Searching for coronal radio emission from protostars using Very-Long-Baseline Interferometry

open access: yes, 2007
In order to directly study the role of magnetic fields in the immediate vicinity of protostars, we use Very-Long-Baseline Interferometry (VLBI), aiming at the detection of non-thermal centimetric radio emission.

High-resolution simulations of clump-clump collisions using SPH with Particle Splitting [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
We investigate, by means of numerical simulations, the phenomenology of star formation triggered by low-velocity collisions between low-mass molecular clumps. The simulations are performed using an SPH code which satisfies the Jeans condition by invoking

The SOFIA Massive (SOMA) Star Formation Survey. IV. Isolated Protostars

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2022
We present ∼10–40 μ m SOFIA-FORCAST images of 11 isolated protostars as part of the SOFIA Massive (SOMA) Star Formation Survey, with this morphological classification based on 37 μ m imaging.

Jets in Low-Mass Protostars

open access: yesUniverse
Jets and outflows are key components of low-mass star formation, regulating accretion and shaping the surrounding molecular clouds. These flows, traced by molecular species at (sub)millimeter wavelengths (e.g., CO, SiO, SO, H2CO, and CH3OH) and by atomic,

Early Planet Formation in Embedded Disks (eDisk). III. A First High-resolution View of Submillimeter Continuum and Molecular Line Emission toward the Class 0 Protostar L1527 IRS

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Studying the physical and chemical conditions of young embedded disks is crucial to constrain the initial conditions for planet formation. Here we present Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array observations of dust continuum at ∼0.″06 (8 au ...

Key Physical Parameters Influencing Fragmentation and Multiplicity in Dense Cores of Orion A

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
When dense cores in molecular clouds or filamentary structures collapse and form protostars, they may undergo fragmentation and form binary or multiple systems.

A VLA Search for Water Masers in Six HII Regions: Tracers of Triggered Low-Mass Star Formation

open access: yes, 2004
We present a search for water maser emission at 22 GHz associated with young low-mass protostars in six HII regions -- M16, M20, NGC 2264, NGC 6357, S125, and S140. The survey was conducted with the NRAO Very Large Array from 2000 to 2002. For several of

Chemical Evolution of Protostars [PDF]

open access: yesAstrophysics and Space Science, 2005
This review discusses the evolution of the chemical composition of the molecular gas throughout the process of star formation. It covers the initial stages of cloud-core formation, gravitational collapse and the formation of the star, the effects of stellar radiation and outflows on the surrounding cloud, and the composition of the circumstellar disk ...

Evolution of column density distributions within Orion~A

open access: yes, 2015
We compare the structure of star-forming molecular clouds in different regions of Orion A to determine how the column density probability distribution function (N-PDF) varies with environmental conditions such as the fraction of young protostars.

The Structure and Kinematics of Three Class 0 Protostellar Jets from JWST

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We present observations of jets within 2000 au of three deeply embedded protostars using 2.9–27 μ m observations with JWST. These observations show the morphologies and kinematics of the collimated jets from three protostars, the low-mass Class 0 ...
