The star formation history of Orion is structured and episodic
Alena Rottensteiner, João Alves, Stefan Meingast +6
The propagation of star formation throughout a molecular cloud complex can tell us much about its physical drivers and the importance of environmental versus intrinsic processes. W…
The fading hierarchy of Galactic open clusters
Guimei Liu, João Alves, Yu Zhang +7
Galactic open clusters provide a record of both hierarchical star formation and the subsequent dynamical evolution of the Milky Way disk. We use the two-point correlation function…
The Nearby Star Formation and Supernova Histories Reconstructed from Young Star Clusters
Cameren Swiggum, Catherine Zucker, Michelangelo Pantaleoni González +8
We reconstruct the recent star formation and core-collapse supernova (ccSN) histories of the Solar Neighborhood from the past trajectories of young star clusters. Using a \textit{G…
Accelerated gas flow along Ophiuchus B44 filament: Breaking Position-Position-Velocity degeneracy
J. Alves, C. Zucker, C. Lada +15
(Abridged) Stellar feedback from massive stars in the Upper-Sco has been proposed to have reshaped the gas in the nearby Ophiuchus complex. In this framework, feedback organizes th…
The superclouds of the local Milky Way
Lilly A. Kormann, João Alves, Michelangelo Pantaleoni González +3
Recent 3D dust maps of the local Milky Way are revolutionizing our understanding of the Sun's Galactic neighborhood, providing much needed insight into the large-scale organization…
Origin of the IRAS Vela Shell: New Insights from 3D Dust Mapping
Bore Annie Gao, Catherine Zucker, Tirupati Kumara Sridharan +15
The IRAS Vela Shell (IVS) is a structure of enhanced FIR emission located towards the Gum Nebula, a prominent region of emission in the local Milky Way shaped by various g…
From moving groups to star formation in the Solar Neighborhood
Cameren Swiggum, João Alves, Elena D'Onghia
Moving groups in the solar neighborhood are ensembles of co-moving stars, likely originating due to forces from spiral arms, the Galactic bar, or external perturbations. Their co-m…
The physical properties of Cluster Chains
Laura Posch, João Alves, Nuria Mirét-Roig +5
We explore the kinematics and star formation history of the Scorpius Centaurus (Sco-Cen) OB association following the initial identification of sequential, linearly aligned chains…
The Outflowing [OII] Nebulae of Compact Starburst Galaxies at z 0.5
Serena Perrotta, Alison L. Coil, David S. N. Rupke +11
High-velocity outflows are ubiquitous in compact, massive (M 10 M), z 0.5 galaxies with extreme star formation surface densities ( 20…
Most nearby young star clusters formed in three massive complexes
Cameren Swiggum, João Alves, Robert Benjamin +9
Efforts to unveil the structure of the local interstellar medium and its recent star formation history have spanned the past seventy years. Recent studies utilizing precise data fr…
The Radcliffe Wave is Oscillating
Ralf Konietzka, Alyssa A. Goodman, Catherine Zucker +6
Our Sun lies within 300 pc of the 2.7-kpc-long sinusoidal chain of dense gas clouds known as the Radcliffe Wave. The structure's wave-like shape was discovered using 3D dust mappin…
VISIONS: The VISTA Star Formation Atlas -- I. Survey overview
Stefan Meingast, João Alves, Hervé Bouy +37
VISIONS is an ESO public survey of five nearby (d < 500 pc) star-forming molecular cloud complexes that are canonically associated with the constellations of Chamaeleon, Corona Aus…
Kinematics, Structure, and Mass Outflow Rates of Extreme Starburst Galactic Outflows
Serena Perrotta, Alison L. Coil, David S. N. Rupke +10
We present results on the properties of extreme gas outflows in massive (10), compact, starburst ($200 \, \rm M_{\odot} \ yr^{-1}…
The star formation history of the Sco-Cen association. Coherent star formation patterns in space and time
Sebastian Ratzenböck, Josefa E. Großschedl, João Alves +13
We reconstruct the star formation history of the Sco-Cen OB association using a novel high-resolution age map of the region. We develop an approach to produce robust ages for Sco-C…
A 3D View of Orion: I. Barnard's Loop
Michael M. Foley, Alyssa Goodman, Catherine Zucker +11
Barnard's Loop is a famous arc of H emission located in the Orion star-forming region. Here, we provide evidence of a possible formation mechanism for Barnard's Loop and compare…
The Radcliffe Wave as the gas spine of the Orion Arm
Cameren Swiggum, João Alves, Elena D'Onghia +7
The Radcliffe Wave is a kpc long coherent gas structure containing most of the star-forming complexes near the Sun. In this Letter we aim to find a Galactic context for the…
Understanding the Nature of an Unusual Post-Starburst Quasar with Exceptionally Strong Ne V Emission
Cameren Swiggum, Christy Tremonti, Serena Perrotta +7
We present a quasar, SDSS J004846.45-004611.9, discovered in the SDSS-III BOSS survey. A visual analysis of this spectrum reveals highly broadened and blueshifted narrow…
Star formation near the Sun is driven by expansion of the Local Bubble
Catherine Zucker, Alyssa A. Goodman, João Alves +8
For decades we have known that the Sun lies within the Local Bubble, a cavity of low-density, high-temperature plasma surrounded by a shell of cold, neutral gas and dust. However,…
Evidence of a vertical kinematic oscillation beyond the Radcliffe Wave
Lekshmi Thulasidharan, Elena D'Onghia, Eloisa Poggio +5
The Radcliffe Wave (RW) is a recently discovered sinusoidal vertical feature of dense gas in the proximity of the Sun. In the disk plane, it is aligned with the Local Arm. However,…
