The JCMT Gould Belt Survey: Evidence for Dust Grain Evolution in Perseus Star-forming Clumps

Michael Chun-Yuan Chen, J. Di Francesco, D. Johnstone +56

The dust emissivity spectral index, , is a critical parameter for deriving the mass and temperature of star-forming structures, and consequently their gravitational stability. T…
