ALMA-IMF XXII. Role of core subfragmentation in the IMF origin: Hierarchical fragmentation cascade and CMF in W43-MM1

F. Motte, N. Le Nestour, R. Veyry +29

We aim to predict how the currently observed top-heavy CMF in the massive protocluster W43-MM1 evolves due to core subfragmentation. We used getsf to extract sources in 5 ALMA imag…

Stellar masses and ages in Gaia Data Release 4 from the Final Luminosity Age Mass Estimator algorithm

Orlagh L. Creevey, Laia Casamiquela, Yveline Lebreton +23

The masses and ages of stars are key quantities for understanding exoplanetary, stellar, and galactic evolution. In the context of Gaia, these parameters provide insights into the…

Gaia DR3 high radial velocity stars: Genuine fast-moving objects or outliers?

D. Katz, A. Gómez, E. Caffau +39

The third Gaia data release includes 33.8 million radial velocity measurements, extending to a magnitude of G_RVS = 14. To reach this magnitude limit, spectra were processed down t…

Gaia FGK Benchmark Stars: spectral library, metallicities and abundances of and Fe-peak elements of the third version

L. Casamiquela, C. Soubiran, P. Jofré +14

The accurate determination of chemical abundances in stars plays a pivotal role in understanding stellar structure and evolution, nucleosynthesis, and the chemical enrichment histo…

ALMA-IMF XVII -- Census and lifetime of high-mass prestellar cores in 14 massive protoclusters

M. Valeille-Manet, S. Bontemps, T. Csengeri +24

High-mass prestellar cores are extremely rare. The search for such objects has long been hindered by small sample sizes, leading to large uncertainties in their lifetimes and the c…

ALMA-IMF XVI: Mass-averaged temperature of cores and protostellar luminosities in the ALMA-IMF protoclusters

F. Motte, Y. Pouteau, T. Nony +34

ALMA-IMF imaged 15 massive protoclusters down to a resolution of of 2 kau scales, identifying about 1000 star-forming cores. The mass and luminosity of these cores, which are funda…
