ACES: The Magnetic Field in Large Filaments in the Galactic Center
Dylan M. Paré, Zi-Xuan Feng, Yue Hu +33
The Galactic Center (GC) is an extreme region of the Milky Way that is host to a complex set of thermal and non-thermal structures. In particular, the GC contains high-density gas…
Tails of Gravity: Persistence of Star Formation in the CMZ Environment
Linjing Feng, Sihan Jiao, Fengwei Xu +16
We characterize star-forming gas in six molecular clouds (Sgr B1-off, Sgr B2, Sgr C, the 20 km s and 50 km s molecular clouds, and the Brick) in the Galactic central…
Parallel Alignments between Magnetic Fields and Dense Structures in the Central Molecular Zone
Xing Pan, Qizhou Zhang, Keping Qiu +8
The recent Far-Infrared Polarimetric Large-Area Central Molecular Zone Exploration (FIREPLACE) survey with SOFIA has mapped plane-of-the-sky magnetic field orientations within the…
Dual-band Unified Exploration of Three CMZ Clouds (DUET). Cloud-wide census of continuum sources showing low spectral indices
Fengwei Xu, Xing Lu, Ke Wang +19
The Milky Way's Central Molecular Zone (CMZ) is measured to form stars 10 times less efficiently than in the Galactic disk, based on emission from high-mass stars. However, the CMZ…
Subclustering and Star Formation Efficiency in Three Protoclusters in the Central Molecular Zone
Suinan Zhang, Xing Lu, Adam Ginsburg +21
We present so far the highest resolution (0.04") ALMA 1.3 mm continuum observations of three massive star-forming clumps in the Central Molecular Zone, namely 20 km s…
Application of resolved low-J multi-CO line modeling with RADEX to constrain the molecular gas properties in the starburst M82
Valencia Zhang, Jakob den Brok, Qizhou Zhang +10
The distribution and physical conditions of molecular gas are closely linked to star formation and the subsequent evolution of galaxies. Emission from carbon monoxide (CO) and its…
ALMA observations of massive clouds in the central molecular zone: slim filaments tracing parsec-scale shocks
Kai Yang, Xing Lu, Yichen Zhang +22
The central molecular zone (CMZ) of our Galaxy exhibits widespread emission from SiO and various complex organic molecules (COMs), yet the exact origin of such emission is uncertai…
