A Study of the Magnetic Activity and Variability of GJ 436

M. Kumar, R. Fares

We present a magnetic activity study of GJ 436 using spectroscopic data from HARPS, spanning over 14 years, and additional data from NARVAL, falling within the HARPS observations.…

Analysis of physical processes in eruptive YSOs with near infrared spectra and multi-wavelength light curves

Zhen Guo, P. W. Lucas, C. Contreras Peña +11

The decade-long Vista Variables in the Via Lactea (VVV) survey has detected numerous highly variable young stellar objects (YSOs). We present a study of 61 highly variable VVV YSOs…

Accelerating infall and rotational spin-up in the hot molecular core G31.41+0.31

M. T. Beltrán, R. Cesaroni, V. M. Rivilla +20

As part of our effort to search for circumstellar disks around high-mass stellar objects, we observed the well-known core G31.41+0.31 with ALMA at 1.4 mm with an angular resolution…

Highly variable young massive stars in ATLASGAL clumps

M. S. N. Kumar, C. Contreras-Pena, P. W. Lucas +1

High-amplitude variability in Young Stellar Objects (YSOs) is usually associated with episodic accretion events. It has not been observed so far in massive YSOs. Here, the high-amp…

The ionizing sources of luminous compact HII regions in the RCW106 and RCW122 clouds

J. M. C. Grave, M. S. N. Kumar, D. K. Ojha +2

Given the rarity of young O star candidates, compact HII regions embedded in dense molecular cores continue to serve as potential sites to peer into the details of high-mass star f…

Molecular hydrogen jets and outflows in the Serpens south filamentary cloud

G. D. C. Teixeira, M. S. N. Kumar, R. Bachiller +1

We aimed to map the jets and outflows from the Serpens South star forming region and find an empirical relationship between the magnetic field and outflow orientation. Near-infrare…
