Characterising magnetic fields at the onset of star cluster formation: From giant molecular clouds to infrared dark clumps

Ria Ramkumar, Nicolas Peretto, Gary A. Fuller +2

The role of magnetic fields in the observed inefficiency of star formation in Galactic molecular clouds is a widely debated topic, with the past decade seeing an explosion of obser…

An inverted infall profile for the collapse of the massive star-forming IRDC SDC335.579-0.292

Jinjin Xie, Gary A. Fuller, Di Li +8

There is increasing evidence for global collapse of clumps over parsec-scales in massive star formation regions. Such collapse may result in characteristic molecular line emission…

Bowshocks driven by the pole-on molecular jet of outbursting protostar SVS 13

G. Blázquez-Calero, G. Anglada, S. Cabrit +13

Outflows play a key role in the star and planet formation processes. Some outflows show discrete clumps of cold molecular gas moving at extremely high velocities (EHVs) of 10…

The H2 Glow of a Quiescent Molecular Cloud Observed with JWST

Paul F. Goldsmith, Shengzhe Wang, Xin Wang +6

We report JWST MIRI/MRS observations of the H2 S(1) 17.04 micron transition in two regions in the boundary of the Taurus Molecular Cloud. The two regions, denoted Edge (near the re…

The JCMT BISTRO Survey: Unveiling the Magnetic Fields around Galactic Center

Meng-Zhe Yang, Shih-Ping Lai, Janik Karoly +40

We acquired 450 μm and 850 μm dust continuum polarization observations toward the inner region of the Central Molecular Zone (CMZ) as part of the B-Fields In Star-Forming Region…

A Tale of Three: Magnetic Fields along the Orion Integral-Shaped Filament as Revealed by JCMT BISTRO survey

Jintai Wu, Keping Qiu, Frederick Poidevin +152

As part of the BISTRO survey, we present JCMT 850 m polarimetric observations towards the Orion Integral-Shaped Filament (ISF) that covers three portions known as OMC-1, OMC-2,…
