Tentative Detection of FeS toward Orion SrcI

Aitana Tasa-Chaveli, Holger S. P. Müller, Álvaro Sánchez-Monge +3

Iron sulfide (FeS) is a key refractory compound in astrophysical environments. It is commonly found in meteorites and evidence of FeS has only been reported in solid form in a prot…

Properties of masers and their associated sources in Sagittarius B2

Nazar Budaiev, Adam Ginsburg, Ciriaco Goddi +5

We present high-resolution Karl G. Jansky Very Large Array observations of the 22 GHz maser line in the extended Sagittarius B2 cloud. We detect 499 …

Thermal Properties of the Hot Core Population in Sagittarius B2 Deep South

Desmond Jeff, Adam Ginsburg, Alyssa Bulatek +7

We report the discovery of 9 new hot molecular cores in the Deep South (DS) region of Sagittarius B2 using Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array Band 6 observations. We meas…

A probable Keplerian disk feeding an optically revealed massive young star

Anna F. McLeod, Pamela D. Klaassen, Megan Reiter +3

The canonical picture of star formation involves disk-mediated accretion, with Keplerian accretion disks and associated bipolar jets primarily observed in nearby, low-mass young st…

Far-Infrared Luminosity Bursts Trace Mass Accretion onto Protostars

William J. Fischer, Cara Battersby, Doug Johnstone +6

Evidence abounds that young stellar objects undergo luminous bursts of intense accretion that are short compared to the time it takes to form a star. It remains unclear how much th…

The physical and chemical structure of Sagittarius B2 -- VI. UCHII regions in Sgr B2

Fanyi Meng, Álvaro Sánchez-Monge, Peter Schilke +8

The giant molecular cloud Sagittarius B2 (hereafter SgrB2) is the most massive region with ongoing high-mass star formation in the Galaxy. Two ultra-compact HII (UCHII) regions wer…

Substructures in the Keplerian disc around the O-type (proto)star G17.64+0.16

L. T. Maud, R. Cesaroni, M. S. N. Kumar +20

We present the highest angular resolution (20x15mas - 44x33au) Atacama Large Millimeter/sub-millimeter Array (ALMA) observations currently possible of the proto-O-star G17.64+0.16…

STATCONT: A statistical continuum level determination method for line-rich sources

A. Sanchez-Monge, P. Schilke, A. Ginsburg +2

STATCONT is a python-based tool designed to determine the continuum emission level in spectral data, in particular for sources with a line-rich spectrum. The tool inspects the inte…

Thermal Feedback in the high-mass star and cluster forming region W51

Adam Ginsburg, Ciriaco Goddi, J. M. Diederik Kruijssen +11

High-mass stars have generally been assumed to accrete most of their mass while already contracted onto the main sequence, but this hypothesis has not been observationally tested.…

The physical and chemical structure of Sagittarius B2. II. Continuum millimeter emission of SgrB2(M) and SgrB2(N) with ALMA

A. Sanchez-Monge, P. Schilke, A. Schmiedeke +8

The high-mass star forming sites SgrB2(M) and SgrB2(N) have been the target of numerous studies, revealing e.g. a rich chemistry. We want to characterize their physical and chemica…

The ALMA View of the OMC1 Explosion in Orion

John Bally, Adam Ginsburg, Hector Arce +4

Most massive stars form in dense clusters where gravitational interactions with other stars may be common. The two nearest forming massive stars, the BN object and Source I, locate…

Temperature structures in Galactic Center clouds - Direct evidence for gas heating via turbulence

K. Immer, J. Kauffmann, T. Pillai +2

The Central Molecular Zone (CMZ) at the center of our Galaxy is the best template to study star formation processes under extreme conditions, similar to those in high-redshift gala…

A nebular analysis of the central Orion Nebula with MUSE

A. F. Mc Leod, P. M. Weilbacher, A. Ginsburg +3

A nebular analysis of the central Orion Nebula and its main structures is presented. We exploit MUSE integral field observations in the wavelength range 4595-9366 Å to produce the…

The Pillars of Creation revisited with MUSE: gas kinematics and high-mass stellar feedback traced by optical spectroscopy

A. F. Mc Leod, J. E. Dale, A. Ginsburg +4

Integral field unit (IFU) data of the iconic Pillars of Creation in M16 are presented. The ionisation structure of the pillars was studied in great detail over almost the entire vi…

The optically bright post-AGB population of the LMC

E. van Aarle, H. Van Winckel, T. Lloyd Evans +3

The detected variety in chemistry and circumstellar shell morphology of the limited sample of Galactic post-AGB stars is so large that there is no consensus yet on how the differen…

Densitometry and Thermometry of Starburst Galaxies

Jeffrey G. Mangum, Jeremy Darling, Karl M. Menten +2

With a goal toward deriving the physical conditions in external galaxies, we present a survey of formaldehyde (H2CO) and ammonia (NH3) emission and absorption in a sample of starbu…
