Cracking open the "dragon egg": ALMA 1.3mm observations of a compact, young high-mass core candidate at 30mas resolution

A. T. Barnes, J. D. Henshaw, Á. Sánchez-Monge +14

Massive prestellar cores are a central assumption of core-accretion models of high-mass star formation, yet convincing observational examples remain rare. The "dragon egg" (C2c1a)…

Corona Australis 151: an extremely young protostar

E. Redaelli, S. Spezzano, P. Caselli +9

Context. Prestellar cores are the birthplace of stars and planetary systems, but they are short-lived objects, since the initial stages of dense core evolution, collapse, and the f…

Can diffuse X-rays be important in driving photoionisation in molecular clouds?

E. I. Makarenko, A. V. Ivlev, S. Bialy +5

The ionisation balance in molecular clouds is regulated by several ionising sources, including cosmic rays, X-rays, and ultraviolet radiation. Their relative importance depends on…

Spatially resolved thermal dust emission in the L1157 outflow reveals grain-driven molecular enrichment

Siyi Feng, Hauyu Baobab Liu, Yang Lu +11

Protostellar outflow shocks reshape local dust properties and molecular chemistry. The L1157 outflow is an archetypal chemically rich shocked region, but the thermal dust associate…

End-to-end differentiable retrieval of molecular spectra using hydrodynamics, chemistry, and radiative transfer

T. Grassi, G. Vermariën, J. E. Pineda +3

We aim to reproduce observed molecular line emission using a pipeline that couples hydrodynamics, chemistry, and radiative transfer, capable of simultaneously optimizing all releva…

A tale of two isotopes: Spatial variation in HCN fractionation toward young cores

Sigurd S. Jensen, Silvia Spezzano, Olli Sipilä +3

Context. Isotopic fractionation can serve as a powerful tracer of the chemical evolution during star and planet formation. To accurately interpret observations, it is crucial to id…
