The star formation history of Orion is structured and episodic

Alena Rottensteiner, João Alves, Stefan Meingast +6

The propagation of star formation throughout a molecular cloud complex can tell us much about its physical drivers and the importance of environmental versus intrinsic processes. W…

The dispersal law of young star clusters: free expansion -- A Gaia/eROSITA census of Orion and Sco--Cen

João Alves, Stefan Meingast, Alena Rottensteiner

We measure how young star clusters disperse over time in the two nearest star-forming complexes. Our sample comprises 44 \texttt{SigMA}-\textit{Gaia}-defined clusters in Orion and…

HURACAN: A comparison of stellar and interstellar proper motions inside L1688

M. Piecka, J. Alves, A. Rottensteiner +3

The assumption that molecular clouds are kinematically coupled to the young stellar populations forming within them is observationally still poorly constrained. With the transverse…

A comprehensive cluster census of Orion. An application of the Significance Mode Analysis (SigMA) algorithm

Alena Rottensteiner, Sebastian Ratzenböck, João Alves +2

Precise astrometric surveys and modern clustering algorithms are working in step to transform our view of star-forming regions. By revealing a much richer substructure than previou…

Accelerated gas flow along Ophiuchus B44 filament: Breaking Position-Position-Velocity degeneracy

J. Alves, C. Zucker, C. Lada +15

(Abridged) Stellar feedback from massive stars in the Upper-Sco has been proposed to have reshaped the gas in the nearby Ophiuchus complex. In this framework, feedback organizes th…

The First Glimpse of Water Ice Absorption Map in the Milky Way

Zhetai Cao, Biwei Jiang, Stefan Meingast

Interstellar ice plays a key role in the thermal evolution of the interstellar medium and in astrochemical pathways, yet its large-scale distribution remains poorly constrained. We…

Infrared period-luminosity relations of Galactic Miras based on multi-epoch photometry and the Gaia parallax uncertainty

S. Uttenthaler, T. Lebzelter, S. Meingast

Miras and other long-period variable (LPV) stars on the AGB follow period-luminosity (PL) relations. These relations have been difficult to study for Galactic LPVs because their di…
