Early phases of star formation with SKAO: synchrotron emission from dense starless cores in molecular clouds
Andrea Bracco, Tyler L. Bourke, Stefano Bovino +8
Magnetic fields play a central role in the star-formation process, from diffuse gas to the dense, starless, molecular cloud cores that represent the first gravitationally bound str…
The Keplerian disk, envelope, and streamers surrounding an early O-type protostar in the Sagittarius C cloud of the Central Molecular Zone
Jixiang Weng, Xing Lu, Yu Cheng +22
Disk-mediated accretion is central to theories of massive star formation, setting the initial conditions for their evolution. Yet observations of Keplerian disks around early O-typ…
Unveiling an Hourglass-Shaped Magnetic Field toward IRDC G351.77-0.53
O. R. Jadhav, L. K. Dewangan, I. I. Zinchenko +5
We present the SOFIA/HAWC+ 214 m polarimetric observations toward the infrared dark cloud G351.77-0.53 (hereafter G351), complemented by existing multi-wavelength data sets. In…
ALMA Central molecular zone Exploration Survey (ACES) V: CS(2-1), SO(2_3-1_2), CH3CHO(5_1,4-4_1,3), HC3N(11-10), and H40a lines data
Pei-Ying Hsieh, Daniel L. Walker, Adam Ginsburg +59
We present data from the ALMA Central Molecular Zone Exploration Survey (ACES) Large Program, which provides broad spectral-line and 3 mm continuum coverage of the Central Molecula…
SIMPLIFI-Study of Interstellar Magnetic Polarization: A Legacy Investigation of Filaments. II. Enhancement of grain alignment near embedded protostars in the DR21 Ridge
S. Kumar, T. G. S. Pillai, G. V. Panopoulou +10
Thermal dust continuum polarimetry is a powerful indirect probe of magnetic field geometry in dense molecular clouds while at the same time providing information on the alignment o…
Parallel Alignments between Magnetic Fields and Dense Structures in the Central Molecular Zone
Xing Pan, Qizhou Zhang, Keping Qiu +8
The recent Far-Infrared Polarimetric Large-Area Central Molecular Zone Exploration (FIREPLACE) survey with SOFIA has mapped plane-of-the-sky magnetic field orientations within the…
