L1448 IRS3B: Dust Polarization Aligned with Spiral Features, Tracing Gas Flows

Leslie W. Looney, Zhe-Yu Daniel Lin, Zhi-Yun Li +11

Circumstellar disk dust polarization in the (sub)millimeter is, for the most part, not from dust grain alignment with magnetic fields but rather indicative of a combination of dust…

The Disk Orientations of Perseus Protostellar Multiples at 8 au Resolution

Nickalas K. Reynolds, John J. Tobin, Patrick D. Sheehan +6

We present a statistical characterization of circumstellar disk orientations toward 12 protostellar multiple systems in the Perseus molecular cloud using the Atacama Large Millimet…

Disks and Outflows in the Intermediate-mass Star Forming Region NGC 2071 IR

Yu Cheng, John J. Tobin, Yao-Lun Yang +13

We present ALMA band 6/7 (1.3 mm/0.87 mm) and VLA Ka band (9 mm) observations toward NGC 2071 IR, an intermediate-mass star forming region. We characterize the continuum and associ…

Kinematic Analysis of a Protostellar Multiple System: Measuring the Protostar Masses and Assessing Gravitational Instability in the Disks of L1448 IRS3B and L1448 IRS3A

Nickalas K. Reynolds, John J. Tobin, Patrick D. Sheehan +7

We present new Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) observations towards a compact (230~au separation) triple protostar system, L1448 IRS3B, at 879~\micron with \con…

The VLA/ALMA Nascent Disk and Multiplicity (VANDAM) Survey of Orion Protostars IV. Unveiling the Embedded Intermediate-Mass Protostar and Disk within OMC2-FIR3/HOPS-370

John J. Tobin, Patrick Sheehan, Nickalas Reynolds +13

We present ALMA (0.87~mm and 1.3~mm) and VLA (9~mm) observations toward the candidate intermediate-mass protostar OMC2-FIR3 (HOPS-370; L~314~L) at 0.1" (40~…

Detection of Irregular, Sub-mm Opaque Structures in the Orion Molecular Clouds: Protostars within 10000 years of formation?

Nicole Karnath, S. T. Megeath, John Tobin +10

We report ALMA and VLA continuum observations that potentially identify the four youngest protostars in the Orion Molecular Clouds taken as part of the Orion VANDAM program. These…

The VLA/ALMA Nascent Disk and Multiplicity (VANDAM) Survey of Orion Protostars. A Statistical Characterization of Class 0 and I Protostellar Disks

John J. Tobin, Patrick Sheehan, S. Thomas Megeath +33

We have conducted a survey of 328 protostars in the Orion molecular clouds with ALMA at 0.87 mm at a resolution of 0.1" (40 au), including observations with the VLA at 9 mm t…

The VLA/ALMA Nascent Disk and Multiplicity (VANDAM) Survey of Orion Protostars I. Identifying and Characterizing the Protostellar Content of the OMC2-FIR4 and OMC2-FIR3 Regions

John J. Tobin, S. Thomas Megeath, Merel van 't Hoff +31

We present ALMA (0.87~mm) and VLA (9~mm) observations toward OMC2-FIR4 and OMC2-FIR3 within the Orion integral-shaped filament that are thought to be the nearest regions of interme…

A Study of Ro-vibrational OH Emission from Herbig Ae/Be Stars

Sean D. Brittain, Joan R. Najita, John S. Carr +2

We present a study of ro-vibrational OH and CO emission from 21 disks around Herbig Ae/Be stars. We find that the OH and CO luminosities are proportional over a wide range of stell…
