First detection of HS in a protoplanetary disk. The dense GG Tau A ring

N. T. Phuong, E. Chapillon, L. Majumdar +8

Studying molecular species in protoplanetary disks is very useful to characterize the properties of these objects, which are the site of planet formation. We attempt to constrain t…

How do stars gain their mass? A JCMT/SCUBA-2 Transient Survey of Protostars in Nearby Star Forming Regions

Gregory J. Herczeg, Doug Johnstone, Steve Mairs +55

Most protostars have luminosities that are fainter than expected from steady accretion over the protostellar lifetime. The solution to this problem may lie in episodic mass accreti…

1000 AU Exterior Arcs Connected to the Protoplanetary Disk around HL Tau

Hsi-Wei Yen, Shigehisa Takakuwa, You-Hua Chu +13

The protoplanetary disk around HL Tau is so far the youngest candidate of planet formation, and it is still embedded in a protostellar envelope with a size of thousands of au. In t…

Magnetized converging flows towards the hot core in the intermediate/high-mass star-forming region NGC 6334 V

Carmen Juárez, Josep M. Girart, Manuel Zamora-Avilés +7

We present Submillimeter Array (SMA) observations at 345 GHz towards the intermediate/high-mass cluster-forming region NGC 6334 V. From the dust emission we spatially resolve three…
