ALMA-IMF XV: The core mass function in the high-mass star-formation regime

F. Louvet, P. Sanhueza, A. Stutz +38

The stellar initial mass function (IMF) is critical to our understanding of star formation and the effects of young stars on their environment. On large scales, it enables us to us…

Benchmarking the IRDC G351.77-0.53: Gaia DR3 distance, mass distribution, and star formation content

S. D. Reyes-Reyes, A. M. Stutz, S. T. Megeath +4

While intensively studied, it remains unclear how the star formation (SF) in Infrared Dark Clouds (IRDCs) compares to that of nearby clouds. We study G351.77-0.53 (henceforth G351)…

ALMA-IMF X -- The core population in the evolved W33-Main (G012.80) protocluster

M. Armante, A. Gusdorf, F. Louvet +21

We aimed to measure the CMF in the evolved W33-Main star-forming protocluster to compare it with CMF recently obtained in other Galactic star-forming regions, including the ones in…

Feedback from protoclusters does not significantly change the kinematic properties of the embedded dense gas structures

J. W. Zhou, S. Dib, F. Wyrowski +11

A total of 64 ATOMS sources at different evolutionary stages were selected to investigate the kinematics and dynamics of gas structures under feedback. We identified dense gas stru…
