FAUST XXX: Dust enhancement in the young binary L1551 IRS 5
Nicolás Cuello, Eleonora Bianchi, François Ménard +17
Young binary stars with discs provide unique laboratories to study the earliest stages of planet formation in star-forming environments. The detection of substructure in discs arou…
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 XXVII: The circumbinary disk and the outflow of the L 1551 IRS 5 binary system
Aurora Durán, Laurent Loinard, Pedro R. Rivera-Ortiz +21
Using continuum and line data obtained from the large ALMA program FAUST, we studied the structure of the protostellar binary system L1551 IRS5 at sc…
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 (…
