova Remnants (SNRs) may set the physical and chemical conditions of star formation in molecular clouds. Recent evidence suggests that the Sun might h…
High resolution mapping of molecular tori with ALMA
F. Combes, A. Audibert, S. Garcia-Burillo +11
Recent high resolution mapping of the circum-nuclear regions of Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) has revealed the existence of geometrically thin nuclear disks, in general randomly ori…
CHEMOUT: CHEMical complexity in star-forming regions of the OUTer Galaxy. V. Chemical composition gradients as a function of the galactocentric radius
D. Gigli, F. Fontani, L. Colzi +4
The outer Galaxy is characterized by a lower metallicity than regions near the Sun, suggesting differences in the formation and survival of molecules in star-forming regions. To un…
The GUAPOS project. VI: the chemical inventory of shocked gas
Á. López-Gallifa, V. M. Rivilla, M. T. Beltrán +8
The study of the chemical composition of star-forming regions is key to understanding the chemical ingredients available during the formation of planetary systems. Because the chem…
Low-velocity large-scale shocks in the infrared dark cloud G035.39-00.33: bubble-driven cloud-cloud collisions
G. Cosentino, I. Jiménez-Serra, R. Liu +7
Low-velocity large-scale shocks impacting on the ISM may efficiently shape molecular clouds and trigger star formation within them. These shocks, both driven by galactic bubbles an…
High resolution ALMA observations of HS in LIRGS (Dense gas and shocks in outflows and CNDs)
M. T. Sato, S. Aalto, S. König +14
Molecular gas plays a critical role in regulating star formation and nuclear activity in galaxies. Sulphur bearing molecules, such as H2S, are sensitive to the physical and chemica…
FAUST XXVI. The dust opacity spectral indices of protostellar envelopes bridge the gap between interstellar medium and disks
Luca Cacciapuoti, L. Testi, A. J. Maury +36
The sub-millimetre dust opacity spectral index is a critical observable to constrain dust properties, such as the maximum grain size of an observed dust population. It has been wid…
Investigating the chemical link between HCO and CHOH within the CMZ of NGC 253
K. -Y. Huang, E. Behrens, M. Bouvier +3
Formaldehyde (HCO) and methanol (CHOH) have served as traditional tracers of the star formation process for decades. Studies of the environments which produce these species…
Decoding the molecular torus of NGC 1068: Insights into its structure and kinematics from high-resolution ALMA observations
V. Gámez Rosas, P. van der Werf, J. F. Gallimore +12
We dissect the kinematics and morphology of the molecular gas within the near-nuclear region of NGC 1068 to understand the mechanisms in the central AGN that might be fueling it, a…
Complex Organic Molecules towards the central molecular zone of NGC 253
M. Bouvier, S. Viti, J. G. Mangum +9
Interstellar complex organic molecules (iCOMs) may have a link to prebiotic species, key building blocks for life. In Galactic star-forming (SF) regions, spatial variations of iCOM…
A multi-scale investigation into the diagnostic potential of the HCN/HCO ratio for AGN and starburst activity in nearby galaxies
J. Butterworth, S. Viti, Y. Wang
(Abridged) The identification of AGN and SB regions in galaxies is crucial for understanding the role of various physical processes in galaxy evolution. Molecular line ratios, such…
Shock-induced HCNH+ abundance enhancement in the heart of the starburst galaxy NGC 253 unveiled by ALCHEMI
Y. Gong, C. Henkel, C. T. Bop +15
Understanding the chemistry of molecular clouds is pivotal to elucidate star formation and galaxy evolution. As one of the important molecular ions, HCNH+ plays an important role i…
