Characterizing the interplay between Galactic star formation and ionization feedback with PRIMA

Annie Zavagno, Delphine Russeil, Paolo Suin +13

Recent results from the James Webb Space Telescope show that nearby spiral galaxies are dominated by the presence of H I and H II bubbles that strongly shape their surrounding medi…

Influence of star-forming galaxy selection on the galaxy main sequence

W. J. Pearson, F. Pistis, M. Figueira +4

This work aims to determine how the galaxy main sequence (MS) changes using seven different commonly used methods to select the star-forming galaxies within VIPERS data over $0.5 \…

The slippery slope of dust attenuation curves: Correlation of dust attenuation laws with star-to-dust compactness up to z = 4

M. Hamed, K. Małek, V. Buat +5

Aims. We investigate dust attenuation of 122 heavily dust-obscured galaxies detected with the Atacama Large Millimeter Array (ALMA) and Herschel in the COSMOS field. We search for…

Far-infrared line emission from the outer Galaxy cluster Gy 3-7 with SOFIA/FIFI-LS: Physical conditions and UV fields

N. Le, A. Karska, M. Figueira +13

(abridged) Far-infrared (FIR) line emission provides key information about the gas cooling and heating due to shocks and UV radiation associated with the early stages of star forma…

SFR estimations from z=0 to z=0.9 -- A comparison of SFR calibrators for star-forming galaxies

M. Figueira, A. Pollo, K. Małek +7

Using VIPERS, we estimated a set of SFR based on photometric and spectroscopic data. We used, as estimators, photometric bands from ultraviolet to mid-infrared, and spectral lines.…

The fundamental metallicity relation from SDSS (z~0) to VIPERS (z~0.7) Data selection or evolution

F. Pistis, A. Pollo, M. Scodeggio +6

Aims. We focus on how to homogenize the comparison between galaxy samples having different characteristics. We check the projections of the fundamental metallicity relation (FMR) a…

Signatures of UV radiation in low-mass protostars I. Origin of HCN and CN emission in the Serpens Main region

A. Mirocha, A. Karska, M. Gronowski +6

Context: Ultraviolet radiation (UV) influences the physics and chemistry of star-forming regions, but its properties and significance in the immediate surroundings of low-mass prot…

HII regions and high-mass starless clump candidates II. Fragmentation and induced star formation at ~0.025 pc scale: An ALMA continuum study

S. Zhang, A. Zavagno, A. López-Sepulcre +7

The ionization feedback from HII regions modifies the properties of high-mass starless clumps (HMSCs, of several hundred to a few thousand solar masses with a size of ~0.1-1 pc), s…

APEX CO observations towards the photodissociation region of RCW120

Miguel Figueira, Annie Zavagno, Leonardo Bronfman +3

The edges of ionized (HII) regions are important sites for the formation of (high-mass) stars. Indeed, at least 30% of the galactic high mass star formation is observed there. The…

The role of Galactic HII regions in the formation of filaments. High-resolution submilimeter imaging of RCW 120 with ArTéMiS

A. Zavagno, Ph. André, F. Schuller +13

Massive stars and their associated ionized (HII) regions could play a key role in the formation and evolution of filaments that host star formation. However, the properties of fila…

HII regions and high-mass starless clump candidates I: Catalogs and properties

S. Zhang, A. Zavagno, J. Yuan +6

The role of ionization feedback on high-mass (>8 Msun) star formation (HMSF) is still highly debated. Questions remain concerning the presence of nearby HII regions changes the pro…

Multiwavelength study of the G345.5+1.5 region

M. Figueira, C. López-Calderón, L. Bronfman +4

Star-forming regions are usually studied in the context of Galactic surveys, but dedicated observations are sometimes needed when the study reaches beyond the survey area. Here, we…

ALMA observations of RCW 120 Fragmentation at 0.01pc scale

Miguel Figueira, Leonardo Bronfman, Annie Zavagno +4

Little is known about how high-mass stars form. Around 30\% of the young high-mass stars in the Galaxy are observed at the edges of ionized (HII) regions. Therefore these are place…

The earliest phases of high-mass star formation, as seen in NGC 6334 by \emph{Herschel}

J. Tigé, F. Motte, D. Russeil +33

To constrain models of high-mass star formation, the Herschel/HOBYS KP aims at discovering massive dense cores (MDCs) able to host the high-mass analogs of low-mass prestellar core…

Herschel observations of the Galactic HII region RCW 79

Hong-Li Liu, Miguel Figueira, Annie Zavagno +12

Triggered star formation around HII regions could be an important process. The Galactic HII region RCW 79 is a prototypical object for triggered high-mass star formation. We take a…

Star formation towards the Galactic HII region RCW120

M. Figueira, A. Zavagno, L. Deharveng +16

The expansion of HII regions can trigger the formation of stars. An overdensity of young stellar objects (YSOs) is observed at the edges of HII regions but the mechanisms that give…
