Evidence of triggered star formation in the Pillars of Creation from JWST observations
Jing Wen, Bingqiu Chen, Jian Gao +3
Stars form in molecular clouds under the influence of their local environments, yet the role of massive stellar feedback in either triggering or suppressing star formation remains…
Radiative Compression of Dense Cores in the Pillars of Creation as Revealed by JWST Extinction Mapping
Jun Li, Bingqiu Chen, He Zhao +2
The Pillars of Creation in M16 represent an iconic star-forming region where stellar feedback shapes molecular cloud evolution. We present a detailed investigation of dust extincti…
Probing Obscured Star Formation in Galaxy Clusters Using JWST Medium Band Images: 3.3 PAH Emitter Sample in Abell 2744
Cheng Cheng, Xin Wang, Piaoran Liang +7
Star-forming galaxies in galaxy clusters play a crucial role in understanding the advanced stages of galaxy evolution within dense environments. We present a sample of 3.3m PAH…
A Study of Multiple Molecular Lines at the 3 mm Band toward Gas Infalling Sources
Yang Yang, Xi Chen, ZhiBo Jiang +3
The study of multiple molecular spectral lines in gas infalling sources can provide the physical and chemical properties of these sources and help us estimate their evolutionary st…
Distributions and Physical Properties of Molecular Clouds in the G24 Region of the Milky Way
Tian Yang, Xi Chen, Xiao-Yun Xu +5
We report the spatial distribution and physical characteristics of molecular clouds in the G24 region, which is located near the intersection of the Milky Way's Galactic bar with t…
