ACES: The Magnetic Field in Large Filaments in the Galactic Center

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
The Galactic center (GC) is an extreme region of the Milky Way that is host to a complex set of thermal and nonthermal structures. In particular, the GC contains high-density gas and dust that is collectively referred to as the Central Molecular Zone ...

Multiscale Mass-assembly Scenario in the High-mass Star-forming Filament IRAS 19368+2239 Observed as Part of the INFANT Survey

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
A multiscale dynamical mass-assembly scenario, where stars form through multiscale fragmentation and hierarchical gas infall from clouds to filaments, clumps, and cores, has been proposed for high-mass star formation, but the precise observational ...

The Formation of Milky Way “Bones”: Ubiquitous HI Narrow Self-absorption Associated with CO Emission

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
Long and skinny molecular filaments running along Galactic spiral arms are known as “bones,” since they make up the skeleton of the Milky Way. However, their origin is still an open question.

Interstellar filaments and the statistics of galactic HI

open access: yes, 2007
This paper presents a statistical explanation of filament formation in the galactic atomic hydrogen. We claim that even in the absence of dynamical factors the Gaussian field corresponding to the measured values of the spectrum of random density should ...

Filamentary Network and Magnetic Field Structures Revealed with BISTRO in the High-mass Star-forming Region NGC 2264: Global Properties and Local Magnetogravitational Configurations

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We report 850 μ m continuum polarization observations toward the filamentary high-mass star-forming region NGC 2264, taken as part of the B -fields In STar forming Regions Observations large program on the James Clerk Maxwell Telescope. These data reveal

Cosmic-Ray Feedback on Bistable Interstellar Medium Turbulence

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
While cosmic rays ( E ≳ 1 GeV) are well coupled to a galaxy’s interstellar medium (ISM) at scales of L > 100 pc, adjusting stratification and driving outflows, their impact on small scales is less clear.

Characterizing filaments in regions of high-mass star formation: High-resolution submilimeter imaging of the massive star-forming complex NGC 6334 with ArT\'eMiS [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
International audienceHerschel observations of nearby molecular clouds suggest that interstellar filaments and prestellar cores represent two fundamental steps in the star formation process.

Cluster Formation in a Filamentary Cloud: The Case of the Stellar Cluster NGC 2316

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
We present a multiwavelength analysis of the star cluster NGC 2316 and its surroundings. We estimated the physical parameters of the NGC 2316 cluster, including its shape (elongated), size ( R _cluster = 0.4 pc), distance (1.3 ± 0.3 kpc), and minimum ...
