Star Formation across the Galaxy
Alvaro Sanchez-Monge, Henrik Beuther, Maryvonne Gerin +41
Star formation is both a multi-scale and highly dynamic process. It is regulated by the combination of gravity, turbulence, feedback and magnetic fields, which connect more than si…
Magnetic Fields in Massive Star-forming Regions (MagMaR). IX. Radiative Torque Alignment and Disruption in NGC6334I
Vineet Rawat, Thiem Hoang, Patricio Sanhueza +18
Intense radiation from high-mass stars is expected to significantly affect dust grain alignment and evolution through RAdiative Torques (RATs). We investigate this effect in a mass…
Magnetic fields in Massive Star-Forming Regions (MagMaR). VIII. Magnetic field overrun by gravity in GGD 27's accretion streamers
M. Fernández-López, J. A. López-Vázquez, J. M. Girart +20
Context. Accretion streamers connected to protostellar disks and/or envelopes are thought to transport material across several thousand of au. Whether the motions of the gas compri…
Magnetic Fields in Massive Star-forming Regions (MagMaR). VII. On the dynamical importance of B-fields in massive protocluster W33 A
Fengwei Xu, Q. Zhang, P. Sanhueza +30
Magnetic fields (B-fields) are likely important in massive protocluster formation, but their role remains poorly constrained. We present 1.2 mm ALMA full-polarization observations…
The Keplerian disk, envelope, and streamers surrounding an early O-type protostar in the Sagittarius C cloud of the Central Molecular Zone
Jixiang Weng, Xing Lu, Yu Cheng +22
Disk-mediated accretion is central to theories of massive star formation, setting the initial conditions for their evolution. Yet observations of Keplerian disks around early O-typ…
ALMA-IMF XXII. Role of core subfragmentation in the IMF origin: Hierarchical fragmentation cascade and CMF in W43-MM1
F. Motte, N. Le Nestour, R. Veyry +29
We aim to predict how the currently observed top-heavy CMF in the massive protocluster W43-MM1 evolves due to core subfragmentation. We used getsf to extract sources in 5 ALMA imag…
The dominance of turbulence over magnetism in the formation of massive star cluster seeds
Junhao Liu, Patricio Sanhueza, Piyali Saha +32
High-mass stars form in protoclusters, where gravo-magnetic processes shape collapsing clouds and clumps to be elongated preferentially perpendicular to magnetic (B) fields. Yet it…
Digging into the Interior of Hot Cores with ALMA (DIHCA). VII. Disk candidates around high-mass stars and evidence of anisotropic infall
Fernando A. Olguin, Patricio Sanhueza, Yoko Oya +19
We study the kinematics of condensations in 30 fields forming high-mass stars with ALMA at a high-resolution of ~0.08'' on average (~230 au). The presence of disks is important for…
