Towards a better understanding of ice mantle desorption by cosmic rays
Jonathan M. C. Rawlings
The standard model of cosmic ray heating-induced desorption of interstellar ices is based on a continuous representation of the sporadic desorption of ice mantle components from cl…
VLA cm-wave survey of young stellar objects in the Oph A cluster: constraining extreme UV- and X-ray-driven disk photo-evaporation -- A pathfinder for Square Kilometre Array studies
A. Coutens, H. B. Liu, I. Jiménez-Serra +28
Observations of young stellar objects (YSOs) in centimeter bands can probe the continuum emission from growing dust grains, ionized winds, and magnetospheric activity, which are in…
Gravitational instabilities in a protosolar-like disc III: molecular line detection and sensitivities
M. G. Evans, T. W. Hartquist, P. Caselli +3
At the time of formation, protoplanetary discs likely contain a comparable mass to their host protostars. As a result, gravitational instabilities (GIs) are expected to play a pivo…
Chemical modelling of glycolaldehyde and ethylene glycol in star-forming regions
A. Coutens, S. Viti, J. M. C. Rawlings +5
Glycolaldehyde (HOCHCHO) and ethylene glycol ((CHOH)) are two complex organic molecules detected in the hot cores and hot corinos of several star-forming regions. The e…
The chemistry of protoplanetary fragments formed via gravitational instabilities
J. D. Ilee, D. H. Forgan, M. G. Evans +8
In this paper, we model the chemical evolution of a 0.25 M protoplanetary disc surrounding a 1 M star that undergoes fragmentation due to self-gravity. We use S…
Gravitational instabilities in a protosolar-like disc II: continuum emission and mass estimates
M. G. Evans, J. D. Ilee, T. W. Hartquist +6
Gravitational instabilities (GIs) are most likely a fundamental process during the early stages of protoplanetary disc formation. Recently, there have been detections of spiral fea…
The JCMT Gould Belt Survey: A First Look at Dense Cores in Orion B
H. Kirk, J. Di Francesco, D. Johnstone +54
We present a first look at the SCUBA-2 observations of three sub-regions of the Orion B molecular cloud: LDN 1622, NGC 2023/2024, and NGC 2068/2071, from the JCMT Gould Belt Legacy…
The JCMT Gould Belt Survey: Evidence for radiative heating in Serpens MWC 297 and its influence on local star formation
D. Rumble, J. Hatchell, R. A. Gutermuth +61
We present SCUBA-2 450micron and 850micron observations of the Serpens MWC 297 region, part of the JCMT Gould Belt Survey of nearby star-forming regions. Simulations suggest that r…
The dynamics of collapsing cores and star formation
Eric Keto, Paola Caselli, Jonathan Rawlings
Low-mass stars are generally understood to form by the gravitational collapse of the dense molecular clouds known as starless cores. Continuum observations have not been able to di…
Simulated Observations of Young Gravitationally Unstable Protoplanetary Discs
T. A. Douglas, P. Caselli, J. D. Ilee +4
The formation and earliest stages of protoplanetary discs remain poorly constrained by observations. ALMA will soon revolutionise this field. Therefore, it is important to provide…
Investigating the effects of chemistry on molecular line profiles of infalling low mass cores
Julia F. Roberts, Hugh A. W. Stace, Jonathan M. C. Rawlings
We have coupled a chemical model with two dynamical models of collapsing low mass star-forming cores to predict abundances across the core of the commonly used infall tracers, CS a…
