Probing the initial conditions of high-mass star formation -- IV. Gas dynamics and NHD chemistry in high-mass precluster and protocluster clumps
Chuan-Peng Zhang, Guang-Xing Li, Thushara Pillai +4
The initial stage of star formation is a complex area study because of its high density and low temperature. Under such conditions, many molecules become depleted from the gas phas…
Probing the initial conditions of high-mass star formation. III. Fragmentation and triggered star formation
Chuan-Peng Zhang, Timea Csengeri, Friedrich Wyrowski +6
Massive clumps tend to fragment into clusters of cores and condensations, some of which form high-mass stars. In this work, we study the structure of massive clumps at different sc…
Probing the initial conditions of high-mass star formation. II. Fragmentation, stability, and chemistry
T. Pillai, J. Kauffmann, F. Wyrowski +3
We present a new high-resolution study of pre-protocluster regions in tracers exclusively probing the coldest and dense gas (NH_2D). The data are used to constrain the chemical, th…
