The ALMA-QUARKS survey: A Keplerian Circumbinary Disk Candidate in the High-mass Star-forming Region IRAS 08303-4303
Gyuho Lee, Kee-Tae Kim, Tie Liu +33
We present the ALMA Band 6 continuum and molecular line observations of IRAS 08303-4303, a high-mass star-forming region, with an angular resolution of ( au…
The ALMA-QUARKS Survey. IV. Core Mass Function and Evolutionary Trends in Core Formation Efficiency and Chemistry
Wenyu Jiao, Tie Liu, Dongting Yang +43
The ALMA-QUARKS (Querying Underlying Mechanisms of Massive Star Formation with ALMA-Resolved Gas Kinematics and Structures) survey targets 139 massive protoclusters selected from t…
ALMA Reveals an Explosive Outflow Candidate in IRAS 16119--5048
Yongquan Luo, Jianjun Zhou, Tie Liu +24
We present a multiwavelength study of the massive star formation region IRAS 16119-5048 (I16119) using ALMA ATOMS Band 3 and QUARKS Band 6 observations, complemented by archival AT…
An Eccentric Massive Protobinary Assembled via a Core-merger Parabolic Encounter
Yao Wang, Yichen Zhang, Rubén Fedriani +14
Most massive stars form in binary systems, which profoundly influence their subsequent evolution. However, how such systems form remains poorly understood, with several competing s…
Evolution of starless cores in massive clumps seen by the ALMA ASHES and QUARKS surveys
Dongting Yang, Hong-li Liu, Sheng-li Qin +28
We present a systematic comparative analysis of 324 starless cores in early-phase infrared-dark clouds (IRDCs; ASHES survey) and evolved-phase infrared-bright clouds (IRBCs; QUARKS…
ALMA-QUARKS view of W49N: Multipolar episodic outflow associated with the most energetic Galactic water maser
Yunfan Jiao, Tie Liu, Wenyu Jiao +28
We present a detailed investigation of a multipolar episodic molecular outflow in the mini-starburst region W49N, which hosts the most luminous water maser in the Galaxy. Using hig…
Random gas motions inside sub-parsec scale supercritical filaments
Chao Zhang, Tie Liu, Mika Juvela +12
Supercritical gas filaments in molecular clouds host the dense cores in which new stars form. The mechanisms governing their formation and subsequent gas accretion remain poorly un…
The ALMA-QUARKS Survey: Evidence of an Explosive Molecular Outflow in IRAS 15520--5234
Ariful Hoque, Tapas Baug, Estrella Guzman +25
We present a study of the massive protocluster IRAS 155205234, which displays evidence of an explosive molecular outflow that unleashed a kinetic energy of at least 10 er…
The ALMA-QUARKS survey: Investigating Thermal Feedback of Massive Protostars in Hot Molecular Cores
Dezhao Meng, Tie Liu, Jarken Esimbek +33
We identify a sample of 83 spatially resolved hot molecular cores (HMCs) in the QUARKS survey, aiming at investigating thermal feedback from massive stars. Using CHCN\,(12--11)…
Linear filament and nested cluster evolution tomography (LANCET) I. Capture the evolution of dense gas in 14-parsec filament G316.8
Fengwei Xu, Ke Wang, Nicola Schneider +12
A dynamic view of mass assembly is essential for understanding the formation of massive stars and clusters. Interpreting evolutionary diagnostics from Galactic-wide surveys, howeve…
The ALMA-QUARKS Survey: Discovery of Superfine Dusty Fibrils inside Massive Star-forming Clumps
Yan-Kun Zhang, Tie Liu, Wenyu Jiao +35
We report the discovery of more than 320 superfine dusty filamentary structures (fibrils) inside 121 massive star forming clumps that are located in widely different Galactic envir…
ATOMS-QUARKS survey: Inflow and infall in massive protocluster G318.049+00.086: Evidence of competitive accretion
Shivani Gupta, Tapas Baug, Archana Soam +17
We present a gas kinematic study of the massive protocluster G318.049+00.086. The protocluster is reported to contain 12 prestellar core candidates and 4 protostellar cores. Filame…
The ALMA-ATOMS survey: Methanol emission in a large sample of hot molecular cores
Jiahang Zou, Tie Liu, Sheng-Li Qin +26
Methanol (CHOH) is a key complex organic molecule (COM) in the interstellar medium, widely used as a tracer of dense gas and hot molecular cores (HMCs). Using high-resolution…
Digging into the Interior of Hot Cores with ALMA (DIHCA). VII. Disk candidates around high-mass stars and evidence of anisotropic infall
Fernando A. Olguin, Patricio Sanhueza, Yoko Oya +19
We study the kinematics of condensations in 30 fields forming high-mass stars with ALMA at a high-resolution of ~0.08'' on average (~230 au). The presence of disks is important for…
