Massive 70 micron quiet clumps II: non-thermal motions driven by gravity in massive star formation?
A. Traficante, G. A. Fuller, R. J. Smith +5
The dynamic activity in massive star forming regions prior to the formation of bright protostars is still not fully investigated. In this work we present observations of HCO+ J=1-0…
The evolution of Giant Molecular Filaments
A. Duarte-Cabral, C. L. Dobbs
In recent years there has been a growing interest in studying giant molecular filaments (GMFs), which are extremely elongated (> 100pc in length) giant molecular clouds (GMCs). The…
Massive 70 micron quiet clumps I: evidence of embedded low/intermediate-mass star formation activity
A. Traficante, G. A. Fuller, N. Billot +5
Massive clumps, prior to the formation of any visible protostars, are the best candidates to search for the elusive massive starless cores. In this work we investigate the dust and…
Filamentary fragmentation in a turbulent medium
S. D. Clarke, A. P. Whitworth, A. Duarte-Cabral +1
We present the results of smoothed particle hydrodynamic simulations investigating the evolution and fragmentation of filaments that are accreting from a turbulent medium. We show…
ALMA survey of massive cluster progenitors from ATLASGAL. Limited fragmentation at the early evolutionary stage of massive clumps
T. Csengeri, S. Bontemps, F. Wyrowski +18
The early evolution of massive cluster progenitors is poorly understood. We investigate the fragmentation properties from 0.3 pc to 0.06 pc scales of a homogenous sample of infrare…
The JCMT Gould Belt Survey: A First Look at IC 5146
D. Johnstone, S. Ciccone, H. Kirk +53
We present 450 and 850 micron submillimetre continuum observations of the IC5146 star-forming region taken as part of the JCMT Gould Belt Survey. We investigate the location of bri…
