Torsionally excited methanol in massive young stellar objects: The role of the mid-IR radiation field
C. Sanna, S. Leurini, A. Giannetti +9
Observing the earliest stages of high-mass star formation in the mid-infrared (mid-IR) is challenging because the extinction is high and the resolution limited. Millimeter vibratio…
Seven-year periodic variations in the methanol maser line displayed by the massive protostar IRAS 20216+4104
M. Szymczak, M. Durjasz, S. Goedhart +5
Aims: We report the discovery and analysis of a periodic methanol maser in the massive protostar IRAS 20216+4104. Methods: To obtain the light curve, we used the 6.7 GHz methanol m…
NIR spectroscopic survey of protostellar jets in the star forming region IC 1396N
Fabrizio Massi, Rosario López, Maria T. Beltrán +2
Abridged. The bright-rimmed cloud IC1396N hosts CO, H, and Herbig-Haro outflows powered by millimetre compact sources. We aim to characterise the kinematics and physical condit…
A possible far-ultraviolet flux-dependent core mass function in NGC 6357
J. Brand, A. Giannetti, F. Massi +2
To derive the properties of the dense cores in the galactic star-forming complex NGC6357 and to investigate the effects of an intense far-UV radiation field on their properties, we…
Multi-scale view of star formation in IRAS 21078+5211: From clump fragmentation to disk wind
L. Moscadelli, H. Beuther, A. Ahmadi +23
In the massive star-forming region IRAS 21078+5211, a highly fragmented cluster (0.1~pc in size) of molecular cores is observed, located at the density peak of an elongated (1~pc i…
GIANO-TNG spectroscopy of red supergiants in the young star cluster RSGC2
L. Origlia, E. Oliva, R. Maiolino +19
The inner disk of the Galaxy has a number of young star clusters dominated by red supergiants that are heavily obscured by dust extinction and observable only at infrared wavelengt…
