Pulsed accretion in a variable protostar [PDF]
Periodic increases in luminosity arising from variable accretion rates have been predicted for some close pre-main sequence binary stars as they grow from circumbinary disks. The phenomenon is known as "pulsed accretion" and can affect the orbital evolution and mass distribution of young binaries, as well as the potential for planet formation in the ...

Complex organic molecules in low-mass protostars on Solar System scales [PDF]
Context. The chemical inventory of planets is determined by the physical and chemical processes that govern the early phases of star formation. Nitrogen-bearing species are of interest as many provide crucial precursors in the formation of life-related ...

Protostar Formation in the Early Universe [PDF]
The nature of the first generation of stars in the universe remains largely unknown. Observations imply the existence of massive primordial stars early in the history of the universe, and the standard theory for the growth of cosmic structure predicts that structures grow hierarchically through gravitational instability.

The CALYPSO IRAM-PdBI survey of jets from Class 0 protostars [PDF]
Aims. As a part of the CALYPSO Large Program, we aim to constrain the properties of protostellar jets and outflows by searching for corresponding emission in a sample of 21 Class 0 protostars covering a broad range of internal luminosities (Lint from 0 ...

Abstract The kinetics of the tautomerization of thio‐imidic acids RC(SH)NH were determined at low (50–300 K) and high (500–1500 K) temperatures as R was varied to encompass mono‐ and diatomic species H, F, HO, NC, CN through H2N, HC(O), HC(S), HC≡ C, H3C, F3C, HOCH2, H2C=CH, CH3C(O), H2NCH2 and including ethyl, isopropyl and phenyl groups. The presence

ORion Alma New GEneration Survey (ORANGES). I. Dust continuum and free-free emission of OMC-2/3 filament protostars [PDF]
The spectral energy distribution (SED) in the millimetre (mm) to centimetre (cm) range is a useful tool for characterising the dust in protostellar envelopes as well as free-free emission from the protostar and outflow.

Abstract The origin and transport of water in the early Solar System is an important topic in both astrophysics and planetary science, with applications to protosolar disk evolution, planetary formation, and astrobiology. Of particular interest for understanding primordial water transport are the unequilibrated ordinary chondrites (UOCs), which have ...

JWST Observations of Young protoStars (JOYS). Overview of program and early results [PDF]
The embedded phase of star formation is a crucial period in the development of a young star when the system still accretes matter, emerges from its natal cloud with assistance from powerful jets and outflows, and forms a disk, thus setting the stage for ...

Loading of Amino Acids onto RNA in a Putative RNA‐Peptide World
The loading of RNAs with amino acids constitutes the first step toward RNA‐based peptide synthesis in a putative prebiotic RNA‐peptide world. The efficient loading of RNA strands incorporating N‐methylcarbamoyl nucleotides with a series of amino acids is reported. The loaded RNA strands also underwent RNA‐based amino acid transfer reactions.

The grain size distribution of matrix in primitive chondrites
Abstract The matrix of primitive chondrites is composed of submicron crystals embedded in amorphous silicates. These grains are thought to be the remains of relatively unprocessed dust from the inner regions of the protoplanetary disk. The matrix of primitive meteorites is often compared to chondritic porous interplanetary dust particles (CP‐IDPs ...
