The Importance of the Magnetic Field from an SMA-CSO-Combined Sample of Star-Forming Regions
Patrick M. Koch, Ya-Wen Tang, Paul T. P. Ho +14
Submillimeter dust polarization measurements of a sample of 50 star-forming regions, observed with the SMA and the CSO covering pc-scale clouds to mpc-scale cores, are analyzed in…
Submillimeter Array Observations of Magnetic Fields in G240.31+0.07: an Hourglass in a Massive Cluster-forming Core
Keping Qiu, Qizhou Zhang, Karl M. Menten +3
We report the first detection of an hourglass magnetic field aligned with a well-defined outflow-rotation system in a high-mass star-forming region. The observations were performed…
Magnetic Fields and Massive Star Formation
Qizhou Zhang, Keping Qiu, Josep M. Girart +17
Massive stars ( \msun) typically form in parsec-scale molecular clumps that collapse and fragment, leading to the birth of a cluster of stellar objects. We investigate the r…
VLA observations of ammonia in high-mass star formation regions
Xing Lu, Qizhou Zhang, Hauyu Baobab Liu +2
We report systematic mapping observations of the NH (1,1) and (2,2) inversion lines towards 62 high-mass star-forming regions using VLA in its D and DnC array configurations.…
ALMA Results of the Pseudodisk, Rotating disk, and Jet in Continuum and HCO+ in the Protostellar System HH 212
Chin-Fei Lee, Naomi Hirano, Qizhou Zhang +3
HH 212 is a nearby (400 pc) Class 0 protostellar system showing several components that can be compared with theoretical models of core collapse. We have mapped it in 350 GHz conti…
A sub-arcsecond study of the hot molecular core in G023.01-00.41
A. Sanna, R. Cesaroni, L. Moscadelli +5
(Abridged) METHODS: We performed SMA observations at 1.3 mm with both the most extended and compact array configurations, providing sub-arcsecond and high sensitivity maps of vario…
Hierarchical fragmentation and differential star formation in the Galactic "Snake": infrared dark cloud G11.11-0.12
Ke Wang, Qizhou Zhang, Leonardo Testi +8
We present Submillimeter Array (SMA) 0.88 and 1.3 mm broad band observations, and the Jansky Very Large Array (VLA) observations in up to ,…
Fragmentation of massive dense cores down to ~1000 AU: Relation between fragmentation and density structure
Aina Palau, R. Estalella, J. M. Girart +10
In order to shed light on the main physical processes controlling fragmentation of massive dense cores, we present a uniform study of the density structure of 19 massive dense core…
Star Cluster Formation and Feedback
Mark R. Krumholz, Matthew R. Bate, Hector G. Arce +6
Stars do not generally form in isolation. Instead, they form in clusters, and in these clustered environments newborn stars can have profound effects on one another and on their pa…
