Context. This study is part of a large project to study the physics of accretion and molecular outflows towards a selected sample of high-mass star-forming regions that show evidence of infall and rotation from previous studies. Aims. We…
Using the ASTE 10 m submillimeter telescope and the 1.4 m Infrared Survey Facility (IRSF), we performed an extensive outflow survey in the Orion Molecular Cloud -2 and -3 region. Our survey, which includes 41 potential star-forming sites,…
The exploration of outflows in protobinary systems presents a challenging yet crucial endeavour, offering valuable insights into the dynamic interplay between protostars and their evolution. In this study, we examine the morphology and…
The formation of massive stars exceeding 10 solar masses usually results in large-scale molecular outflows. Numerical simulations, including ionization, of the formation of such stars show evidence for ionization-driven molecular outflows.…
Jets from young stellar objects provide insight into the workings of the beating heart at the centre of star forming cores. In some cases, multiple pulsed outflows are detected such as the atomic and molecular jets from a proposed binary…
We present near-IR (1.1-2.4 micron) position-position-velocity cubes of the 500-year-old Orion BN/KL explosive outflow with spatial resolution 1" and spectral resolution 86 km/s. We construct integrated intensity maps free of continuum…
We present wide-field near-infrared images of the DR21/W75 high-mass star forming region, obtained with the Wide Field Camera, WFCAM, on the United Kingdom Infrared Telescope. Broad-band JHK and narrow-band H2 1-0S(1) images are compared to…
We have carried out radiative transfer calculations of infalling, dusty envelopes surrounding embedded protostars to understand the observed properties of the recently identified ``Class 0'' sources. To match the far-infrared peaks in the…
We present Atacama Large Millimeter/sub-millimeter Array (ALMA) Cycle-2 observations of the HBC 494 molecular outflow and envelope. HBC 494 is an FU Ori-like object embedded in the Orion A cloud and is associated with the reflection nebulae…
We analyse the 2-dimensional distribution and kinematics of the stars as well as molecular and ionised gas in the central few hundred parsecs of 5 active and 5 matched inactive galaxies. The equivalent widths of the Br-gamma line indicate…
We report ALMA high-resolution observations of water emission lines $p-{\rm{H_2O}} (2_{02}-1_{11}$), $o-{\rm{H_2O}} (3_{21}-3_{12})$, $p-{\rm{H_2O}} (4_{22}-4_{13})$, in the strongly lensed galaxy HATLASJ113526.2-01460 at redshift z $\sim$…
We have searched the L1340 A, B, and C clouds for shocks from protostellar outflows using the H$_2$ 2.122 $\mu$m near-IR line as a shock tracer. Substantial outflow activity has been found in each of the three regions of the cloud (L1340 A,…
We study protostellar envelope and outflow evolution using Hubble Space Telescope NICMOS or WFC3 images of 304 protostars in the Orion Molecular clouds. These near-IR images resolve structures in the envelopes delineated by the scattered…
We observed the W51 high-mass star-forming complex with ALMA's longest-baseline configurations, achieving an angular resolution of $\sim$20 milliarcseconds, corresponding to a linear resolution of $\sim$100 au at $D_{\mathrm{W51}}=5.4$ kpc.…
We present two-dimensional hydrodynamical simulations of both jet- and wind-driven models for protostellar outflows in order to make detailed comparisons to the kinematics of observed molecular outflows. Comparing the different simulations…
We present a census of molecular outflows across four active regions of star formation in the Perseus molecular cloud (NGC 1333, IC348/HH211, L1448 and L1455), totalling an area of over 1000 sq arcmin. This is one of the largest surveys of…
We report observations of 47 candidate protostars in two optically thick lines (H2CO 212-111 and CS 2-1) and one optically thin line (N2H+ 1-0) using the IRAM 30-m, SEST 15-m, and Haystack 37-m radio telescopes. The sources were selected…
In this paper, we perform an analysis of 13 outflows in the Cygnus X star-forming region. We use the James Clerk Maxwell Telescope observations of $^{13}$CO(3-2) and C$^{18}$O(3-2) molecular emission lines combined with archival…
We present an outflow survey toward 20 Low Luminosity Objects (LLOs), namely protostars with an internal luminosity lower than 0.2 Lsun. Although a number of studies have reported the properties of individual LLOs, the reasons for their low…
Protostellar outflows display wide-angle winds and collimated jets, the magnetocentrifugal launching of which enables accretion onto the protostar. The majority of the outflow mass is likely ejected or entrained molecular H$_2$, which can…
