FAUST XXVI. The dust opacity spectral indices of protostellar envelopes bridge the gap between interstellar medium and disks
Luca Cacciapuoti, L. Testi, A. J. Maury +36
The sub-millimetre dust opacity spectral index is a critical observable to constrain dust properties, such as the maximum grain size of an observed dust population. It has been wid…
FAUST XXIV. Large dust grains in the protostellar outflow cavity walls of the Class I binary L1551 IRS5
G. Sabatini, E. Bianchi, C. J. Chandler +19
Planet formation around young stars requires the growth of interstellar dust grains from mm-sized particles to km-sized planetesimals. Numerical simulations have shown that large (…
FAUST XXV. A potential new molecular outflow in [BHB2007] 11
A. Martínez-Henares, I. Jiménez-Serra, C. Vastel +26
During the early stages of star formation, accretion processes such as infall from the envelope and molecular streamers, and ejection of matter through winds and jets take place si…
ALMAGAL I. The ALMA evolutionary study of high-mass protocluster formation in the Galaxy. Presentation of the survey and early results
S. Molinari, P. Schilke, C. Battersby +73
Fundamental questions about the physics responsible for fragmenting molecular parsec-scale clumps into cores of ~1000 au are still open, that only a statistically significant inves…
FAUST XX. The chemical structure and temperature profile of the IRAS 4A2 hot corino at 20-50 au
J. Frediani, M. De Simone, L. Testi +20
Young low-mass protostars often possess hot corinos, compact, hot and dense regions bright in interstellar Complex Organic Molecules (iCOMs). Besides of their prebiotic role, iCOMs…
Evidence for Jet/Outflow Shocks Heating the Environment Around the Class I Protostellar Source Elias 29: FAUST XXI
Yoko Oya, Eri Saiga, Anna Miotello +1
We have observed the late Class I protostellar source Elias~29 at a spatial-resolution of 70~au with the Atacama~Large~Millimeter/submillimeter~Array (ALMA) as part of the FAUST La…
