ALMAGAL VII. Cataloging Hierarchical Mass Structure from Cores to Clumps across the Galactic Disk

Jennifer Wallace, Taevis Kolz, Cara Battersby +42

Investigating the multi-scale fragmentation of dense clumps into compact cores is essential for understanding the processes that govern the initial distribution of mass in stellar…

Hyper-py: HYbrid Photometry and Extraction Routine in PYthon

Alessio Traficante, Fabrizio De Angelis, Alice Nucara +1

We present Hyper-Py, a fully restructured and extended Python implementation of HYPER (HYbrid Photometry and Extraction Routine, Traficante et al. 2015). HYPER was originally imple…

The Rosetta Stone Project. II. The correlation between star formation efficiency and L/M indicator for the evolutionary stages of star-forming clumps in post-processed radiative magnetohydrodynamics simulations

Ngo-Duy Tung, Alessio Traficante, Ugo Lebreuilly +13

Context. The evolution of massive star-forming clumps that are progenitors of high-mass young stellar objects are often classified based on a variety of observational indicators ra…

The Rosetta Stone Project. I. A suite of radiative magnetohydrodynamics simulations of high-mass star-forming clumps

Ugo Lebreuilly, Alessio Traficante, Alice Nucara +14

Context. Star formation and, in particular, high-mass star formation are key astrophysical processes that are far from being fully understood. Unfortunately, progress in these fiel…

The Rosetta Stone project. III. ALMA synthetic observations of fragmentation in high-mass star-forming clumps

Alice Nucara, Alessio Traficante, Ugo Lebreuilly +23

The physical mechanisms that regulate the collapse of high-mass parsec-scale clumps and allow them to form clusters of new stars represent a crucial aspect of star formation. To in…

PRIMAGAL: a PRIMAger Galactic Plane Far-IR polarization survey to quantify the magnetic fields' role in the formation and evolution of large star-forming filaments

S. Molinari, J. D. Soler, V. -M. Pelkonen +8

The PRIMAger instrument on board the proposed PRIMA satellite will offer the unprecedented capability to obtain hundreds of square-degree maps in polarised emission at sub-arcminut…
