A new tool to derive simultaneously exponent and extremes of power-law distributions

S. Pezzuto, A. Coletta, R. S. Klessen +6

Many experimental quantities show a power-law distribution . In astrophysics, examples are: size distribution of dust grains or luminosity function of galaxies.…

A comparison of the Milky Way's recent star formation revealed by dust thermal emission and high-mass stars

J. D. Soler, E. Zari, D. Elia +10

We present a comparison of the Milky Way's star formation rate (SFR) surface density () obtained with two independent state-of-the-art observational methods. The first…

SiO Outflows in the Most Luminous and Massive Protostellar Sources of the Southern Sky

N. Guerra-Varas, M. Merello, L. Bronfman +4

(Abridged) High-mass star formation is far less understood than low-mass star formation. It entails molecular outflows, which disturb the protostellar clump. Studying these outflow…

A panoptic view of the Taurus molecular cloud I. The cloud dynamics revealed by gas emission and 3D dust

J. D. Soler, C. Zucker, J. E. G. Peek +14

We present a study of the three-dimensional (3D) distribution of interstellar dust derived from stellar extinction observations toward the Taurus molecular cloud (MC) and its relat…

Probing the Global Dust Properties and Cluster Formation Potential of the Giant Molecular Cloud G148.24+00.41

Vineet Rawat, M. R. Samal, D. L. Walker +8

Clouds more massive than about M are potential sites of massive cluster formation. Studying the properties of such clouds in the early stages of their evolution offe…

The SQUALO project (Star formation in QUiescent And Luminous Objects) I: clump-fed accretion mechanism in high-mass star-forming objects

A. Traficante, B. M. Jones, A. Avison +10

The formation mechanism of the most massive stars is far from completely understood. It is still unclear if the formation is core-fed or clump-fed, i.e. if the process is an extens…
