Identifying the principal mechanism of star formation feedback
Chong Li, Rouyu Li, Keping Qiu +27
Feedback from massive stars regulates the formation of next-generation stars and planets and thus shapes the evolution of galaxies, yet observational evidence capable of determinin…
ALOHA IRDCs Molecular Line Follow-up: I. Gas properties and kinematics
Jinjin Xie, Yaoting Yan, Zhiyuan Ren +109
Infrared Dark Clouds are ideal sites for investigating the initial conditions of massive star and cluster formation. The A Lei Of the Habitat and Assembly of Infrared Dark Clouds (…
CARPP: Parametric Radiative-Transfer Fitting of Molecular Cores from Dust Continuum Data
Yuchen Xing, Di Li, Nannan Yue +5
The density profiles of dense molecular cores are important indicators of their physical and evolutionary states. Multi-wavelength dust continuum data offers excellent constraints…
A tool of Hierarchical cOre ideNtification and Kinematic property AssIgnment (HONKAI) for Dense Cores
Jiawei Liu, Zhiyuan Ren, Di Li +8
Infrared dark clouds (IRDCs) contains cold dense gas at the earliest stage of massive star and cluster formation. In studying the IRDCs, a universal and fundamental task is to reso…
Experimental study of the first telescope with a toroidal curved detector
Eduard Muslimov, Simona Lombardo, Thibault Behaghel +2
We describe a practical implementation of the anamorphically curved detector concept. In order to demonstrate its advantages, a telescope lab prototype was developed, built, and te…
