JWST observations of CO ice: Tracing the chemical environment and thermal history of ices in protostellar envelopes
Nashanty G. C. Brunken, Will R. M. Rocha, Ewine F. van Dishoeck +38
The structure and composition of simple ices can be modified during stellar evolution by protostellar heating. Key to understanding the involved processes are thermal and chemical…
Co-Evolution of Stars and Gas: Using Analysis of Synthetic Observations to Investigate the Star-Gas Correlation in STARFORGE
Samuel Millstone, Robert Gutermuth, Stella S. R. Offner +2
We explore the relationship between stellar surface density and gas surface density (the star-gas or S-G correlation) in a 20,000 M simulation from the STAR FORmation in…
Completing the Protostellar Luminosity Function in Cygnus-X with SOFIA/FORCAST Imaging
Yingjie Cheng, Robert A. Gutermuth, Stella Offner +4
We present a new SOFIA/FORCAST mid-IR survey of luminous protostars and crowded star-forming environments in Cygnus X, the nearest million-solar mass molecular cloud complex. We de…
The Single-Cloud Star Formation Relation
Riwaj Pokhrel, Robert A. Gutermuth, Mark R. Krumholz +10
One of the most important and well-established empirical results in astronomy is the Kennicutt-Schmidt (KS) relation between the density of interstellar gas and the rate at which t…
An HST Survey of Protostellar Outflow Cavities: Does Feedback Clear Envelopes?
Nolan M. Habel, S. Thomas Megeath, Joseph Jon Booker +10
We study protostellar envelope and outflow evolution using Hubble Space Telescope NICMOS or WFC3 images of 304 protostars in the Orion Molecular clouds. These near-IR images resolv…
Reconstructing three-dimensional densities from two-dimensional observations of molecular gas
Zipeng Hu, Mark R. Krumholz, Christoph Federrath +2
Star formation has long been known to be an inefficient process, in the sense that only a small fraction of the mass of any given gas cloud is converted to stars per c…
