Cloud radiative effect dominates variabilities of surface energy budget in the dark Arctic [PDF]
Scientific ReportsClimate models simulate a wide range of temperatures in the Arctic. Here we investigate one of the main drivers of changes in surface temperature: the net surface heat flux in the models.

A Simplified Model for Investigating the Magnetic Field Morphology of a Massive Clump in an Infrared Dark Cloud [PDF]
Iranian Journal of Astronomy and Astrophysics, 2022 Observational results of the infrared dark clouds (IRDCs) reveal that these clouds exhibit a clumpy structure with directional line-of-sight velocity gradients.

JWST Reveals Widespread CO Ice and Gas Absorption in the Galactic Center Cloud G0.253+0.016
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 We report JWST NIRCam observations of G0.253+0.016, the molecular cloud in the Central Molecular Zone known as “The Brick,” with the F182M, F187N, F212N, F410M, F405N, and F466N filters.

Investigating the Globally Collapsing Hub–Filament Cloud G326.611+0.811
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 We present a dynamics study toward the G326.611+0.811 (G326) hub–filament system (HFS) cloud using new APEX observations of both ^13 CO and C ^18 O ( J = 2–1).

The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 G10.21-0.31 is a 70 μ m dark high-mass starless core ( M > 300 M _⊙ within r < 0.15 pc) identified in the Spitzer, Herschel, and APEX continuum surveys, and is believed to harbor the initial stages of high-mass star formation.

The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 Starless cores represent the initial stage of evolution toward (proto)star formation, and a subset of them, known as prestellar cores, with high density (∼ 10 ^6 cm ^−3 or higher) and being centrally concentrated are expected to be embryos of (proto ...

Multiscale Dynamical Scenario of High-mass Star Formation in an IRDC Filament G34
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 There is growing evidence that high-mass star formation (HMSF) is a multiscale, dynamical process in molecular clouds, where filaments transport gas material between larger and smaller scales.

The infrared Galactic disk: What have we learned?
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2012 A brief overview is given of some of the new insights we have achieved from the Spitzer/GLIMPSE/MIPSGAL surveys of the Galactic plane. Particular emphasis is given to infrared bubbles, rapidly accreting protostars, infrared dark clouds, and diffuse PAH ...
