IPA: Morphology and Kinematics of Molecular Hydrogen Winds in Five Young Protostars across the Mass Spectrum Observed with JWST

Himanshu Tyagi, P. Manoj, Mayank Narang +29

Molecular winds may play a key role in governing angular momentum transport and accretion during the early evolution of protostars. We present the morphology and kinematic properti…

JOYS: Launching and destruction of dust in protostellar jets. The case of BHR71-IRS1 with JWST/MIRI

Łukasz Tychoniec, Logan Francis, Maria Gabriela Navarro +24

Protostellar winds can theoretically lift solids from the planet-forming disks, but direct evidence for launched dust has been scarce so far. Numerous atomic lines that are unique…

Investigating the Nested Structure of the Outflow from the Low Luminosity Protostar IRAS 16253-2429 using JWST and ALMA

Mayank Narang, Himanshu Tyagi, Nagayoshi Ohashi +37

Understanding the earliest stage of star and planet formation requires detailed observations to address the connection and interplay between the accretion, outflow and disk evoluti…

A Chemistry-First Centered Icy Chemical Inventory of Protostellar Sources with JWST

Andrew M. Turner, Yao-Lun Yang, Rachel Gross +2

The chemical evolution in star forming regions is driven by the interplay between gas and ice mantles. Identifying the ice compositions at the early stage of star formation thus pr…

The Structure and Kinematics of Three Class 0 Protostellar Jets from JWST

Samuel A. Federman, S. Thomas Megeath, Alessio Caratti o Garatti +20

We present observations of jets within 2000 au of three deeply embedded protostars using 2.9-27 micron observations with JWST. These observations show the morphologies and kinemati…

CORINOS IV: Quantifying Baseline-Fitting Uncertainties in SO Ice Measurements with JWST/MIRI

Rachel E. Gross, Yao-Lun Yang, L. Ilsedore Cleeves +15

Sulfur dioxide (SO) ice has been tentatively detected in protostellar envelopes, but its reliability as a solid-state sulfur reservoir remains unclear. We present new measureme…
