We made a detailed observational analysis of a well known hot molecular core lying in the high-mass star-forming region G31.41+0.31. This core is believed to contain deeply embedded massive stars and presents a velocity gradient that has…
We present a study of molecular outflows using six molecular lines (including 12CO/13CO/C18O/HCO+(J = 1-0) and SiO/CS(J = 2-1)) toward nine nearby high-mass star-forming regions with accurate known distances. This work is based on the…
CRL 618 is a well-studied pre-planetary nebula. It has multiple highly collimated optical lobes, fast molecular outflows along the optical lobes, and an extended molecular envelope that consists of a dense torus in the equator and a tenuous…
Gaseous outflows are key phenomena in the evolution of galaxies, as they affect star formation (either positively or negatively), eject gas from the core or disk, and directly cause mixing of pristine and processed material. Active outflows…
Central molecular outflows in spiral galaxies are assumed to modulate their host galaxy's star formation rate by removing gas from the inner region of the galaxy. Outflows consisting of different gas phases appear to be a common feature in…
Recent interferometric observations have called into question the traditional view of the Orion-KL region, which displays one of the most well-defined cases of chemical differentiation in a star-forming region. Previous, lower-resolution…
ALMA imaging of the cold molecular medium in the nearby starburst galaxy NGC 1808 is presented. The observations reveal the distribution of molecular gas, traced by $^{12}$CO (1-0) and $^{12}$CO (3-2), and continuum (93 and 350 GHz) across…
We present single pointing observations of SiO, HCO$^+$ and H$^{13}$CO$^+$ from the James Clerk Maxwell Telescope towards 23 massive star forming regions previously known to contain molecular outflows and ultracompact HII regions. We…
We present the results of a high resolution study with the Submillimeter Array towards the massive star forming complex G9.62+0.19. Three sub-mm cores are detected in this region. The masses are 13, 30 and 165 M$_{\sun}$ for the northern,…
The bipolar outflow from the massive star forming cluster in DR21 is one of the most powerful known, and in IRAC images the outflow stands out by virtue of its brightness at 4.5 um (Band 2). Indeed, IRAC images of many galactic and…
We have observed the central region of the IR-dark cloud filament associated with IRAS 18507+0121 at millimeter wavelengths in CO(1-0), 13CO(1-0), and C18O(1-0) line emission and with the Spitzer Space Telescope at mid-IR wavelengths. Five…
We present the results of mapping observations toward an outflow-shocked region, OMC-2 FIR 4 using the Nobeyama 45-m telescope. We observed the area in $^{13}$CO ($J=1-0$), C$^{18}$O ($J=1-0$), N$_2$H$^+$ ($J=1-0$), CCS ($J_N=8_7-7_6$),…
We report the first detection and high angular resolution (1.8" $\times$ 1.1") imaging of acetic acid (CH$_3$COOH) and gGg$^{\prime}$--ethylene glycol (gGg$^{\prime}$(CH$_2$OH)$_2$) towards the Orion Kleinmann--Low nebula. The observations…
We report the first detection of a hot molecular core outside our Galaxy based on radio observations with ALMA toward a high-mass young stellar object (YSO) in a nearby low metallicity galaxy, the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC). Molecular…
We present high angular resolution VLA and BIMA observations of NH$_3$, HCO$^+$, HCN and SO molecular emission and 1.4, 3.5 and 7 mm continuum emission toward the exciting source of the HH~80-81 system. This object is one of the few massive…
We explore the origin of fast molecular outflows that have been observed in Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN). Previous numerical studies have shown that it is difficult to create such an outflow by accelerating existing molecular clouds in the…

The feedback from galactic outflows is thought to play an important role in shaping the gas content, star formation history, and ultimately the stellar mass function of galaxies. Here we present evidence for massive molecular outflows…
