Deuteration of Organic Molecules as a Probe of Starless Core and Filament Evolution in Barnard 10
Hanga Andras-Letanovszky, Yancy L. Shirley, Lucille J. Steffes +4
The deuterium fractionation of molecules in starless cores is sensitive to their dynamical histories, which recent magnetohydrodynamical simulations have shown to be extremely vari…
CMZoom IV. Incipient High-Mass Star Formation Throughout the Central Molecular Zone
H Perry Hatchfield, Cara Battersby, Ashley T. Barnes +15
In this work, we constrain the star-forming properties of all possible sites of incipient high-mass star formation in the Milky Way's Galactic Center. We identify dense structures…
Evidence of a Cloud-Cloud Collision from Overshooting Gas in the Galactic Center
Savannah R. Gramze, Adam Ginsburg, David S. Meier +4
The Milky Way is a barred spiral galaxy with "bar lanes" that bring gas towards the Galactic Center. Gas flowing along these bar lanes often overshoots, and instead of accreting on…
3D Radiative Transfer Modelling and Virial Analysis of Starless Cores in the B10 Region of the Taurus Molecular Cloud
Samantha Scibelli, Yancy Shirley, Anika Schmiedeke +4
Low-mass stars like our Sun begin their evolution within cold (10 K) and dense ( cm) cores of gas and dust. The physical structure of starless cores is best probe…
FAUST VI. VLA 1623--2417 B: a new laboratory for astrochemistry around protostars on 50 au scale
C. Codella, A. López-Sepulcre, S. Ohashi +25
The ALMA interferometer, with its unprecedented combination of high-sensitivity and high-angular resolution, allows for (sub-)mm wavelength mapping of protostellar systems at Solar…
Hot methanol in the [BHB2007] 11 protobinary system: hot corino versus shock origin? : FAUST V
C. Vastel, F. Alves, C. Ceccarelli +63
Methanol is a ubiquitous species commonly found in the molecular interstellar medium. It is also a crucial seed species for the building-up of the chemical complexity in star formi…
FAUST III. Misaligned rotations of the envelope, outflow, and disks in the multiple protostellar system of VLA 16232417
Satoshi Ohashi, Claudio Codella, Nami Sakai +69
We report a study of the low-mass Class-0 multiple system VLA 1623AB in the Ophiuchus star-forming region, using HCO (), CS (), and CCH () lines as…
ALMA-IMF I -- Investigating the origin of stellar masses: Introduction to the Large Program and first results
F. Motte, S. Bontemps, T. Csengeri +61
The ALMA-IMF Large Program imaged a total noncontiguous area of 53pc2, covering 15 extreme, nearby protoclusters of the Milky Way. They were selected to span relevant early protocl…
ALMA-IMF II -- investigating the origin of stellar masses: Continuum Images and Data Processing
A. Ginsburg, T. Csengeri, R. Galván-Madrid +49
We present the first data release of the ALMA-IMF Large Program, which covers the 12m-array continuum calibration and imaging. The ALMA-IMF Large Program is a survey of fifteen den…
The MUSTANG-2 Galactic Plane Survey (MGPS90) pilot
Adam Ginsburg, L. D. Anderson, Simon Dicker +19
We report the results of a pilot program for a Green Bank Telescope (GBT) MUSTANG Galactic Plane survey at 3 mm (90 GHz), MGPS90. The survey achieves a typical depth of …
ALMA observations of fragmentation, sub-structure, and protostars in high-mass starless clump candidates
Brian E. Svoboda, Yancy L. Shirley, Alessio Traficante +7
(Abridged) The initial physical conditions of high-mass stars and protoclusters remain poorly characterized. To this end we present the first targeted ALMA 1.3mm continuum and spec…
Searching for Inflow Towards Massive Starless Clump Candidates Identified in the Bolocam Galactic Plane Survey
Jenny Calahan, Yancy Shirley, Brian Svoboda +22
Recent Galactic plane surveys of dust continuum emission at long wavelengths have identified a population of dense, massive clumps with no evidence for on-going star formation. The…
The Lifetimes of Phases in High-Mass Star-Forming Regions
Cara Battersby, John Bally, Brian Svoboda
High-mass stars form within star clusters from dense, molecular regions, but is the process of cluster formation slow and hydrostatic or quick and dynamic? We link the physical pro…
The Bolocam Galactic Plane Survey. XIV. Physical Properties of Massive Starless and Star Forming Clumps
Brian E Svoboda, Yancy L Shirley, Cara Battersby +8
We sort molecular clouds between from the Bolocam Galactic Plane Survey based on observational diagnostics of star formation activity: compact $70…
The Bolocam Galactic Plane Survey. XII. Distance Catalog Expansion Using Kinematic Isolation of Dense Molecular Cloud Structures With 13CO(1-0)
Timothy P. Ellsworth-Bowers, Erik Rosolowsky, Jason Glenn +5
We present an expanded distance catalog for 1,710 molecular cloud structures identified in the Bolocam Galactic Plane Survey (BGPS) version 2, representing a nearly threefold incre…
Ammonia Thermometry of Star Forming Galaxies
Jeffrey G. Mangum, Jeremy Darling, Christian Henkel +4
With a goal toward deriving the physical conditions in external galaxies, we present a study of the ammonia (NH) emission and absorption in a sample of star forming systems. Us…
