Water maser detections toward 70 m infrared dark clumps at early star formation stage
Chao Ou, Shanghuo Li, Junzhi Wang +2
Water masers provided powerful probes of shocked gas and protostellar activity during the early stages of star formation. Using VLA K-band observations of the 22 GHz water line, we…
The gas kinematics in 70 μm dark molecular clumps with ammonia
Chao Ou, Shanghuo Li, Junzhi Wang +5
We present the investigation of the gas kinematics and assess the evolutionary stages of dense cores embedded in four infrared dark clouds (IRDCs) using the NH(1,1) and NH(…
The dominance of turbulence over magnetism in the formation of massive star cluster seeds
Junhao Liu, Patricio Sanhueza, Piyali Saha +32
High-mass stars form in protoclusters, where gravo-magnetic processes shape collapsing clouds and clumps to be elongated preferentially perpendicular to magnetic (B) fields. Yet it…
Dense Molecular Clumps with Large Blue Asymmetries: Evidence for Collapse
James M. Jackson, J. Scott Whitaker, Edward Chambers +10
An analysis of the Millimetre Astronomy Legacy Team 90 GHz (MALT90) survey has produced a sample of 27 candidate dense molecular clumps with large collapse motions, as revealed by…
B-field Orion Protostellar Survey (BOPS). IV: The Relative Orientation Between Magnetic Fields and Density Structures in Young Protostellar Envelopes
Kexin Cai, Bo Huang, Josep Miquel Girart +7
We investigate the relative alignment between density structures and magnetic fields in eight young protostars from the ALMA B-field Orion Protostellar Survey. Column density maps…
Magnetic Fields in Massive Star-forming Regions (MagMaR). VI. Magnetic Field Dragging in the Filamentary High-mass Star-forming Region G35.20--0.74N due to Gravity
Jihye Hwang, Patricio Sanhueza, Josep Miquel Girart +27
We investigate the magnetic field orientation and strength in the massive star-forming region G35.20-0.74N (G35), using polarized dust emission data obtained with the Atacama Large…
Magnetic Fields in the Bones of the Milky Way
Ian W. Stephens, Simon Coude, Philip C. Myers +20
Stars primarily form in galactic spiral arms within dense, filamentary molecular clouds. The largest and most elongated of these molecular clouds are referred to as ``bones," which…
Magnetic Fields in Massive Star-forming Regions (MagMaR). V. The Magnetic Field at the Onset of High-mass Star Formation
Patricio Sanhueza, Junhao Liu, Kaho Morii +36
A complete understanding of the initial conditions of high-mass star formation and what processes determine multiplicity require the study of the magnetic field (B-field) in young,…
Magnetic Fields in Massive Star-forming Regions (MagMaR): Unveiling an Hourglass Magnetic Field in G333.46-0.16 using ALMA
Piyali Saha, Patricio Sanhueza, Marco Padovani +33
The contribution of the magnetic field to the formation of high-mass stars is poorly understood. We report the high-angular resolution (, 870 au) map of the…
MagMar III -- Resisting the Pressure, Is the Magnetic Field Overwhelmed in NGC6334I?
Paulo C. Cortes, Josep M. Girart, Patricio Sanhueza +23
We report on ALMA observations of polarized dust emission at 1.2 mm from NGC6334I, a source known for its significant flux outbursts. Between five months, our data show no substant…
Absorption and Self-Absorption of [C II] and [O I] Far Infrared Lines Towards a Bright Bubble in the Nessie Infrared Dark Cloud
J. M. Jackson, J. S. Whitaker, E. T. Chambers +15
Using the upGREAT instrument on SOFIA, we have imaged [C II] 157.74 and [O I] 63.18 micron line emission from a bright photodissociation region (PDR) associated with an ionized ``b…
Observations of high-order multiplicity in a high-mass stellar protocluster
Shanghuo Li, Patricio Sanhueza, Henrik Beuther +13
The dominant mechanism forming multiple stellar systems in the high-mass regime (M 8 ) remained unknown because direct imaging of multiple protostellar s…
Asymmetric Line Profiles in Dense Molecular Clumps Observed in MALT90: Evidence for Global Collapse
James M. Jackson, J. Scott Whitaker, J. M. Rathborne +6
Using molecular line data from the Millimetre Astronomy Legacy Team 90 GHz Survey (MALT90), we have searched the optically thick \hcop\, line for the "blue asymmetry" spectroscopic…
The Radio Ammonia Mid-Plane Survey (RAMPS) Pilot Survey
Taylor Hogge, James Jackson, Ian Stephens +11
The Radio Ammonia Mid-Plane Survey (RAMPS) is a molecular line survey that aims to map a portion of the Galactic midplane in the first quadrant of the Galaxy (l = 10 deg - 40 deg,…
