We present a catalogue of prestellar and starless cores within the Corona Australis molecular cloud using photometric data from the Herschel Space Observatory. At a distance of d~130 pc, Corona Australis is one of the closest star-forming…

We present sensitive high angular resolution ($\sim$ 1$"$) millimeter continuum and line observations from the massive star forming region DR21(OH) located in the Cygnus X molecular cloud. Within the well-known dusty MM1-2 molecular cores,…

We report the Australian Telescope Compact Array and Nobeyama 45 m telescope detection of a remarkably bright $S_\mathrm{1.1mm}$ = 44 mJy) submillimeter galaxy MM J154506.4-344318 in emission lines at 48.5 and 97.0 GHz, respectively. We…

We present the results of our ALMA observations of the dense molecular HCN J=4-3 and HCO$^{+}$ J=4-3 lines at $\lesssim$1 pc ($\lesssim$14 mas) resolution in the nuclear region of the nearby ($\sim$14 Mpc) well-studied AGN NGC 1068. Both…

Context. Outflows and jets are the first signposts of ongoing star formation processes in any molecular cloud, yet their study in optical bands provides limited results due to the large extinction present. Near-infrared unbiased wide-field…

Dark areas around active regions (ARs) have been first observed in chromospheric lines more than a century ago and are now associated to the H{\alpha} fibril vortex around ARs. Nowadays, large areas surrounding ARs with reduced emission…
