From Clumps to Cores to Protostars: The JCMT Gould Belt Survey's "First-Look" analysis of Southern Orion A using SCUBA-2
Steve Mairs, Doug Johnstone, Helen Kirk
We present a subset of the James Clerk Maxwell Telescope Gould Belt Survey's "first-look" results of the southern extent of the Orion A molecular cloud. Employing a two-step struct…
The JCMT Transient Survey: Identifying Submillimetre Continuum Variability over Several Year Timescales Using Archival JCMT Gould Belt Survey Observations
Steve Mairs, Doug Johnstone, Helen Kirk +19
Investigating variability at the earliest stages of low-mass star formation is fundamental in understanding how a protostar assembles mass. While many simulations of protostellar d…
The JCMT Transient Survey: Detection of sub-mm variability in a Class I protostar EC 53 in Serpens Main
Hyunju Yoo, Jeong-Eun Lee, Steve Mairs +6
During the protostellar phase of stellar evolution, accretion onto the star is expected to be variable, but this suspected variability has been difficult to detect because protosta…
How do stars gain their mass? A JCMT/SCUBA-2 Transient Survey of Protostars in Nearby Star Forming Regions
Gregory J. Herczeg, Doug Johnstone, Steve Mairs +55
Most protostars have luminosities that are fainter than expected from steady accretion over the protostellar lifetime. The solution to this problem may lie in episodic mass accreti…
The JCMT Transient Survey: Data Reduction and Calibration Methods
Steve Mairs, James Lane, Doug Johnstone +7
Though there has been a significant amount of work investigating the early stages of low-mass star formation in recent years, the evolution of the mass assembly rate onto the centr…
First results from BISTRO -- a SCUBA-2 polarimeter survey of the Gould Belt
Derek Ward-Thompson, Kate Pattle, Pierre Bastien +111
We present the first results from the B-fields In STar-forming Region Observations (BISTRO) survey, using the Sub-millimetre Common-User Bolometer Array 2 (SCUBA-2) camera, with it…
ALMA Observations of Starless Core Substructure in Ophiuchus
Helen Kirk, Michael M. Dunham, James Di Francesco +11
Compact substructure is expected to arise in a starless core as mass becomes concentrated in the central region likely to form a protostar. Additionally, multiple peaks may form if…
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…
