A homogeneous three-dimensional view of Molecular Cloud kinematics out to 2.5 kpc. Using Young Stellar Objects and Open Clusters as complementary tracers
Xabier Pérez-Couto, Santiago Torres, Nuria Miret-Roig +4
Understanding the large-scale dynamics of molecular clouds (MCs) is crucial for constraining the processes that govern star formation and the structure and evolution of the Galaxy.…
The evolution of velocity dispersion in the Sco-Cen OB association
Josefa E. GroÃschedl, João Alves, Sebastian Ratzenböck +4
We study how the stellar velocity dispersion within the Scorpius-Centaurus OB association (Sco-Cen) has evolved over approximately 20 million years, from its formation to the prese…
Re-visiting the Canis Major star-forming region with Gaia data release 3 data
S. Nogueira-Silva, P. A. B. Galli, J. Olivares +7
Context: The Canis Major (CMa) star-forming region, a remote molecular cloud complex within the recently discovered Radcliffe Wave, remains under-explored in the literature. Aims:…
Multiplicity of young isolated planetary mass objects in Taurus and Upper Scorpius
H. Bouy, G. Duchêne, G. Strampelli +12
Free-floating planetary mass objects--worlds that roam interstellar space untethered to a parent star--challenge conventional notions of planetary formation and migration, but also…
The internal kinematics of local young stellar associations. Identifying correlations among age, expansion, rotation, and shear
J. Olivares, N. Miret-Roig, P. A. B. Galli
Context. The local (<200 pc away) young (<50 Myr old) stellar associations (LYSA) provide fundamental evidence for the study of the star formation process in the local neighbourhoo…
Why the Northern Hemisphere Needs a 30-40 m Telescope and the Science at Stake. How do Planetary Systems Form?
I. MendigutÃa, N. Huélamo, I. Jiménez-Serra +32
The detection and characterization of protoplanets in protoplanetary disks around young stars is emerging as a transformative field that will redefine our understanding of how plan…
