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…
The SOFIA Massive (SOMA) Radio Survey. III. Radio Emission from Intermediate-Mass Protostars
Francisco Sequeira-Murillo, Viviana Rosero, Joshua Marvil +6
We present results from Very Large Array (VLA) radio continuum observations of twelve intermediate-mass (IM) protostars, as part of the SOFIA Massive Star Formation Survey. Using t…
Deep JWST/NIRCam imaging of Supernova 1987A
Mikako Matsuura, M. Boyer, Richard G. Arendt +46
JWST/NIRCam obtained high angular-resolution (0.05-0.1''), deep near-infrared 1--5 micron imaging of Supernova (SN) 1987A taken 35 years after the explosion. In the NIRCam images,…
The Inner 25 AU Debris Distribution in the epsilon Eri System
Kate Y. L. Su, James M. De Buizer, George H. Rieke +6
Debris disk morphology is wavelength dependent due to the wide range of particle sizes and size-dependent dynamics influenced by various forces. Resolved images of nearby debris di…
SOFIA/FORCAST and Spitzer/IRAC Imaging of the Ultra Compact H II Region W3(OH) and Associated Protostars in W3
Lea Hirsch, Joseph D. Adams, Terry L. Herter +8
We present infrared observations of the ultra-compact H II region W3(OH) made by the FORCAST instrument aboard SOFIA and by Spitzer/IRAC. We contribute new wavelength data to the s…
Testing the Hypothesis that Methanol Maser Rings Trace Circumstellar Disks: High Resolution Near-IR and Mid-IR Imaging
James M. De Buizer, Anna Bartkiewicz, Marian Szymczak
Milliarcsecond VLBI maps of regions containing 6.7 GHz methanol maser emission have lead to the recent discovery of ring-like distributions of maser spots and the plausible hypothe…
First Science Observations with SOFIA/FORCAST: 6 TO 37 micron Imaging of Orion BN/KL
James M. De Buizer, Mark R. Morris, E. E. Becklin +5
The BN/KL region of the Orion Nebula is the nearest region of high mass star formation in our galaxy. As such, it has been the subject of intense investigation at a variety of wave…
First Science Results From SOFIA/FORCAST: Super-Resolution Imaging of the S140 Cluster at 37\micron
Paul M. Harvey, Joseph D. Adams, Terry L. Herter +7
We present 37\micron\ imaging of the S140 complex of infrared sources centered on IRS1 made with the FORCAST camera on SOFIA. These observations are the longest wavelength imaging…
Direct Spectroscopic Identification of the Origin of 'Green Fuzzy' Emission in Star Forming Regions
James M. De Buizer, William D. Vacca
"Green fuzzies" or "extended green objects" were discovered in the recent Spitzer GLIMPSE survey data. These extended sources have enhanced emission in the 4.5um IRAC channel image…
