Torsionally excited methanol in massive young stellar objects: The role of the mid-IR radiation field
C. Sanna, S. Leurini, A. Giannetti +9
Observing the earliest stages of high-mass star formation in the mid-infrared (mid-IR) is challenging because the extinction is high and the resolution limited. Millimeter vibratio…
Before fragmentation: from uniform clouds to stellar clusters
A. Giannetti, T. Pillai, J. Kauffmann +4
Our study of the early stages of fragmentation in massive clumps has revealed a striking anomaly: of the CoCoA sample exhibit no fragmentation at all. These sources coul…
ATLASGAL: The HCN-IR Star Formation Relation for the Milky Way
I. I. Grozdanova, J. S. Urquhart, W. -J. Kim +8
We examine the relation between star formation and dense gas, traced by HCN(1-0), using a sample of 343 Galactic clumps spanning the full range of evolutionary stages representativ…
OGHReS: Star formation in the Outer Galaxy II (-)
J. S. Urquhart, C. Koenig, D. Colombo +19
The Outer Galaxy High-Resolution Survey (OGHReS) covers 100 square degrees () in the (2--1) transitions of three CO-isotopologues. We use the spectra…
CHOH as a User-Friendly Density Probe: Calibration and Beyond
A. Giannetti, S. Leurini, E. Schisano +4
Almost all the physics of star formation critically depends on the number density of the molecular gas. However, the methods to estimate this key property often rely on uncertain a…
Gas infall via accretion disk feeding Cepheus A HW2
A. Sanna, A. Oliva, L. Moscadelli +10
The star-forming region Cepheus A hosts a very young star, called HW2, that is the second closest to us growing a dozen times more massive than our Sun. The circumstellar environme…
