Characterizing the physical and chemical properties of the Class I protostellar system Oph-IRS 44. Binarity, infalling streamers, and accretion shocks
E. Artur de la Villarmois, V. V. Guzmán, M. L. van Gelder +5
(Abridged) In the low-mass star formation process, theoretical models predict that material from the infalling envelope could be shocked as it encounters the outer regions of the d…
FAUST. XXVIII. High-Resolution ALMA Observations of Class 0/I Disks: Structure, Optical Depths, and Temperatures
M. J. Maureira, J. E. Pineda, H. B. Liu +22
We present high-resolution (~7.5 au) ALMA observations at 1.3 and 3 mm of 16 disks around Class 0/I protostars across multiple star-forming regions and a variety of multiplicities,…
The factors that influence protostellar multiplicity II. Gas temperature and mass in Perseus with APEX
N. M. Murillo, C. M. Fuchs, D. Harsono +5
Protostellar multiplicity is a common outcome of the star formation process. To fully understand the formation and evolution of these systems, the physical parameters of the molecu…
FAUST XXVI. The dust opacity spectral indices of protostellar envelopes bridge the gap between interstellar medium and disks
Luca Cacciapuoti, L. Testi, A. J. Maury +36
The sub-millimetre dust opacity spectral index is a critical observable to constrain dust properties, such as the maximum grain size of an observed dust population. It has been wid…
FAUST XXIV. Large dust grains in the protostellar outflow cavity walls of the Class I binary L1551 IRS5
G. Sabatini, E. Bianchi, C. J. Chandler +19
Planet formation around young stars requires the growth of interstellar dust grains from mm-sized particles to km-sized planetesimals. Numerical simulations have shown that large (…
FAUST XXV. A potential new molecular outflow in [BHB2007] 11
A. MartÃnez-Henares, I. Jiménez-Serra, C. Vastel +26
During the early stages of star formation, accretion processes such as infall from the envelope and molecular streamers, and ejection of matter through winds and jets take place si…
