The CepA disk-outflow system at <=0.2'' or <=100au resolution

H. Beuther, C. Gieser, V. Aberham +21

Context: Although there has been significant progress, the physical properties and potential fragmentation of accretion disks around high-mass protostars remain poorly constrained.…

astro-ph.GA2023

Density distributions, magnetic field structures and fragmentation in high-mass star formation

H. Beuther, C. Gieser, J. D. Soler +19

Methods: Observing the large pc-scale Stokes I mm dust continuum emission with the IRAM 30m telescope and the intermediate-scale (<0.1pc) polarized submm dust emission with the Sub…

Atmospheric Recyling of Volatiles by Pebble-Accreting Planets

Yu Wang, Chris W. Ormel, Pinghui Huang +1

Planets, embedded in their natal discs, harbour hot envelopes. When pebbles are accreted by these planets, the contained volatile components may sublimate, enriching the envelope a…

X-Shooting ULLYSES: massive stars at low metallicity. I. Project Description

Jorick S. Vink, A. Mehner, P. A. Crowther +78

Observations of individual massive stars, super-luminous supernovae, gamma-ray bursts, and gravitational-wave events involving spectacular black-hole mergers, indicate that the low…

Kinematics and stability of high-mass protostellar disk candidates at sub-arcsecond resolution -- Insights from the IRAM NOEMA large program CORE

Aida Ahmadi, H. Beuther, F. Bosco +28

The fragmentation mode of high-mass molecular clumps and the accretion processes that form the most massive stars () are still not well understood. To this end,…

The Planetary Accretion Shock. III. Smoothing-free 2.5D simulations and calculation of H alpha emission

Gabriel-Dominique Marleau, Rolf Kuiper, William Béthune +1

Surveys have looked for H alpha emission from accreting gas giants but found very few objects. Analyses of the detections and non-detections have assumed that the entire gas flow f…
