Gravity and rotation drag the magnetic field in high-mass star formation
H. Beuther, J. D. Soler, H. Linz +8
The formation of hot stars out of the cold interstellar medium lies at the heart of astrophysical research. Understanding the importance of magnetic fields during star formation re…
The CARMA-NRO Orion Survey: Core Emergence and Kinematics in the Orion A Cloud
Shuo Kong, Héctor G. Arce, Anneila I. Sargent +19
We have investigated the formation and kinematics of sub-mm continuum cores in the Orion A molecular cloud. A comparison between sub-mm continuum and near infrared extinction shows…
ALMA reveals sunburn: CO dissociation around AGB stars in the globular cluster 47 Tucanae
Iain McDonald, Albert A. Zijlstra, Eric Lagadec +15
ALMA observations show a non-detection of carbon monoxide around the four most luminous asymptotic giant branch (AGB) stars in the globular cluster 47 Tucanae. Stellar evolution mo…
Kinematic and Thermal Structure at the onset of high-mass star formation
S. Bihr, H. Beuther, H. Linz +6
We want to understand the kinematic and thermal properties of young massive gas clumps prior to and at the earliest evolutionary stages of high-mass star formation. Do we find sign…
Line Profiles of Cores within Clusters. III. What is the most reliable tracer of core collapse in dense clusters?
Roxana-Adela Chira, Rowan J. Smith, Ralf S. Klessen +2
Recent observational and theoretical investigations have emphasised the importance of filamentary networks within molecular clouds as sites of star formation. Since such environmen…
The Simultaneous Formation of Massive Stars and Stellar Clusters
Rowan J. Smith, Steven Longmore, Ian Bonnell
We show that massive stars and stellar clusters are formed simultaneously, the global evolution of the forming cluster is what allows the central stars to become massive. We predic…
