Locating of massive protostars
NGC 7538 is known to host a 6.7 and 12.2 GHz methanol maser cospatial with a Ultra Compact (UC) H region,
متن کاملThe gas / solid methane abundance ratio toward deeply embedded protostars ?
We present the detection of ro-vibrational absorption lines of the deformation mode of gaseous CH 4 toward the massive protostars W 33A, and NGC 7538 : IRS9, using the SWS spectrometer on board of the Infrared Space Observatory. The observed lines indicate that the CH 4 gas is warm (T ∼ 90 K), and has a low abundance (∼ 4 10 −7). The CH 4 ice in these lines of sight is embedded in a polar matri...
متن کاملCold gas as an ice diagnostic toward low mass protostars
Context. Up to 90% of the chemical reactions during star formation occurs on ice surfaces, probably including the formation of complex organics. Only the most abundant ice species are however observed directly by infrared spectroscopy. Aims. This study aims to develop an indirect observational method of ices based on non-thermal ice desorption in the colder part of protostellar envelopes. Metho...
متن کاملBinary Capture Rates for Massive Protostars
The high multiplicity of massive stars in dense, young clusters is established early in their evolution. The mechanism behind this remains unresolved. Recent results suggest that massive protostars may capture companions through disk interactions with much higher efficiency than their solar mass counterparts. However, this conclusion is based on analytic determinations of capture rates and esti...
متن کاملMassive protostars as gamma-ray sources
Context. Massive protostars have associated bipolar outflows with velocities of hundreds of km s. Such outflows can produce strong shocks when interact with the ambient medium leading to regions of non-thermal radio emission. Aims. We aim at exploring under which conditions relativistic particles are accelerated at the terminal shocks of the protostellar jets and can produce significant gamma-r...
