Early Planet Formation in Embedded Disks (eDisk). XXIV: Systematic Investigation of Disk Structures based on Visibility Analysis
Mayank Narang, Jerry Xu, Leslie W. Looney +11
The dust continuum emission from young protostellar disks encodes key information about their mass distribution and early evolution, yet uniform high-resolution comparative studies…
Early Planet Formation in Embedded Disks (eDisk). XIX. Structures of molecular outflows
Anton Feeney-Johansson, Yuri Aikawa, Shigehisa Takakuwa +13
As part of the ALMA Large Program "Early Planet Formation in Embedded Disks" (eDisk), 12CO (2 - 1) was observed towards 19 nearby low-mass protostars. Of these objects, 15 sources…
HOPS-288: A Laboratory for Complex Organics in Proto-multiple Systems
Shih-Ying Hsu, Nadia M. Murillo, Chin-Fei Lee +21
Complex organic molecules (COMs) in young stellar objects (YSOs) have attracted significant attention in recent years due to their potential connection to pre-biotic chemistry and…
A Bridge between Young Stars Formed by Gravitational Interaction
Youngwoo Choi, Woojin Kwon, Leslie W. Looney +1
The majority of stars are born in clustered environments. In these environments, close encounters between young stars with planet-forming disks are expected to occur frequently. Ho…
Multi-band ALMA Polarization Observations of BHB07-11 Reveal Aligned Dust Grains in Complex Spiral Arm Structures
Austen Fourkas, Leslie W. Looney, Zhe-Yu Daniel Lin +8
Polarization-mode observations from the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) are powerful tools for studying the dust grain populations in circumstellar disks. Many…
The Hourglass-shaped Magnetic Fields and Dust Filaments in the HH 211 Protostellar Envelope
Youngwoo Choi, Woojin Kwon, Leslie W. Looney +4
Magnetic fields influence the structure and evolution of protostellar systems, thus understanding their role is essential for probing the earliest stages of star formation. We pres…
