An Eccentric Massive Protobinary Assembled via a Core-merger Parabolic Encounter
Yao Wang, Yichen Zhang, Rubén Fedriani +14
Most massive stars form in binary systems, which profoundly influence their subsequent evolution. However, how such systems form remains poorly understood, with several competing s…
Dust Seeding Molecules in a Massive Protostar -- Detection of TiO in Orion Source I
Ziwei E. Zhang, Nami Sakai, Marcelino Agundez +16
We report the first detection of TiO in star-forming regions based on Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array observations of Orion Source I, a well-characterized massive prot…
Low-Metallicity Star Formation Survey in Sh2-284 (LZ-STAR): The Core Mass Function
Yu Cheng, Jonathan C. Tan, Morten Andersen +4
We present an ALMA 1.3~mm dust continuum study of the dense core mass function (CMF) in Sh2-284, a low metallicity outer Galaxy star-forming complex with --.…
The Core Mass Function Across Galactic Environments. IV. The Galactic Center
Alva V. I. Kinman, Maya A. Petkova, Jonathan C. Tan +2
The origin of the stellar Initial Mass Function (IMF) and how it may vary with galactic environment is a matter of debate. Certain star formation theories involve a close connectio…
GMC Collisions As Triggers of Star Formation. VIII. The Core Mass Function
Chia-Jung Hsu, Jonathan C. Tan, Duncan Christie +2
Compression in giant molecular cloud (GMC) collisions is a promising mechanism to trigger formation of massive star clusters and OB associations. We simulate colliding and non-coll…
Disks and Outflows in the Intermediate-mass Star Forming Region NGC 2071 IR
Yu Cheng, John J. Tobin, Yao-Lun Yang +13
We present ALMA band 6/7 (1.3 mm/0.87 mm) and VLA Ka band (9 mm) observations toward NGC 2071 IR, an intermediate-mass star forming region. We characterize the continuum and associ…
Surveys of Clumps, Cores, and Condensations in the Cygnus X: II. Radio Properties of the Massive Dense Cores
Yuwei Wang, Keping Qiu, Yue Cao +3
We have carried out a high-sensitivity and high-resolution radio continuum study towards a sample of 47 massive dense cores (MDCs) in the Cygnus X star-forming complex using the Ka…
