The DR21(OH) Trident -- Resolving the Massive Ridge into Three Entangled Fibers As the Initial Condition of Cluster Formation

Yue Cao, Keping Qiu, Qizhou Zhang +1

DR21(OH) ridge, the central part of a high-mass star and cluster forming hub-filament system, is resolved spatially and kinematically into three nearly parallel fibers (f1, f2, and…

Kinematics of the molecular interstellar medium probed by Gaia: steep velocity dispersion-size relation, isotropic turbulence, and location-dependent energy dissipation

Ji-Xuan Zhou, Guang-Xing Li, Bing-Qiu Chen

The evolution of the molecular interstellar medium is controlled by processes such as turbulence, gravity, stellar feedback, and Galactic shear. AL a part of the ISM-6D https://gxl…

Network of Star Formation: Fragmentation controlled by scale-dependent turbulent pressure and accretion onto the massive cores revealed in the Cygnus-X GMC complex

Guang-Xing Li, Yue Cao, Keping Qiu

Molecular clouds have complex density structures produced by processes including turbulence and gravity. We propose a triangulation-based method to dissect the density structure of…

Evolutions of CHCN abundance in molecular clumps

Zhen-Zhen He, Guang-Xing Li, Chao Zhang

To investigate the effects of massive star evolution on surrounding molecules, we select 9 massive clumps previously observed with the Atacama Pathfinder Experiment (APEX) telescop…

Radio Recombination Line Observations at GHz with FAST

Chuan-Peng Zhang, Jin-Long Xu, Guang-Xing Li +3

HII regions made of gas ionized by radiations from young massive stars, are widely distributed in the Milky Way. They are tracers for star formation, and their distributions are co…

Molecular contrails -- triggered contraction by passages of massive objects through molecular clouds

Guang-Xing Li, Xun Shi

We study the effects of passages of compact objects such as stars, star clusters, and black holes through molecular clouds, and propose that the gravitational interaction between t…
