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

Star-Forming Regions in the SMC [PDF]
Proceedings 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.

Dusty magnetohydrodynamics in star-forming regions [PDF]
Journal of Plasma Physics, 2010 AbstractStar formation occurs in dark molecular regions where the number density of hydrogen nuclei nH exceeds 104 cm−3 and the fractional ionization is 10−7 or less. Dust grains with sizes ranging up to tenths of microns and perhaps down to tens of nanometers contain just less than 1% of the mass.

Comparing Complex Chemistry in Neighboring Hot Cores: NOEMA Studies of W3(H2O) and W3(OH)
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 Presented here are NOEMA interferometric observations of the neighboring hot cores W3(H _2 O) and W3(OH). The presence of two star-forming cores at different evolutionary stages within the same parent cloud presents a unique opportunity to study how the ...

Masers in Star Forming Regions [PDF]
Symposium - International Astronomical Union, 1987 OH and H2O masers in star forming regions are important because they are readily detectable indicators of star formation and because they provide unique information on the kinematics and physical conditions in high density regions (106 – 1010 cm−3) surrounding young stars, regions which cannot be studied by other means at present.

Explaining the Chemical Inventory of Orion KL through Machine Learning
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 The interplay of the chemistry and physics that exists within astrochemically relevant sources can only be fully appreciated if we can gain a holistic understanding of their chemical inventories. Previous work by Lee et al.
