Molecular cloud dispersal traced by the ionized carbon 158 micron line
L. Bonne, N. Schneider, S. Dannhauer +14
Feedback from massive stars in the form of radiation and winds impacts the associated host molecular cloud. Feedback can disperse cloud material and lead to the destruction of the…
Global and Local Infall in the ASHES Sample (GLASHES). II. Asymmetric Line Profiles around Dense Cores in 70 m Dark Massive Clumps
Kaho Morii, Patricio Sanhueza, Qizhou Zhang +1
Gravitational collapse is fundamental to star formation, yet direct kinematic evidence of infall at the core scale in high-mass star-forming regions remains poorly constrained. We…
Dense Molecular Clumps with Large Blue Asymmetries: Evidence for Collapse
James M. Jackson, J. Scott Whitaker, Edward Chambers +10
An analysis of the Millimetre Astronomy Legacy Team 90 GHz (MALT90) survey has produced a sample of 27 candidate dense molecular clumps with large collapse motions, as revealed by…
Magnetic Fields in the Bones of the Milky Way
Ian W. Stephens, Simon Coude, Philip C. Myers +20
Stars primarily form in galactic spiral arms within dense, filamentary molecular clouds. The largest and most elongated of these molecular clouds are referred to as ``bones," which…
