Constraining Dust Properties Along the Minor Axis of Andromeda

Sihan Jiao, Linjing Feng, Henrik Beuther +16

Previous studies of dust emission in M31 based primarily on Herschel data have reported inconsistent radial trends in the dust emissivity index (), partly due to limited wavelen…

ACES VII. Compact Continuum Source Catalog of the Central Molecular Zone

Jennifer Wallace, Cara Battersby, Nazar Budaiev +58

The Central Molecular Zone (CMZ) resides in the inner few hundred parsecs of our Galaxy, and despite being the largest reservoir of dense molecular gas in the Milky Way, it has a r…

Dense Cores in the Vicinity of an HII Region

Ruofei Zhang, Xing Lu, Jingwen Wu +23

Massive stars strongly influence their surroundings through radiative and mechanical feedback, but its effects on dense gas structures at sub-pc scales remain poorly constrained. W…

MIAO-ALMA: Shocks and Protostellar Outflows in 70 m-dark clumps with 1 /

Shuting Lin, Siyi Feng, Junzhi Wang +16

To investigate the initial conditions of high-mass star-forming regions, we use SiO (2-1) emission to trace early shock-related kinematics toward sixteen 70 m-dark and massive c…

ALOHA IRDCs Molecular Line Follow-up: I. Gas properties and kinematics

Jinjin Xie, Yaoting Yan, Zhiyuan Ren +109

Infrared Dark Clouds are ideal sites for investigating the initial conditions of massive star and cluster formation. The A Lei Of the Habitat and Assembly of Infrared Dark Clouds (…

How Should We Understand the Core Mass Function? A memo of the CMF2IMF conference at ESO Garching

Fengwei Xu, Roberto Galvan-Madrid, Kaho Morii +4

The origin of the stellar initial mass function (IMF) remains one of the central questions in astronomy. Nearly three decades ago, the resemblance between the core mass function (C…

Gravitationally Lensed View of DSFG-1 in PLCK G165.7+67.0: Strong Dust Emission and Spatially Resolved Stellar Population Analysis with JWST and SMA

Zhiyu Yan, Daizhong Liu, Y. Sophia Dai +7

We present a detailed stellar population analysis of the strongly lensed dusty star-forming galaxy (DSFG) PLCK G165.7+67.0 DSFG-1 at , combining JWST NIRCam imaging with…

Galactic Large-scale Filaments Resident in Asymmetric Environments: Clues from Cross-filament Profiles of Density and Temperature

Keyun Su, Ke Wang, Fengwei Xu +1

Large-scale filaments ubiquitously exist in the Galactic interstellar medium, and their radial profiles offer insights into their formation mechanisms. We present a statistical ana…

Dense Molecular Ring-like structure in gaseous CO depletion region G34.74-0.12

Shuting Lin, Siyi Feng, Fengwei Xu +14

We report the discovery of a dense molecular ring-like structure in a dense (10 cm), cold (pc-scale CO depletion at a factor of 5), and young (10 year) star-forming…

The ALMA Survey of 70 m Dark High-mass Clumps in Early Stages (ASHES). XII. Unanchored Forked Stream in the Propagating Path of a Protostellar Outflow

Shuting Lin, Siyi Feng, Patricio Sanhueza +14

Outflows are key indicators of ongoing star formation. We report the discovery of an unanchored forked stream within the propagating path of an extremely young protostellar outflow…

Why is the Star Formation Rate Proportional to Dense Gas Mass?

Sihan Jiao, Fengwei Xu, Hauyu Baobab Liu +14

One of the most profound empirical laws of star formation is the Gao-Solomon relation, a linear correlation between the star formation rate (SFR) and the dense molecular gas mass.…

Massive Star Formation Starts in Sub-virial Dense Clumps Unless Resisted by Strong Magnetic Fields

Ke Wang, Yueluo Wang, Fengwei Xu

The initial conditions are critical for understanding high-mass star formation, but are not well observed. Built on our previous characterization of a Galaxy-wide sample of 463 can…

JCMT 850 $\micron$ continuum observations of density structures in the G35 molecular complex

Xianjin Shen, Hong-Li Liu, Zhiyuan Ren +32

Filaments are believed to play a key role in high-mass star formation. We present a systematic study of the filaments and their hosting clumps in the G35 molecular complex using JC…
