Molecular outflows in the form of wide-angle winds and/or well-collimated jets are associated with young stellar objects of all luminosities. Independent studies have established that the mass outflow rate is proportional to L_bol^0.6 for…

We have mapped the ultracompact HII region, G5.89-0.39, and its molecular surroundings with the Submillimeter Array at 2".8 x 1".8 angular resolution in 1.3 mm continuum, SiO(5-4), and eight other molecular lines. We have resolved for the…

Previous observations show that the hypercompact HII region W51e2 is surrounded by a massive molecular accretion flow centered on the HII region. New observations of the H53alpha radio recombination line made with the VLA at 0.45 arc second…

The process of massive star formation is tightly connected with the appearance of molecular outflows, which interact with surrounding interstellar medium and can be used as a proxy to study the accretion process of material onto forming…

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 formation process of high-mass stars (>8M$_\odot$) is poorly constrained, particularly, the effects of clump fragmentation creating multiple systems and the mechanism of mass accretion onto the cores. We study the fragmentation of dense…

We use ALMA CO(1-0) observations and VLT/MUSE rest-frame optical data of the ultraluminous infrared galaxy (ULIRG) IRAS20100-4156 at $z=0.1297$ to characterize its powerful outflow in multiple phases using tracers of cold molecular,…

We present a multi-wavelength study of the region towards the GM 2-4 nebula and the nearby source IRAS 05373+2340. Our near-infrared H2 1-0 S(1) line observations reveal various shock-excited features which are part of several bipolar…

We present an observational study towards the young high-mass star forming region G23.44-0.18 using the Submillimeter Array. Two massive, radio-quiet dusty cores MM1 and MM2 are observed in 1.3 mm continuum emission and dense molecular gas…

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 present a comprehensive study on the physical and chemical structures of a chemically rich bipolar outflow in a high-mass star forming region IRAS 16272$-$4837 (SDC335), utilizing high-resolution spectral line data at 1.3 mm and 3 mm…

Young stellar objects are thought to commonly undergo sudden accretion events that result in a rise in bolometric luminosity. These outbursts likely coincide with the onset of planet formation, and could impact the formation of planets. The…

Intermediate mass protostarsprovide a bridge between theories of low- and high-mass star formation. Emerging molecular outflows can be used to determine the influence of fragmentation and multiplicity on protostellar evolution through the…

Near-infrared imaging of the emission from molecular hydrogen is a powerful method for discovering outflows in star-forming regions. We present new near-infrared images, long slit and integral field spectroscopy of the ultra-compact HII…
