Linear filament and nested cluster evolution tomography (LANCET) I. Capture the evolution of dense gas in 14-parsec filament G316.8
Fengwei Xu, Ke Wang, Nicola Schneider +12
A dynamic view of mass assembly is essential for understanding the formation of massive stars and clusters. Interpreting evolutionary diagnostics from Galactic-wide surveys, howeve…
Galactic Large-scale Filaments Resident in Asymmetric Environments: Clues from Cross-filament Profiles of Density and Temperature
Keyun Su, Ke Wang, Fengwei Xu +1
Large-scale filaments ubiquitously exist in the Galactic interstellar medium, and their radial profiles offer insights into their formation mechanisms. We present a statistical ana…
The Structure of an 80 pc Long Massive Filament
Qian-Ru He, Won-Ju Kim, Gary A. Fuller +11
Using new Institut de Radioastronomie Millimétrique (IRAM) 30m telescope , =1-0 and Atacama Pathfinder Experiment (APEX) telescope and $…
Dual-band Unified Exploration of Three CMZ Clouds (DUET). Cloud-wide census of continuum sources showing low spectral indices
Fengwei Xu, Xing Lu, Ke Wang +19
The Milky Way's Central Molecular Zone (CMZ) is measured to form stars 10 times less efficiently than in the Galactic disk, based on emission from high-mass stars. However, the CMZ…
