- Description:
- The Chandra Deep Field (CDF)-S is the deepest X-ray image available and will remain so for the near future. We provide a spectroscopic (64.5%; 64% with spectral classifications) and photometric redshift catalog for the full 7Ms sample, but much of our analysis focuses on the central (off-axis angles <5.7') region, which contains a large, faint ALMA sample of 75 >4.5{sigma} 850{mu}m sources. We measure the 850{mu}m fluxes at the X-ray positions using the ALMA images, where available, or an ultradeep SCUBA-2 map. We find that the full X-ray sample produces ~10% of the 850{mu}m extragalactic background light. We separate the submillimeter-detected X-ray sources into star-forming galaxies and active galactic nuclei (AGNs) using a star formation rate (SFR) versus X-ray luminosity calibration for high-SFR galaxies. We confirm this separation using the X-ray photon indices. We measure the X-ray fluxes at the accurate positions of the 75 ALMA sources and detect 70% at >3{sigma} in either the 0.5-2 or 2-7keV bands. However, many of these may produce both their X-ray and submillimeter emission by star formation. Indeed, we find that only 20% of the ALMA sources have intermediate X-ray luminosities (rest-frame 8-28 keV luminosities of 10^42.5^-10^44^erg/s), and none has a high X-ray luminosity (>10^44^erg/s). Conversely, after combining the CDF-S with the CDF-N, we find extreme star formation (SFR>300M_{sun}_/yr) in some intermediate X-ray luminosity sources but not in any high X-ray luminosity sources. We argue that the quenching of star formation in the most luminous AGNs may be a consequence of the clearing of gas in these sources.

- Description:
- We have conducted a survey of young single and multiple systems in the Taurus-Auriga star-forming region with the Atacama Large Millimeter Array (ALMA), substantially improving both the spatial resolution and sensitivity with which individual protoplanetary disks in these systems have been observed. These ALMA observations can resolve binary separations as small as 25-30au and have an average 3{sigma} detection level of 0.35mJy, equivalent to a disk mass of 4x10^-5^M_{sun}_ for an M3 star. Our sample was constructed from stars that have an infrared excess and/or signs of accretion and have been classified as Class II. For the binary and higher-order multiple systems observed, we detect {lambda}=1.3mm continuum emission from one or more stars in all of our target systems. Combined with previous surveys of Taurus, our 21 new detections increase the fraction of millimeter-detected disks to over 75% in all categories of stars (singles, primaries, and companions) earlier than spectral type M6 in the Class II sample. Given the wealth of other information available for these stars, this has allowed us to study the impact of multiplicity with a much larger sample. While millimeter flux and disk mass are related to stellar mass as seen in previous studies, we find that both primary and secondary stars in binary systems with separations of 30-4200au have lower values of millimeter flux as a function of stellar mass than single stars. We also find that for these systems, the circumstellar disk around the primary star does not dominate the total disk mass in the system and contains on average 62% of the total mass.

- Description:
- Circumstellar environments of oxygen-rich stars are among the strongest SiO maser emitters. Physical processes such as collisions, infrared pumping, and overlaps favor the inversion of level population and produce maser emission at different vibrational states. Despite numerous observational and theoretical efforts, we still do not have a unified picture including all of the physical processes involved in SiO maser emission. The aim of this work is to provide homogeneous data in a large sample of oxygen-rich stars. We present a survey of 67 oxygen-rich stars from 7 to 1mm, in their rotational transitions from J=1-0 to J=5-4, for vibrational numbers v from 0 to 6 in the three main SiO isotopologs. We have used one of the 34 m NASA antennas at Robledo and the IRAM 30m radio telescope. The first tentative detection of a v=6 line is reported, as well as the detection of new maser lines. The highest vibrational levels seem confined to small volumes, presumably close to the stars. The J=1-0, v=2 line flux is greater than the corresponding v=1 in almost half of the sample, which may confirm a predicted dependence on the pulsation cycle. This database is potentially useful in models which should consider most of the physical agents, time dependency, and mass-loss rates. As a by-product, we report detections of 27 thermal rotational lines from other molecules, including isotopologs of SiS, H_2_S, SO, SO_2_, and NaCl.

- SVS13-A Class I IRAM-NOEMA images
- Short Name:
- J/A+A/654/A52
- Date:

- Description:
- Recent results in astrochemistry have revealed that some molecules, such as interstellar complex organic species and deuterated species, can serve as valuable tools in the investigation of star-forming regions. Sulphuretted species can also be used to follow the chemical evolution of the early stages of a Sun-like star formation process. The goal is to obtain a census of S-bearing species using interferometric images towards SVS13-A, a Class I object associated with a hot corino that is rich in interstellar complex organic molecules. To this end, we used the NGC1333 SVS13-A data at 3mm and 1.4mm obtained with the IRAM-NOEMA interferometer in the framework of the SOLIS (Seeds of Life in Space) Large Program. The line emission of S-bearing species was imaged and analyzed using local thermodynamic equilibrium (LTE) and large velocity gradient (LVG) approaches. We imaged the spatial distribution on <=300au scale of the line emission of ^32^SO, ^34^SO, C^32^S, C^34^S, C^33^S, OCS, H_2_C^32^S, H_2_C^34^S, and NS. The low excitation (9K) ^32^SO line traces: (i) the low-velocity SVS13-A outflow and (ii) the fast (up to 100km/s away from the systemic velocity) collimated jet driven by the nearby SVS13-B Class 0 object. Conversely, the rest of the lines are confined in the inner SVS13-A region, where complex organics were previously imaged.More specifically, the non-LTE LVG analysis of SO, SO_2_, and H_2_CS indicates a hot corino origin (size in the 60-120au range). Temperatures between 50K and 300K, as well as volume densities larger than 10^5^cm^-3^ have been derived. The abundances of the sulphuretted are in the following ranges: 0.3-6x10^-6^ (CS), 7x10^-9^-1x10^-7^ (SO), 1-10x10^-7^ (SO_2_), a few 10^-10^ (H_2_CS and OCS), and 10^-10^-10^-9^ (NS). The N(NS)/N(NS+) ratio is larger than 10, supporting the assessment that the NS+ ion is mainly formed in the extended envelope. The [H_2_CS]/[H_2_CO] ratio, once measured at high-spatial resolutions, increases with time (from Class 0 to Class II objects) by more than one order of magnitude (from <=10^-2^ to a few 10^-1^). This suggests that [S]/[O] changes along the process of Sun-like star formation. Finally, the estimate of the [S]/[H] budget in SVS13-A is 2%-17% of the Solar System value (1.8x10^-5^), which is consistent with what was previously measured towards Class 0 objects (1%-8%). This finding supports the notion that the enrichment of the sulphuretted species with respect to dark clouds remains constant from the Class 0 to the Class I stages of lowmass star formation. The present findings stress the importance of investigating the chemistry of star-forming regions using large observational surveys as well as sampling regions on the scale of the Solar System.

- Description:
- We study the star-forming regions in the spiral galaxy NGC 4321 (M100). We take advantage of the spatial resolution (2.5-arcsec full width at half-maximum) of the Swift/Ultraviolet/Optical Telescope camera and the availability of three ultraviolet (UV) passbands in the region 1600<{lambda}<3000{AA}, in combination with optical and infrared (IR) imaging from Sloan Digital Sky Survey, KPNO/H{alpha} and Spitzer/IRAC, to obtain a catalogue of 787 star-forming regions out to three disc scalelengths. We use a large volume of star formation histories, combined with stellar population synthesis, to determine the properties of the young stellar component and its relationship with the spiral arms.

- Description:
- We report 885 {mu}m ALMA continuum flux densities for 24 Taurus members spanning the stellar/substellar boundary with spectral types from M4 to M7.75. Of the 24 systems, 22 are detected at levels ranging from 1.0 to 55.7 mJy. The two nondetections are transition disks, though other transition disks in the sample are detected. Converting ALMA continuum measurements to masses using standard scaling laws and radiative transfer modeling yields dust mass estimates ranging from ~0.3 to 20 M_{Earth}_. The dust mass shows a declining trend with central object mass when combined with results from submillimeter surveys of more massive Taurus members. The substellar disks appear as part of a continuous sequence and not a distinct population. Compared to older Upper Sco members with similar masses across the substellar limit, the Taurus disks are brighter and more massive. Both Taurus and Upper Sco populations are consistent with an approximately linear relationship in M_dust_ to M_star_, although derived power-law slopes depend strongly upon choices of stellar evolutionary model and dust temperature relation. The median disk around early-M stars in Taurus contains a comparable amount of mass in small solids as the average amount of heavy elements in Kepler planetary systems on short-period orbits around M-dwarf stars, with an order of magnitude spread in disk dust mass about the median value. Assuming a gas-to-dust ratio of 100:1, only a small number of low-mass stars and brown dwarfs have a total disk mass amenable to giant planet formation, consistent with the low frequency of giant planets orbiting M dwarfs.

- Description:
- We report on the first 1432 sources observed using the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array, from the Bulge Asymmetries and Dynamical Evolution survey, which aims to obtain tens of thousands of line-of-sight velocities from SiO masers in Asymptotic Giant Branch (AGB) stars in the Milky Way. A 71% detection rate of 86GHz SiO masers is obtained from the infrared color-selected sample and increases to 80% when considering the likely oxygen-rich stars using Midcourse Space Experiment colors isolated in a region where [D]-[E]<=1.38. Based on Galactic distributions, the presence of extended CS emission, and likely kinematic associations, the population of sources with [D]-[E]>1.38 probably consists of young stellar objects, or alternatively, of planetary nebulae. For the SiO detections, we examined whether individual SiO transitions provide comparable stellar line-of-sight velocities and found that any SiO transition is suitable for determining a stellar AGB line-of-sight velocity. Finally, we discuss the relative SiO detection rates and line strengths in the context of current pumping models.

- Description:
- We present the results of a Green Bank Telescope survey of NH_3_(1,1), (2,2), (3,3) lines toward 631 Bolocam Galactic Plane Survey (BGPS) sources at a range of Galactic longitudes in the inner Galaxy. We have detected the NH_3_(1,1) line toward 72% of our targets (456), demonstrating that the high column density features identified in the BGPS and other continuum surveys accurately predict the presence of dense gas. We have determined kinematic distances and resolved the distance ambiguity for all BGPS sources detected in NH_3_. The BGPS sources trace the locations of the Scutum and Sagittarius spiral arms, with the number of sources peaking between R_Gal_~4 and 5kpc. We measure the physical properties of each source and find that depending on the distance, BGPS sources are primarily clumps, with some cores and clouds. Forty-eight percent of our sample should be forming stars (including massive stars) with high efficiency, and 87% contain subregions that should be efficiently forming stars. Indeed, we find that 67% of the sample exhibit signs of star formation activity based on an association with a mid-infrared source.

- Description:
- Planetary cores are thought to form in proto-planetary disks via the growth of dusty solid material. However, it is unclear how early this process begins. We study the physical structure and grain growth in the edge-on disk that surrounds the ~1Myr old low-mass (~0.55M_{sun}_) protostar embedded in the Bok Globule CB26 to examine how much grain growth has already occurred in the protostellar phase. We combine the SED between 0.9um and 6.4cm with high angular resolution continuum maps at 1.3, 2.9, and 8.1mm, and use the radiative transfer code RADMC-3D to conduct a detailed modelling of the dust emission from the disk and envelope of CB 26. We infer inner and outer disk radii of around 16au and 172+/-22au, respectively. The total gas mass in the disk is ~0.076M_{sun}_, which amounts to ~14% of the mass of the central star. The inner disk contains a compact free-free emission region, which could be related to either a jet or a photoevaporation region. The thermal dust emission from the outer disk is optically thin at mm wavelengths, while the emission from the inner disk midplane is moderately optically thick. Our best-fit radiative transfer models indicate that the dust grains in the disk have already grown to pebbles with diameters of the order of 10cm in size. Residual 8.1mm emission suggests the presence of even larger particles in the inner disk. For the optically thin mm dust emission from the outer disk, we derive a mean opacity slope of {beta}_mm_~=0.7+/-0.4, which is consistent with the presence of large dust grains. The presence of cm-sized bodies in the CB 26 disk indicates that solids grow rapidly already during the first million years in a protostellar disk. It is thus possible that Class II disks are already seeded with large particles and may contain even planetesimals.
