IPA. Accretion rate of a low-mass Class 0 protostar, measured via mid-infrared fluorescent OH emission

Dan M. Watson, Mayank Narang, Caeley V. Pittman +41

The earliest stages of star formation are highlighted by complex interactions between accretion, outflow, and radiative processes, which shape the chemical and physical environment…

JWST-IPA: Chemical Inventory and Spatial Mapping of Ices in the Protostar HOPS370 -- Evidence for an Opacity Hole and Thermal Processing of Ices

Himanshu Tyagi, Manoj P., Mayank Narang +35

The composition of protoplanetary disks, and hence the initial conditions of planet formation, may be strongly influenced by the infall and thermal processing of material during th…

JWST observations of CO ice: Tracing the chemical environment and thermal history of ices in protostellar envelopes

Nashanty G. C. Brunken, Will R. M. Rocha, Ewine F. van Dishoeck +38

The structure and composition of simple ices can be modified during stellar evolution by protostellar heating. Key to understanding the involved processes are thermal and chemical…

Discovery of a collimated jet from the low luminosity protostar IRAS 162532429 in a quiescent accretion phase with the JWST

Mayank Narang, Manoj P., Himanshu Tyagi +36

Investigating Protostellar Accretion (IPA) is a JWST Cycle~1 GO program that uses NIRSpec IFU and MIRI MRS to obtain 2.9--28~m spectral cubes of young, deeply embedded protostar…

300: An ACA 870 m Continuum Survey of Orion Protostars and their Evolution

Samuel Federman, S. Thomas Megeath, John J. Tobin +11

We present an 870 m continuum survey of 300 protostars from the Herschel Orion Protostar Survey using the Atacama Compact Array (ACA). These data measure protostellar flux densi…

Extension of HOPS Out to 500 ParSecs (eHOPS). I. Identification and Modeling of Protostars in the Aquila Molecular Clouds

Riwaj Pokhrel, S. Thomas Megeath, Robert A. Gutermuth +14

We present a Spitzer/Herschel focused survey of the Aquila molecular clouds (~pc) as part of the eHOPS (extension of HOPS Out to 500 ParSecs) census of nearby protostar…
