The ALMA-QUARKS survey: Investigating Thermal Feedback of Massive Protostars in Hot Molecular Cores
Dezhao Meng, Tie Liu, Jarken Esimbek +33
We identify a sample of 83 spatially resolved hot molecular cores (HMCs) in the QUARKS survey, aiming at investigating thermal feedback from massive stars. Using CHCN\,(12--11)…
Radio Continuum and Water Maser Monitoring of the Outburst in HOPS 373: Free-Free Emission Does Not Respond to the Outburst
John Tobin, Doug Johnstone, Greg Herczeg +5
We present VLA C-band (5~cm) continuum, K-band (1.3~cm) continuum, and water maser (22.235 GHz) monitoring of the protostar HOPS-373. We additionally present the contemporaneous mo…
The long-term outburst(s) of GPSV16: from an intermediate to a FUor classification
Carlos Contreras Peña, Jeong-Eun Lee, Philip W. Lucas +8
FU Ori outbursts are thought to play a key role in stellar mass assembly and in the chemistry of protoplanetary disks during the early formation of stars. However, uncertainties re…
Early Planet Formation in Embedded Disks (eDisk). XIX. Structures of molecular outflows
Anton Feeney-Johansson, Yuri Aikawa, Shigehisa Takakuwa +13
As part of the ALMA Large Program "Early Planet Formation in Embedded Disks" (eDisk), 12CO (2 - 1) was observed towards 19 nearby low-mass protostars. Of these objects, 15 sources…
Direct evidence for magnetohydrodynamic disk winds driving rotating outflows in protostar HOPS 358
Chul-Hwan Kim, Jeong-Eun Lee, Doug Johnstone +4
Angular momentum removal is a fundamental requirement for star and planet formation, yet the mechanisms driving this process remain debated. Magnetohydrodynamic disk winds, launche…
EPISODE III: The Nested Jet/Outflow Morphology of EC 53 Revealed by JWST and ALMA
Seonjae Lee, Jeong-Eun Lee, Chul-Hwan Kim +8
We present an extensive study of the structure and kinematics of the jet and outflow of EC 53, a Class I protostar with a quasi-periodic variability, using combined James Webb Spac…
