The JCMT BISTRO Survey: The Magnetic Fields of the IC 348 Star-forming Region
Youngwoo Choi, Woojin Kwon, Kate Pattle +150
We present 850 m polarization observations of the IC 348 star-forming region in the Perseus molecular cloud as part of the B-fields In STar-forming Region Observation (BISTRO) s…
Super-Jeans fragmentation in massive star-forming regions revealed by triangulation analysis
Guang-Xing Li, Mengke Zhao, Xing Lu
Understanding the fragmentation of the gas cloud and the formation of massive stars remains one of the most challenging questions of modern astrophysical research. Either the gas f…
Magnetic Fields in Massive Star-forming Regions (MagMaR) IV: Tracing the Magnetic Fields in the O-type protostellar system IRAS 165474247
Luis A. Zapata, Manuel Fernández-López, Patricio Sanhueza +24
The formation of the massive stars, and in particular, the role that the magnetic fields play in their early evolutionary phase is still far from being completely understood. Here,…
The ALMA-QUARKS Survey: II. the ACA 1.3 mm continuum source catalog and the assembly of dense gas in massive star-forming clumps
Fengwei Xu, Ke Wang, Tie Liu +30
Leveraging the high resolution, high sensitivity, and wide frequency coverage of the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA), the QUARKS survey, standing for "Querying…
The ALMA-QUARKS survey: Detection of two extremely dense substructures in a massive prestellar core
Xiaofeng Mai, Tie Liu, Xunchuan Liu +32
Only a handful of massive starless core candidates have been discovered so far, but none of them have been fully confirmed. Within the MM1 clump in the filamentary infrared dark cl…
