GASTON-GP: Source catalogue and millimetre variability of massive protostellar objects

Ji-Xuan Zhou, Nicolas Peretto, A. J. Rigby +56

The processes governing protostellar mass growth remain debated, although episodic accretion is now understood as a key feature of protostellar evolution across all masses. Luminos…

A large, long-lived, slowly-expanding superbubble across the Perseus Arm

Bingqiu Chen, Guangxing Li, Haibo Yuan +5

Stellar feedback is a crucial mechanism in galactic evolution, as demonstrated by the widespread bubbles observed with JWST. In this study, we combine data from Gaia and LAMOST to…

A recent re-acceleration of the Local Bubble revealed by kinematics of young star associations

Guang-Ya Zeng, Guang-Xing Li, Bing-Qiu Chen +2

The low-density region of the interstellar medium (ISM) where the Sun is located is known as the Local Bubble, a cavity filled with high-temperature and low-density plasma that may…

Kinematics of the interstellar medium using Gaia: A catalogue of 102 YSO-MC associations within 3.5 kpc from the Sun with 3D velocities

Ji-Xuan Zhou, Guang-Xing Li, Bing-Qiu Chen

Kinematic information is crucial for understanding the evolution of complex systems, such as interstellar gas. Obtaining full 3D kinematic information is a crucial final step for m…

Little time for oscillation: Fast disruption of the Radcliffe Wave by Galactic motions

Guang-Xing Li, Ji-Xuan Zhou, Bing-Qiu Chen

The Radcliffe wave \cite{2020Natur.578..237A} is a 2.7 kpc long, 100 pc wide-like structure in the Galactic disk with a wave-like velocity structure \cite{2022MNRAS.517L.102L,2024a…

Gas content and evolution of a sample of YSO associations at 3.5 kpc from the Sun

Ji-Xuan Zhou, Guang-Xing Li, Bing-Qiu Chen

Young Stellar Objects (YSO) are newly formed stars from molecular clouds. They stay close to where they were born and serve as good tracers to study gas and star formation. During…

Weather Forecast of the Milky Way: Shear and Stellar feedback determine the lives of Galactic-scale filaments

Guang-Xing Li, Ji-Xuan Zhou, Bing-Qiu Chen

The interstellar medium (ISM) is an inseparable part of the Milky Way ecosystem whose evolutionary history remains a challenging question. We trace the evolution of the molecular I…

Density Exponent Analysis: Gravity-driven steepening of the density profiles of star-forming regions

Guang-Xing Li, Ji-Xuan Zhou

The evolution of molecular interstellar clouds is a complex, multi-scale process. The power-law density exponent describes the steepness of density profiles, and it has been used t…
