NIR jets from a clustered region of massive star formation: Morphology and composition in the IRAS 18264-1152 region
A. R. Costa Silva, R. Fedriani, J. C. Tan +6
Massive stars form deeply embedded in their parental clouds, making it challenging to directly observe these stars and their immediate environments. It is known that accretion and…
KMOS study of the mass accretion rate from Class I to Class II in NGC 1333
Eleonora Fiorellino, Carlo Felice Manara, Brunella Nisini +6
The mass accretion rate is the fundamental parameter to understand the process of mass assembly that results in the formation of a low-mass star. This parameter has been largely st…
The young massive star cluster Westerlund 2 observed with MUSE. I. First results on the cluster internal motion from stellar radial velocities
Peter Zeidler, Elena Sabbi, Antonella Nota +7
Westerlund 2 (Wd2) is the central ionizing star cluster of the \ion{H}{2} region RCW~49 and the second most massive young star cluster (${\rm M} = (3.6 \pm 0.3)\times 10^4\,{\rm M}…
Discovery of two embedded massive YSOs and an outflow in IRAS 18144-1723
W. P. Varricatt, J. G. A. Wouterloot, S. K. Ramsay +1
Massive stars are rarely seen to form in isolation. It has been proposed that association with companions or clusters in the formative stages is vital to their mass accumulation. I…
CRIRES-POP: a library of high resolution spectra from 1 to 5 microns II. Data reduction and the spectrum of the K giant 10 Leo
C. P. Nicholls, T. Lebzelter, A. Smette +12
Context. High resolution stellar spectral atlases are valuable resources to astronomy. They are rare in the m region for historical reasons, but once available, high reso…
The Pillars of Creation revisited with MUSE: gas kinematics and high-mass stellar feedback traced by optical spectroscopy
A. F. Mc Leod, J. E. Dale, A. Ginsburg +4
Integral field unit (IFU) data of the iconic Pillars of Creation in M16 are presented. The ionisation structure of the pillars was studied in great detail over almost the entire vi…
Star formation in the luminous YSO IRAS 18345-0641
Watson P. Varricatt, Holly S. Thomas, Chris J. Davis +2
Aims: We aim to understand the star formation associated with the luminous young stellar object (YSO) IRAS 18345-0641 and to address the complications arising from unresolved multi…
CRIRES-POP: A library of high resolution spectra in the near-infrared
T. Lebzelter, A. Seifahrt, S. Uttenthaler +10
New instrumental capabilities and the wealth of astrophysical information extractable from the near-infrared wavelength region have led to a growing interest in the field of high r…
Gas in Protoplanetary Discs (GASPS) 1. First results
G. S. Mathews, W. R. F. Dent, J. P. Williams +50
Context - Circumstellar discs are ubiquitous around young stars, but rapidly dissipate their gas and dust on timescales of a few Myr. The Herschel space observatory allows for the…
A near IR imaging survey of intermediate and high-mass young stellar outflow candidates
Watson P. Varricatt, Christopher J. Davis, Suzanne Ramsay +1
We have carried out a near-infrared imaging survey of luminous young stellar outflow candidates using the United Kingdom Infrared Telescope. Observations were obtained in the broad…
