FAUST XXXII. Chemically layered structures and ionisation in the disk and envelope of NGC 1333 IRAS 4C

Shota Notsu, Nami Sakai, Yichen Zhang +71

Recent molecular line observations with high spatial resolutions have revealed vertical chemical stratification in Class I/II disks (i.e. chemical composition changing with height…

FAUST XXXI. Grain properties and variability of three sources in GSS 30

Q. Yang, H. Baobab Liu, S. Feng +55

To advance our understanding of dust properties in class 0/I young stellar objects, it is crucial to resolve their structures at multiple wavelengths and investigate how grain grow…

Probing the ion-neutral drift velocity towards the L1544 prestellar core: Detection of ambipolar diffusion using ND and para-NHD

Doris Arzoumanian, Silvia Spezzano, Tommaso Grassi +9

The dynamical role of the magnetic field in the star formation process is tightly linked to the coupling between matter and the field. This coupling is due to the interaction betwe…

Evidence for Jet/Outflow Shocks Heating the Environment Around the Class I Protostellar Source Elias 29: FAUST XXI

Yoko Oya, Eri Saiga, Anna Miotello +1

We have observed the late Class I protostellar source Elias~29 at a spatial-resolution of 70~au with the Atacama~Large~Millimeter/submillimeter~Array (ALMA) as part of the FAUST La…

Organic chemistry in the protosolar analogue HOPS-108: Environment matters

L. Chahine, A. López-Sepulcre, R. Neri +10

Hot corinos are compact regions around solar-mass protostellar objects that are very rich in interstellar complex organic molecules (iCOMs). They are believed to represent the very…

Magnetized filamentary gas flows feeding the young embedded cluster in Serpens South

Thushara G. S. Pillai, Dan P. Clemens, Stefan Reissl +11

Observations indicate that molecular clouds are strongly magnetized, and that magnetic fields influence the formation of stars. A key observation supporting the conclusion that mol…

Polarized emission by aligned grains in the Mie regime : application to protoplanetary disks observed by ALMA

V. Guillet, J. M. Girart, A. J. Maury +1

The azimuthal polarization patterns observed in some protoplanetary disks by ALMA at millimeter wavelength have raised doubts about their being produced by dust grains aligned with…

Gas flow and accretion via spiral streamers and circumstellar disks in a young binary protostar

Felipe O. Alves, Paola Caselli, Josep M. Girart +4

The majority of stars are part of gravitationally bound stellar systems, such as binaries. Observations of protobinary systems constrain the conditions that lead to stellar multipl…

ALMA reveals the magnetic field evolution in the high-mass star forming complex G9.62+0.19

Daria Dall'Olio, W. H. T. Vlemmings, M. V. Persson +6

Context. The role of magnetic fields during the formation of high-mass stars is not yet fully understood, and the processes related to the early fragmentation and collapse are larg…

Magnetic field in a young circumbinary disk

Felipe O. Alves, Josep M. Girart, Marco Padovani +6

We use polarization observations of a circumbinary disk to investigate how the polarization properties change at distinct frequency bands. Our goal is to discern the main mechanism…

Molecular line emission in NGC 4945, imaged with ALMA

C. Henkel, S. Muehle, G. Bendo +31

NGC 4945 is one of the nearest (~3.8 Mpc; 1" ~ 19 pc) starburst galaxies. ALMA band 3 (3--4\,mm) observations of HCN, HCO+, CS, C3H2, SiO, HCO, and CH3C2H were carried out with ~2"…

The Green Bank Ammonia Survey: Unveiling the Dynamics of the Barnard 59 star-forming Clump

E. Redaelli, F. O. Alves, P. Caselli +17

Understanding the early stages of star formation is a research field of ongoing development, both theoretically and observationally. In this context, molecular data have been conti…

Seeds of Life in Space (SOLIS) III. Formamide in protostellar shocks: evidence for gas-phase formation

C. Codella, C. Ceccarelli, P. Caselli +47

Context: Modern versions of the Miller-Urey experiment claim that formamide (NHCHO) could be the starting point for the formation of metabolic and genetic macromolecules. Intri…

SOLIS II. Carbon-chain growth in the Solar-type protocluster OMC2-FIR4

F. Fontani, C. Ceccarelli, C. Favre +42

The interstellar delivery of carbon atoms locked into molecules might be one of the key ingredients for the emergence of life. Cyanopolyynes are carbon chains delimited at their tw…
