We present observations of the Class 0 protostar IRAS 16544–1604 in CB 68 from the “Early Planet Formation in Embedded Disks (eDisk)” ALMA Large program. The ALMA observations target continuum and lines at 1.3 mm with an angular resolution of ∼5 au.

Stellar masses and star formation histories for 105 galaxies from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey [PDF]
We develop a new method to constrain the star formation histories, dust attenuation and stellar masses of galaxies. It is based on two stellar absorption-line indices, the 4000-A break strength and the Balmer absorption-line index Hδ A .

Star Formation in the LMC: Gravitational Instability and Dynamical Triggering [PDF]
Evidence for triggered star formation is difficult to establish because energy feedback from massive stars tend to erase the interstellar conditions that led to the star formation.

We explore methods to improve the estimates of star formation rates and mean stellar population ages from broadband photometry of high redshift star-forming galaxies.

Simulations of magnetized multiphase galactic disk regulated by supernovae explosions [PDF]
What exactly controls star formation in the Galaxy remains controversial. In particular, the role of feedback and magnetic field are still partially understood.

Implementing Dust Shielding as a Criteria for Star Formation [PDF]
Star formation is observed to be strongly correlated to dense regions of molecular gas. Although the exact nature of the link between star formation and molecular hydrogen is still unclear, some have suggested that shielding of dense gas by dust grains is the key factor enabling the presence of both.

The ALMaQUEST survey – III. Scatter in the resolved star-forming main sequence is primarily due to variations in star formation efficiency [PDF]
Using a sample of 11,478 spaxels in 34 galaxies with molecular gas, star formation and stellar maps taken from the ALMA-MaNGA QUEnching and STar formation (ALMaQUEST) survey, we investigate the parameters that correlate with variations in star formation ...

Star formation is boosted (and quenched) from the inside-out: radial star formation profiles from MaNGA [PDF]
The tight correlation between total galaxy stellar mass and star formation rate (SFR) has become known as the star forming main sequence. Using ~487,000 spaxels from galaxies observed as part of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Mapping Galaxies at Apache ...

PRESTALINE: a package for simulation and analysis of molecular spectra of star forming regions
We present the PRESTALINE package, a novel tool to simulate and analyse spectra of star forming objects. PRESTALINE allows for a direct comparison of theoretical models with observations and simplifies an analysis of observed spectra.

What Is Inside Matters: Simulated Green Valley Galaxies Have Centrally Concentrated Star Formation [PDF]
In spatially resolved galaxy observations, star formation rate radial profiles are found to correlate with total specific star formation rates. A central depletion in star formation is thought to correlate with the globally depressed star formation rates of, for example, galaxies within the Green Valley.
