Interferometric molecular line observations toward the 21 μm protoplanetary nebula IRAS 06530-0213

Hao-Min Sun, Zhuang Zhang, Jun-Yang Liu +2

The identification of the feature in some protoplanetary nebulae remains a longstanding puzzle, whose interpretation requires characterization of the molecular ga…

The ALMA-QUARKS Survey: Discovery of Superfine Dusty Fibrils inside Massive Star-forming Clumps

Yan-Kun Zhang, Tie Liu, Wenyu Jiao +35

We report the discovery of more than 320 superfine dusty filamentary structures (fibrils) inside 121 massive star forming clumps that are located in widely different Galactic envir…

The ALMA-QUARKS survey: Hot Molecular Cores are a long-standing phenomenon in the evolution of massive protostars

Dezhao Meng, Tie Liu, Jarken Esimbek +34

We present an analysis of the QUARKS survey sample, focusing on protoclusters where Hot Molecular Cores (HMCs, traced by CH3CN(12--11)) and UC HII regions (traced by H30α/H40α) coe…

Cocoon-to-Butterfly Transformation in Protoplanetary Nebula: Detection of a Spherical Halo and a Barrel-shaped Torus in IRAS 065300213

Hao-Min Sun, Yong Zhang, Sheng-Li Qin

Protoplanetary nebulae (PPNs) represent a critical evolutionary bridging stage between the asymptotic giant branch (AGB) and planetary nebula (PN) stages. Their dynamical structure…

Search for binarity in Asymptotic Giant Branch stars utilizing the future Chinese Space Station Telescope (CSST)

Zhi-Meng Li, Yong Zhang

Binary systems in the Asymptotic Giant Branch (AGB) phase are widely recognized as a leading theoretical framework underpinning the observed asymmetric morphologies of planetary ne…

The ALMA-ATOMS Survey: Exploring Protostellar Outflows in HCN

Ariful Hoque, Tapas Baug, Lokesh K. Dewangan +25

We present the first systematic study of bipolar outflows using HCN as a tracer in a sample of 146 massive star-forming regions from ALMA-ATOMS survey. Protostellar outflows ar…

The ALMA-ATOMS survey: Vibrationally excited HCN lines in hot cores

Li Chen, Sheng-Li Qin, Tie Liu +26

Interstellar molecules are excellent tools for studying the physical and chemical environments of massive star-forming regions. In particular, vibrationally excited HCN (HC…

ATOMS: ALMA three-millimeter observations of massive star-forming regions -- XVIII. On the origin and evolution of dense gas fragments in molecular shells of compact HII regions

Siju Zhang, Tie Liu, Ke Wang +16

Fragmentation and evolution for the molecular shells of the compact HII regions are less explored compared to their evolved counterparts. We map nine compact HII regions with a typ…

A far-ultraviolet-driven photoevaporation flow observed in a protoplanetary disk

Olivier Berné, Emilie Habart, Els Peeters +143

Most low-mass stars form in stellar clusters that also contain massive stars, which are sources of far-ultraviolet (FUV) radiation. Theoretical models predict that this FUV radiati…
