Magnetic field alignment with dense cores in the transition between cloud and core scales

Sean Yin, Ayush Pandhi, Rachel Friesen +7

In a magnetically-dominated model of star formation, we expect to see alignments between the magnetic field orientation of star-forming dense cores and the cloud-scale magnetic fie…

ALMASOP: Inner-Envelope Structures of Protostars Driving Nascent Jets

Somnath Dutta, Chin-Fei Lee, Naomi Hirano +15

Protostellar jets provide valuable insight into the evolutionary stage and formation history of star-forming cores in their earliest phases. We investigated the inner envelope stru…

The JCMT Gould Belt Survey Complete Core Catalogue: Core mass function variations between nearby molecular clouds

Kate Pattle, James Di Francesco, Jenny Hatchell +14

We present a catalogue of dense cores identified in James Clerk Maxwell Telescope (JCMT) Gould Belt Survey SCUBA-2 observations of nearby star-forming clouds. We identified 2257 de…

An S-shaped filament formed due to Cloud-Cloud Collision in molecular cloud G178.28-00.61

Tianwei Zhang, Tie Liu, Yuefang Wu +18

We present compelling observational evidence supporting G178.28-00.61 as an early-stage candidate for Cloud-Cloud Collision (CCC), with indications of the formation of an S-shaped…

ALMASOP. A Rotating Feature Rich in Complex Organic Molecules in a Protostellar Core

Shih-Ying Hsu, Chin-Fei Lee, Doug Johnstone +25

Interstellar complex organic molecules (COMs) in solar-like young stellar objects (YSOs), particularly within protostellar disks, are of significant interest due to their potential…

The JCMT BISTRO-3 Survey: Variation of magnetic field orientations on parsec and sub-parsec scales in the massive star-forming region G28.34+0.06

Jihye Hwang, Kate Pattle, Chang Won Lee +35

Magnetic fields play a significant role in star-forming processes on core to clump scales. We investigate magnetic field orientations and strengths in the massive star-forming clum…

The JCMT BISTRO Survey: Magnetic Fields Align with Orbital Structure in the Galactic Center

Janik Karoly, Derek Ward-Thompson, Kate Pattle +29

We present the magnetic field in the dense material of the Central Molecular Zone (CMZ) of the Milky Way, traced in 850 m polarized dust emission as part of the James Clerk Maxw…

The JCMT BISTRO Survey: The magnetised evolution of star-forming cores in the Ophiuchus Molecular Cloud interpreted using Histograms of Relative Orientation

James P. Perry, Kate Pattle, Doug Johnstone +17

The relationship between B-field orientation and density structure in molecular clouds is often assessed using the Histogram of Relative Orientations (HRO). We perform a plane-of-t…

The magnetic field in quiescent star-forming filament G16.96+0.27

Qi-Lao Gu, Tie Liu, Zhi-Qiang Shen +20

We present 850 μm thermal dust polarization observations with a resolution of 14.4"(~ 0.13 pc) towards an infrared dark cloud G16.96+0.27 using JCMT/POL-2. The average magnetic fie…

ALMASOP. The Localized and Chemically rich Features near the Bases of the Protostellar Jet in HOPS 87

Shih-Ying Hsu, Chin-Fei Lee, Sheng-Yuan Liu +24

HOPS 87 is a Class 0 protostellar core known to harbor an extremely young bipolar outflow and a hot corino. We report the discovery of localized, chemically rich regions near the b…

The TOP-SCOPE survey of Planck Galactic Cold Clumps: Survey overview and results of an exemplar source, PGCC G26.53+0.17

Tie Liu, Kee-Tae Kim, Mika Juvela +11

The low dust temperatures (<14 K) of Planck Galactic Cold Clumps (PGCCs) make them ideal targets to probe the initial conditions and very early phase of star formation. TOP-SCOPE i…

The JCMT Gould Belt Survey: Dense Core Clusters in Orion B

H. Kirk, D. Johnstone, J. Di Francesco +17

The JCMT Gould Belt Legacy Survey obtained SCUBA-2 observations of dense cores within three sub-regions of Orion B: LDN 1622, NGC 2023/2024, and NGC 2068/2071, all of which contain…

The initial conditions of isolated star formation - X. A suggested evolutionary diagram for prestellar cores

R. J. Simpson, D. Johnstone, D. Nutter +2

We propose an evolutionary path for prestellar cores on the radius-mass diagram, which is analogous to stellar evolutionary paths on the Hertzsprung-Russell Diagram. Using James Cl…
