Unveiling a network of parallel filaments in the Infrared Dark Cloud G14.225-0.506
Gemma Busquet, Qizhou Zhang, Aina Palau +10
We present the results of combined NH3(1,1) and (2,2) line emission observed with the Very Large Array and the Effelsberg 100m telescope of the Infrared Dark Cloud G14.225-0.506. T…
Early stages of cluster formation: fragmentation of massive dense cores down to ~1000 AU
Aina Palau, Asunción Fuente, Josep M. Girart +11
In order to study the fragmentation of massive dense cores, which constitute the cluster cradles, we observed with the PdBI in the most extended configuration the continuum at 1.3…
The Protocluster G18.67+0.03: A Test Case for Class I Methanol Masers as Evolutionary Indicators for Massive Star Formation
C. J. Cyganowski, C. L. Brogan, T. R. Hunter +4
We present high angular resolution Submillimeter Array (SMA) and Karl G. Jansky Very Large Array (VLA) observations of the massive protocluster G18.67+0.03. Previously targeted in…
Forming an O Star via Disk Accretion?
Keping Qiu, Qizhou Zhang, Henrik Beuther +1
We present a study of outflow, infall, and rotation in a ~10^5 Lsun (solar luminosity) star-forming region, IRAS 18360-0537, with Submillimeter Array (SMA) and IRAM 30m observation…
H2D+ in the high mass star-forming Region Cygnus-X
Thushara Pillai, Paola Caselli, Jens Kauffmann +3
H2D+ is a primary ion which dominates the gas-phase chemistry of cold dense gas. Therefore it is hailed as a unique tool in probing the earliest, prestellar phase of star formation…
Dense gas in IRAS 20343+4129: an ultracompact HII region caught in the act of creating a cavity
F. Fontani, Aina Palau, G. Busquet +5
The intermediate- to high-mass star-forming region IRAS 20343+4129 is an excellent laboratory to study the influence of high- and intermediate-mass young stellar objects on nearby…
Temperature and kinematics of protoclusters with intermediate and high-mass stars: the case of IRAS 05345+3157
F. Fontani, P. Caselli, Q. Zhang +3
We have mapped at small spatial scales the temperature and the velocity field in the protocluster associated with IRAS 05345+3157, which contains both intermediate-/high-mass proto…
