The ALMA-QUARKS Survey: Properties of Hot Molecular Fragments in the Massive Protocluster IRAS 17233-3606
Li Chen, Sheng-Li Qin, Dongting Yang +29
To investigate the physical mechanisms of fragmentation within the hot molecular core of the massive protocluster IRAS 17233-3606 (G351.78-0.54), we carried out a detailed analysis…
Evolution of starless cores in massive clumps seen by the ALMA ASHES and QUARKS surveys
Dongting Yang, Hong-li Liu, Sheng-li Qin +28
We present a systematic comparative analysis of 324 starless cores in early-phase infrared-dark clouds (IRDCs; ASHES survey) and evolved-phase infrared-bright clouds (IRBCs; QUARKS…
The ALMA-QUARKS survey: Investigating Thermal Feedback of Massive Protostars in Hot Molecular Cores
Dezhao Meng, Tie Liu, Jarken Esimbek +33
We identify a sample of 83 spatially resolved hot molecular cores (HMCs) in the QUARKS survey, aiming at investigating thermal feedback from massive stars. Using CHCN\,(12--11)…
Discovery of a Compact Hub-Filament System in G286.21+0.17 with JWST and ALMA: Insights into Protocluster Formation and Competitive Accretion
L. K. Dewangan, N. K. Bhadari, Ram K. Yadav +17
We present a multi-wavelength study of the massive protocluster G286.21+0.17 (G286) using \emph{JWST} near-infrared imaging and ALMA HCO(1--0) observations. The \emph{…
ATOMS-QUARKS survey: Inflow and infall in massive protocluster G318.049+00.086: Evidence of competitive accretion
Shivani Gupta, Tapas Baug, Archana Soam +17
We present a gas kinematic study of the massive protocluster G318.049+00.086. The protocluster is reported to contain 12 prestellar core candidates and 4 protostellar cores. Filame…
MAJORS II: HCO+& HCN Abundances in W40
René Plume, David J. Eden, Malcolm J. Currie +34
We present observations of HCN and HCO J = in the central region of the W40 massive star forming region. The observations were taken as part of a p…
