ALMA 0.1 pc View of Molecular Clouds Associated with High-Mass Protostellar Systems in the Small Magellanic Cloud: Are Low-Metallicity Clouds Filamentary or Not?

Kazuki Tokuda, Yuri Kunitoshi, Sarolta Zahorecz +13

Filamentary molecular clouds are an essential intermediate stage in the star formation process. To test whether these structures are universal throughout cosmic star formation hist…

Internal 1000 AU-scale Structures of the R CrA Cluster-forming Cloud -- I: Filamentary Structures

Kengo Tachihara, Naofumi Fukaya, Kazuki Tokuda +17

We report on ALMA ACA observations of a high-density region of the Corona Australis cloud forming a young star cluster, and the results of resolving internal structures. In additio…

Predicting reliable H column density maps from molecular line data using machine learning

Yoshito Shimajiri, Yasutomo Kawanishi, Shinji Fujita +13

The total mass estimate of molecular clouds suffers from the uncertainty in the H-CO conversion factor, the so-called factor, which is used to convert the C…

Distance determination of molecular clouds in the 1st quadrant of the Galactic plane using deep learning : I. Method and Results

Shinji Fujita, A. M. Ito, Yusuke Miyamoto +15

Machine learning has been successfully applied in varied field but whether it is a viable tool for determining the distance to molecular clouds in the Galaxy is an open question. I…

The Effect of Shock Wave Duration on Star Formation and the Initial Condition of Massive Cluster Formation

Daisei Abe, Tsuyoshi Inoue, Rei Enokiya +1

Stars are born in dense molecular filaments irrespective of their mass. Compression of the ISM by shocks cause filament formation in molecular clouds. Observations show that a mass…

An ALMA study of the massive molecular clump N159W-North in the Large Magellanic Cloud: A possible gas flow penetrating one of the most massive protocluster systems in the Local Group

Kazuki Tokuda, Taisei Minami, Yasuo Fukui +18

Massive dense clumps in the Large Magellanic Cloud can be an important laboratory to explore the formation of populous clusters. We report multiscale ALMA observations of the N159W…
