The TOP-SCOPE Survey of Planck Galactic Cold Clumps: Molecular gas properties
Yuebin Yang, Jarken Esimbek, Tie Liu +11
We surveyed 2008 Planck Galactic Cold Clumps (PGCCs) in and --0 lines using the Taeduk Radio Astronomy Observatory (TRAO) 14 m telescope'…
The ALMA-QUARKS Survey: Properties of Hot Molecular Fragments in the Massive Protocluster IRAS 17233-3606
Li Chen, Sheng-Li Qin, Dongting Yang +29
To investigate the physical mechanisms of fragmentation within the hot molecular core of the massive protocluster IRAS 17233-3606 (G351.78-0.54), we carried out a detailed analysis…
The ALMA-QUARKS Survey: Discovery of Dusty Fibrils inside Massive Star-forming Clumps
Yan-Kun Zhang, Tie Liu, Wenyu Jiao +35
We report the discovery of more than 323 superfine dusty filamentary structures (fibrils) inside 121 massive star forming clumps that are located in widely different Galactic envir…
The ALMA-ATOMS survey: Methanol emission in a large sample of hot molecular cores
Jiahang Zou, Tie Liu, Sheng-Li Qin +26
Methanol (CHOH) is a key complex organic molecule (COM) in the interstellar medium, widely used as a tracer of dense gas and hot molecular cores (HMCs). Using high-resolution…
ALMA-QUARKS: Few-Thousand-Year Hatching out of "Egg": The Supersonic Breakout of a Hypercompact H II Region from Its Parental Hot Core
Siju Zhang, Guido Garay, Fengwei Xu +19
The kinematic evolution of hypercompact H II (HC H II) regions around young high-mass stars remains poorly understood due to complex interactions with parental environs. We present…
The ALMA-QUARKS survey: Hot Molecular Cores are a long-standing phenomenon in the evolution of massive protostars
Dezhao Meng, Tie Liu, Jarken Esimbek +34
We present an analysis of the QUARKS survey sample, focusing on protoclusters where Hot Molecular Cores (HMCs, traced by CH3CN(12--11)) and UC HII regions (traced by H30α/H40α) c…
