A Wideband Chemical Survey of Massive Star-forming Regions at Subarcsecond Resolution with the Submillimeter Array

Charles J. Law, Qizhou Zhang, Arielle C. Frommer +7

Massive star-forming regions exhibit a rich chemistry with complex gas distributions, especially on small scales. While surveys have yielded constraints on typical gas conditions,…

ALMA Observations of Supernova Remnant N49 in the Large Magellanic Cloud. II. Non-LTE Analysis of Shock-heated Molecular Clouds

H. Sano, Y. Yamane, J. Th. van Loon +28

We present the first compelling evidence of shock-heated molecular clouds associated with the supernova remnant (SNR) N49 in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC). Using CO( =…

Clustered Formation of Massive Stars within an Ionized Rotating Disk

Roberto Galván-Madrid, Qizhou Zhang, Andrés Izquierdo +7

We present ALMA observations with a 800 au resolution and radiative-transfer modelling of the inner part ( au) of the ionized accretion flow around a compact star clu…

Molecules with ALMA at Planet-forming Scales (MAPS) XII: Inferring the C/O and S/H ratios in Protoplanetary Disks with Sulfur Molecules

Romane Le Gal, Karin I. Öberg, Richard Teague +24

Sulfur-bearing molecules play an important role in prebiotic chemistry and planet habitability. They are also proposed probes of chemical ages, elemental C/O ratio, and grain chemi…
