Investigations of MWISP Bubbles: Identification and Analysis of Enclosed Molecular Bubbles by Weight Fields
Yu Jiang, Xuepeng Chen, Ji Yang +7
Molecular bubbles are widely used as tracers of stellar feedback; yet, their identification in spectral-line surveys remains challenging because both cavity morphology and kinemati…
A pan-galaxy study of synthetic giant molecular filaments: a turbulence-dominated life cycle
Zipeng Hu, Ke Wang, Mark R. Krumholz +1
Recent surveys of the Galactic plane have revealed dozens of giant molecular filaments (GMFs), with lengths ranging from tens to hundreds of parsecs, yet their origins and life cyc…
The ALMA-QUARKS survey: Extensive detection of acetamide in multiple high-mass star-forming regions
Chunguo Duan, Xuefang Xu, Qian Gou +8
Acetamide (CHCONH), a key interstellar amide and a methyl derivative of formamide (NHCHO), has been sparsely detected, limiting insights into its prebiotic releva…
An ALMA Study of Molecular Complexity in the Hot Core G336.99-00.03 MM1
Chunguo Duan, Qian Gou, Tie Liu +9
High-mass star formation involves complex processes, with the hot core phase playing a crucial role in chemical enrichment and the formation of complex organic molecules. However,…
The ALMA-ATOMS Survey: Exploring Protostellar Outflows in HCN
Ariful Hoque, Tapas Baug, Lokesh K. Dewangan +25
We present the first systematic study of bipolar outflows using HCN as a tracer in a sample of 146 massive star-forming regions from ALMA-ATOMS survey. Protostellar outflows ar…
Evidence for Core-Core Collision in Barnard 68
Dalei Li, Christian Henkel, Alexander Kraus +10
The prestellar core Barnard 68 (B68) is a prototypical source to study the initial conditions and chemical processes of star formation. A previous numerical simulation suggested th…
