We report the discovery of 45 compact hub-filament systems (HFSs; median size $\sim$2.4 pc) in infrared-dark clouds (IRDCs) in the W33 complex, located at the junction of the Scutum and Norma spiral arms. Using {\it Spitzer} 8 and 24…

To investigate the star formation process, we present a multi-wavelength study of a massive star-forming site RAFGL 5085, which has been associated with the molecular outflow, HII region, and near-infrared cluster. The continuum images at…

We present the results from an analysis of deep Herschel far-infrared observations of the edge-on disk galaxy NGC 3079. The PSF-cleaned PACS images at 100 and 160 um display a 25 kpc x 25 kpc X-shape structure centered on the nucleus that…

To probe the star formation (SF) process, we present a multi-wavelength study of IRAS 05480+2545 (hereafter I05480+2545). Analysis of Herschel data reveals a massive clump (M_clump ~ 1875 Msun; peak N(H_2) ~ 4.8 x 10^{22} cm^{-2}; A_V ~ 51…

We uncover a hub-filament system associated with massive star formation in the G083.097$+$03.270. Diagnosed with simultaneous $^{12}$CO, $^{13}$CO, and C$^{18}$O line observations, the region is found to host two distinct and elongated…

Hub-filament systems (HFSs) are potential sites of massive star formation (MSF). To understand the role of filaments in MSF and the origin of HFSs, we conducted a multi-scale and multi-wavelength observational investigation of the molecular…

[Abridged] Filaments and hubs have received special attention recently thanks to studies showing their role in star formation. While the column density and velocity structures of both filaments and hubs have been studied, their magnetic…

We present a multiwavelength investigation of the hub-filament system RCW 117 (IRAS 17059-4132), which shows intricate filamentary features in the far-infrared, mapped using Herschel images. We obtain the column density and dust temperature…

We have conducted deep JHKs imaging polarimetry of a ~8' x 8' area of the NGC 2071 star forming region. Our polarization data have revealed various infrared reflection nebulae (IRNe) associated with the central IR young star cluster…

We present a multi-wavelength study of the massive protocluster G286.21+0.17 (G286) using \emph{JWST} near-infrared imaging and ALMA H$^{13}$CO$^{+}$(1--0) observations. The \emph{JWST} images uncover a compact ($\sim$0.5 pc) hub-filament…

High-mass stars and star clusters commonly form within hub-filament systems. Monoceros R2, harbors one of the closest such systems, making it an excellent target for case studies. We investigate the morphology, stability and dynamical…

We present diffraction-limited IR images at 11.2 and 20.5 microns of the central 6''x6'' region in NGC 1068, collected with the CAMIRAS instrument mounted at the f/36 IR focus of the CFHT/Hawaii 3.6m telescope and at the f/35 IR focus of…

We performed a large-scale mapping observation toward the W33 complex and its surroundings, covering an area of $1.3^\circ \times 1.0^\circ$ , in $^{12}$CO (1-0), $^{13}$CO (1-0), and C$^{18}$O (1-0) lines from the Purple Mountain…

In this study, we examine three cluster-forming hub-filament systems (HFS) - W3(OH), W3 Main, and S 106 - spanning evolutionary stages from early to advanced, with a focus on their magnetic field (B-field) structures and filament line-mass…

Polarized dust emission is a key tracer in the study of interstellar medium and of star formation. The observed polarization, however, is a product of magnetic field structure, dust grain properties and grain alignment efficiency, as well…

We present the results of combined NH3(1,1) and (2,2) line emission observed with the Very Large Array and the Effelsberg 100m telescope of the Infrared Dark Cloud G14.225-0.506. The NH3 emission reveals a network of filaments constituting…

We present new aperture synthesis CO maps of the Antennae (NGC 4038/39) obtained with the Caltech Millimeter Array. These sensitive images show molecular emission associated with the two nuclei and a partial ring of star formation to the…

[Abridged] We present Gemini-North GMOS/IFU observations of a young star cluster (cluster 10) and its environment near the centre of the dwarf irregular starburst galaxy NGC 1569. This forms part of a larger and on-going study of the…

Aims: We characterise the properties of stars, dust, and gas and their spatial distribution in the central region of the Seyfert 2 galaxy NGC1068. Method: Our study is based on near-infrared (YJH, 0.95-1.650 um, R=350) long-slit…

A deep, continuum-subtracted, image of NGC 7293 has been obtained in the light of the Halpha+[N II] emission lines. New images of two filamentary halo stuctures have been obtained and the possible detection of a collimated outflow made.…
