- Description:
- Temperature is a crucial parameter in circumstellar disk evolution and planet formation because it governs the resistance of the gas to gravitational instability and sets the chemical composition of the planet-forming material. We set out to determine the gas temperature of the young disk-like structure around the Class 0 protostar IRAS 16293-2422A. We used Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) observations of multiple H_2_CS J=7-6 and J=10-9 lines from the Protostellar Interferometric Line Survey (PILS) to create a temperature map for the inner ~200AU of the disk-like structure. This molecule is a particularly useful temperature probe because transitions between energy levels with different K_a quantum numbers operate only through collisions. Based on the H_2_CS line ratios, the temperature is between ~100-175K in the inner ~150AU, and drops to ~75K at ~200AU. At the current resolution (0.5"~70AU), no jump is seen in the temperature at the disk-envelope interface. The temperature structure derived from H_2_CS is consistent with envelope temperature profiles that constrain the temperature from 1000AU scales down to ~100AU, but does not follow the temperature rise seen in these profiles at smaller radii. Higher angular resolution observations of optically thin temperature tracers are needed to establish whether cooling by gas-phase water, the presence of a putative disk, or the dust optical depth influences the gas temperature at <~100AU scales. The temperature at 100AU is higher in IRAS 16293A than in the embedded Class 0/I disk L1527, consistent with the higher luminosity of the former.

- Description:
- A fraction of the missing sulfur in dense clouds and circumstellar regions could be in the form of three species not yet detected in the interstellar medium: H_2_S_2_, HS_2_, and S_2_ according to experimental simulations performed under astrophysically relevant conditions. These S-S bonded molecules can be formed by the energetic processing of H_2_S-bearing ice mantles on dust grains, and subsequently desorb to the gas phase. The detection of these species could partially solve the sulfur depletion problem, and would help to improve our knowledge of the poorly known chemistry of sulfur in the interstellar medium. To this purpose we calculated the frequencies and expected intensities of the rotational transitions not previously reported, and performed dedicated ground-based observations toward the low-mass warm core IRAS 16293-2422, a region with one of the highest measured gas-phase H_2_S abundances. Observations in the submillimeter regime were obtained with the APEX 12m telescope during 15h of observation. A total of ~16GHz were covered in a range of about 100GHz, targeting a wide selection of the predicted rotational transitions of the three molecules.

- Description:
- Aims. We report the investigation results of the structure and content of a molecular cloud surrounding the source IRAS 05168+3634 (also known as Mol 9). Methods. We present a photometric analysis using the data of J, H, K UKIDSS, [3.6], [4.5]{mu}m Spitzer-IRAC and 3.4, 4.6, 12, 22{mu}m WISE databases. A multi-color criteria was used to identify the candidates of young stellar objects (YSOs) in the molecular cloud; in addition to IRAS 05168+3634, there are four IRAS sources embedded in the same molecular cloud. Color-magnitude diagrams and the K luminosity function (KLF) were used to determine the basic parameters of stellar objects (spectral classes, masses, ages). To study the YSOs with longer wavelength photometry the radiative transfer models were used. Results. Based on color-color and color-magnitude diagrams, we identified a rich population of embedded YSO candidates with infrared excess (Class 0/I and Class II) and their characteristics in a quite large molecular cloud located in a region of 24 arcmin radius. The molecular cloud includes 240 candidates of YSOs within the radii of subregions around five IRAS sources. The local distribution of identified YSOs in the molecular cloud frequently shows elongation and subclustering. The observed young subregions and parental molecular cloud morphologies are similar, especially when only the youngest Class I/0 sources are considered. The color-magnitude diagrams of the subregions suggest a very young stellar population. We construct the KLF of the subregions except for the IRAS 05162+3639 region and it shows unusually low values for {alpha} slope: 0.12-0.21. According to the values of the slopes of the KLFs, the age of the subregions can be estimated at 0.1-3Myr. The spectral energy distributions (SEDs) are constructed for 45 Class I and 75 Class II evolutionary stage YSOs and the received parameters of these YSOs are well correlated with the results obtained by other methods. According to the results of SED fitting tool, the sources IRAS 05184+3635, IRAS 05177+3636, and IRAS 05162+3639 can be classified as Class I evolutionary stage objects. IRAS 05168+3634 and IRAS 05156+3643 can be classified as flat-spectrum objects.

- Description:
- We study the small-scale structure of massive star-forming regions through interferometric observations in several (sub)mm wavelength bands. We determine the kinetic temperature of the gas around the protostars, and derive the column density of several molecular species. For two of the protostars, constrains on the density are also inferred.

- Description:
- A procedure of sampling objects by way of cross-identification of the low-frequency radio catalogue of objects obtained with the aid of the Texas interferometer at the frequency 365MHz and of the IRAS (Cat. <II/125>) catalogue is discussed. Statistical properties of different subsamples of sources are investigated. From the results of cross-identification with the radio catalogues of the database CATS (Verkhodanov et al., 1997BaltA...6..275V), continuous radio spectra of objects are plotted, identification with optical and X-ray catalogues is carried out. From the steep spectrum objects sources are selected for further studies.

- Description:
- Recent XMM-Newton observations have revealed that IRAS 17020+4544 is a very unusual example of black hole windproduced feedback by a moderately luminous AGN in a spiral galaxy. Since the source is known for being a radio emitter, we investigated about the presence and the properties of a non-thermal component. We observed IRAS 17020+4544 with the Very Long Baseline Array at 5, 8, 15, and 24GHz within a month of the 2014 XMM-Newton observations. We further analysed archival data taken in 2000 and 2012. Results. We detect the source at 5GHz and on short baselines at 8GHz. At 15 and 24 GHz, the source is below our baseline sensitivity for fringe fitting, indicating the lack of prominent compact features. The morphology is that of an asymmetric double, with significant diffuse emission. The spectrum between 5 and 8GHz is rather steep (S{nu}~nu^-(1.0+/-0.2)^). Our re-analysis of the archival data at 5 and 8GHz provides results consistent with the new observations, suggesting that flux density and structural variability are not important in this source. We put a limit on the separation speed between the main components of <0.06c. IRAS 17020+4544 shows interesting features of several classes of objects: its properties are typical of compact steep spectrum sources, low power compact sources, radio-emitting narrow line Seyfert 1 galaxies. However, it can not be classified in any of these categories, remaining so far a one-of-a-kind object.

- Description:
- Carbonaceous nanograins are present at the surface of protoplanetary disks around Herbig Ae/Be stars, where most of the ultraviolet energy from the central star is dissipated. Efficiently coupled to the gas, they are unavoidable to understand the physics and chemistry of these disks. Furthermore, nanograins are able to trace the outer flaring parts of the disk and possibly the gaps from which the larger grains are missing. However, their evolution through the disks, from internal to external regions, is only poorly understood so far. Our aim is to examine the spatial distribution and evolution of the nanodust emission in the emblematic (pre-)transitional protoplanetary disk HD 100546. This disk shows many structures (annular gaps, rings, and spirals) and reveals very rich carbon nanodust spectroscopic signatures (aromatic, aliphatic) in a wide spatial range of the disk (~20-200au). We analysed adaptive optics spectroscopic observations in the 3-4um range (angular resolution of ~0.1") and imaging and spectroscopic observations in the 8-12um range (angular resolution of ~0.3"). The hyperspectral cube was decomposed into a sum of spatially coherent dust components using a Gaussian decomposition algorithm. We compared the data to model predictions using the heterogeneous dust evolution model for interstellar solids (THEMIS), which is integrated in the radiative transfer code POLARIS by calculating the thermal and stochastic heating of micro- and nanometre-sized dust grains for a given disk structure. We find that the aromatic features at 3.3, 8.6, and 11.3um, and the aliphatic features between 3.4 and 3.5um are spatially extended; each band shows a specific morphology dependent on the local physical conditions. The aliphatic-to-aromatic band ratio, 3.4/3.3, increases with the distance from the star from ~0.2 (at 0.2" or 20au) to ~0.45 (at 1" or 100au), suggesting UV processing. In the 8-12um observed spectra, several features characteristic of aromatic particles and crystalline silicates are detected. Their relative contribution changes with the distance to the star. The model predicts that the features and adjacent continuum are due to different combinations of grain sub-populations, in most cases with a high dependence on the intensity of the UV field. The model reproduces the spatial emission profiles of the bands well, except for the inner 20-40au, where the observed emission of the 3.3 and 3.4um bands is, unlike the predictions, flat and no longer increases with the UV field. With our approach that combines observational data in the near- to mid-IR and disk modelling, we deliver constraints on the spatial distribution of nano-dust particles as a function of the disk structure and radiation field.

- IR-bright DOGs viewed with Subaru HSC

- Description:
- We report on the optical properties of infrared (IR)-bright dust-obscured galaxies (DOGs) that are defined as (i-[22])_AB_>=7.0. Because supermassive black holes (SMBHs) in IR-bright DOGs are expected to be rapidly growing in the major-merger scenario, they provide useful clues for understanding the coevolution of SMBHs and their host galaxies. However, the optical properties of IR-bright DOGs remain unclear because the optical emission of a DOG is very faint. By combining ~105deg^2^ images of the optical, near-IR, and mid-IR data obtained from the Subaru Hyper Suprime-Cam (HSC) survey, the VISTA VIKING survey, and the Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer all-sky survey, respectively, 571 IR-bright DOGs were selected. We found that IR-bright DOGs show a redder (g-z)_AB_ color than do other populations of dusty galaxies, such as ultraluminous IR galaxies (ULIRGs) at a similar redshift, with a significantly large dispersion. Among the selected DOGs, star formation (SF)-dominated DOGs show a relatively red color, while active galactic nucleus (AGN)-dominated DOGs show a rather blue color in optical. This result is consistent with the idea that the relative AGN contribution in the optical emission becomes more significant at a later stage in the major-merger scenario. We discovered eight IR-bright DOGs showing a significant blue excess in blue HSC bands. This blue excess can be interpreted as a leaked AGN emission that is either a directly leaking or a scattered AGN emission, as proposed for some blue-excess Hot DOGs in earlier studies.

- Description:
- We identify and explore the properties of an infrared-bright gamma-ray burst (GRB) host population. Candidate hosts are selected by coincidence with sources in WISE, with matching to random coordinates and a false alarm probability analysis showing that the contamination fraction is ~0.5. This methodology has already identified the host galaxy of GRB 080517. We combine survey photometry from Pan-STARRS, SDSS, APASS, 2MASS, GALEX, and WISE with our own WHT/ACAM and VLT/X-shooter observations to classify the candidates and identify interlopers. Galaxy SED fitting is performed using MAGPHYS, in addition to stellar template fitting, yielding 13 possible IR-bright hosts. A further seven candidates are identified from the previously published work. We report a candidate host for GRB 061002, previously unidentified as such. The remainder of the galaxies have already been noted as potential hosts. Comparing the IR-bright population properties including redshift z, stellar mass M*, star formation rate SFR, and V-band attenuation A_V_ to GRB host catalogues in the literature, we find that the infrared-bright population is biased towards low z, high M*, and high A_V_. This naturally arises from their initial selection - local and dusty galaxies are more likely to have the required IR flux to be detected in WISE. We conclude that while IR-bright GRB hosts are not a physically distinct class, they are useful for constraining existing GRB host populations, particularly for long GRBs.
