Hidden Binaries in Star-forming Regions [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
A significant fraction of, and possibly all, stars form in binary or multiple systems. For solar-mass stars in the Galactic field, the distribution of orbital separations is log-normal over 7 orders of magnitude, from 10 ^−2  to 10 ^5 au.

Evolution of Southern Star-Forming Regions

open access: yesAstrophysics and Space Science, 1997
We present ISO observations of bright, high-mass southern star-forming regions with the Short Wavelength Spectrometer (SWS) and Long Wavelength Spectrometer (LWS). The selected targets show a range of pre-main sequence evolutionary phases. Whereas some objects still show interstellar ice features, the most evolved objects are coincident with ...

Structure in Star Forming Regions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Stars form in clumpy, highly substructured environments. In this thesis I set up N-body simulations of substructured star forming regions and investigate the impact that the substructure has on the survival of the star forming regions.

Organic compounds in star forming regions. [PDF]

open access: yesOrig Life Evol Biosph, 2014
The influence of complex dust composition on the general chemical evolution of a prestellar core and the content of complex organic compounds is studied. It is shown that various component groups respond differently to the presence of a small dust population.

Investigating the Impact of Metallicity on Star Formation in the Outer Galaxy. I. VLT/KMOS Survey of Young Stellar Objects in Canis Major

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series, 2023
The effects of metallicity on the evolution of protoplanetary disks may be studied in the outer Galaxy where the metallicity is lower than in the solar neighborhood.

Star-Forming Regions in the SMC [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2006
AbstractSMC has been going through an active star formation epoch, especially during the last 0.2 Gyr when the close encounter with the LMC occured. Our goal is to detect regions dominated by early-type stars and gas and examine their behaviour at different wavelengths.

Young Stellar Object Candidates in IC 417

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2023
IC 417 is in the Galactic plane, and likely part of the Aur OB2 association; it is ∼2 kpc away. Stock 8 is one of the densest cluster constituents; off of it to the east, there is a “nebulous stream” (NS) that is dramatic in the infrared (IR).

HH 80/81: Structure and Kinematics of the Fastest Protostellar Outflow

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Hubble Space Telescope (HST) images obtained in 2018 are combined with archival HST data taken in 1995 to detect changes and measure proper motions in the HH 80/81 shock complex, which is powered by the fastest known jet driven by a forming star, the ...

Water in star- and planet-forming regions [PDF]

open access: yesPhilosophical Transactions of the Royal Society A: Mathematical, Physical and Engineering Sciences, 2012
In this paper, we discuss the astronomical search for water vapour in order to understand the disposition of water in all its phases throughout the processes of star and planet formation. Our ability to detect and study water vapour has recently received a tremendous boost with the successful launch and operation of the ...
