TIMES II: Investigating the Relation Between Turbulence and Star-forming Environments in Molecular Clouds

Hyeong-Sik Yun, Jeong-Eun Lee, Neal J. Evans +14

We investigate the effect of star formation on turbulence in the Orion A and Ophiuchus clouds using principal component analysis (PCA). We measure the properties of turbulence by a…

TIMES I: a Systematic Observation in Multiple Molecular Lines Toward the Orion A and Ophiuchus Clouds

Hyeong-Sik Yun, Jeong-Eun Lee, Yunhee Choi +16

We have used the Taeduk Radio Astronomy Observatory to observe the Orion A and Ophiuchus clouds in the 10 lines of CO, CO, HCN, HCO, and NH and the…

Velocity-coherent Filaments in NGC 1333: Evidence for Accretion Flow?

Michael Chun-Yuan Chen, James Di Francesco, Erik Rosolowsky +11

Recent observations of global velocity gradients across and along molecular filaments have been interpreted as signs of gas accreting onto and along these filaments, potentially fe…

The Green Bank Ammonia Survey: Observations of Hierarchical Dense Gas Structures in Cepheus-L1251

Jared Keown, James Di Francesco, Helen Kirk +20

We use Green Bank Ammonia Survey observations of NH (1,1) and (2,2) emission with 32'' FWHM resolution from a ~ 10 pc portion of the Cepheus-L1251 molecular cloud to iden…

The Green Bank Ammonia Survey: Dense Cores Under Pressure in Orion A

Helen Kirk, Rachel K. Friesen, Jaime E. Pineda +21

We use gas temperature and velocity dispersion data from the Green Bank Ammonia Survey and core masses and sizes from the James Clerk Maxwell Telescope Gould Belt Survey to estimat…

Local Magnetic Field Role in Star Formation

Patrick M. Koch, Ya-Wen Tang, Paul T. P. Ho +14

We highlight distinct and systematic observational features of magnetic field morphologies in polarized submm dust continuum. We illustrate this with specific examples and show sta…

The Importance of the Magnetic Field from an SMA-CSO-Combined Sample of Star-Forming Regions

Patrick M. Koch, Ya-Wen Tang, Paul T. P. Ho +14

Submillimeter dust polarization measurements of a sample of 50 star-forming regions, observed with the SMA and the CSO covering pc-scale clouds to mpc-scale cores, are analyzed in…

Magnetic Fields and Massive Star Formation

Qizhou Zhang, Keping Qiu, Josep M. Girart +17

Massive stars ( \msun) typically form in parsec-scale molecular clumps that collapse and fragment, leading to the birth of a cluster of stellar objects. We investigate the r…

Emission Mechanism of "Green Fuzzies" in High-mass Star Forming Regions

Michihiro Takami, How-Huan Chen, Jennifer L. Karr +3

The Infrared Array Camera (IRAC) on the Spitzer Space Telescope has revealed that a number of high-mass protostars are associated with extended mid-infrared emission, particularly…

A Detailed Study of Spitzer-IRAC Emission in Herbig-Haro Objects (I): Morphology and Flux Ratios of Shocked Emission

Michihiro Takami, Jennifer L. Karr, Haegon Koh +2

We present a detailed analysis of Spitzer-IRAC images obtained toward six Herbig-Haro objects (HH 54/211/212, L 1157/1448, BHR 71). Our analysis includes: (1) comparisons in morpho…
