Detailed Picture of an Embedded High - mass YSO
نویسندگان
چکیده
High-mass star formation is not well understood chiefly because examples are deeply embedded, relatively distant, and crowded with sources of emission. Using VLA and VLBA observations of H 2 O and SiO maser emission, we have mapped in detail the structure and proper motion of material 20–500 AU from the closest high-mass YSO, radio source I in the Orion KL region. We observe streams of material driven in a rotating, wide angle, bipolar wind from the the surface of an edge-on accretion disk. The example of source I provides strong evidence that high-mass star formation proceeds via accretion.

متن کاملThe Dense Molecular Cores in the IRAS 21391+5802 region
We present a detailed kinematical study and modeling of the emission of the molecular cores at ambient velocities surrounding IRAS 21391+5802, an intermediate-mass protostar embedded in IC 1396N. The high-density gas emission is found in association with three dense cores associated with the YSOs BIMA 1, BIMA 2, and BIMA 3. The CS (J=5→4) and CH3OH (J=5−1 →4−1) emission around BIMA 1 has been m...
متن کاملEmbedded Star Formation in the Eagle Nebula with Spitzer/glimpse
We present new Spitzer photometry of the Eagle Nebula (M16, containing the optical cluster NGC 6611) combined with near-infrared photometry from 2MASS. We use dust radiative transfer models, mid-infrared and near-infrared color-color analysis, and mid-infrared spectral indices to analyze point source spectral energy distributions, select candidate young stellar objects (YSOs), and constrain the...
متن کاملHigh - resolution NIR Observations of the Circumstellar Disk System in the Bok Globule CB 26 1
We report on results of near-infrared and optical observations of the mm disk embedded in the Bok globule CB 26 (Launhardt & Sargent 2001). The near-infrared images show a bipolar reflection nebula with a central extinction lane which coincides with the mm disk. Imaging polarimetry of this object yielded a polarization pattern which is typical for a young stellar object surrounded by a large ci...
متن کاملA multiwavelength picture of the AFGL 5142 star - formingregionTodd
We present molecular line, H 2 O maser, radio continuum and near infrared maps of the bipolar outtow source AFGL 5142. The high resolution of our molecular CO observations enables us to deene the morphology of the large-scale bipolar outtow into a two lobe structure extending for 2 0 on each side of the center. In the perpendicular direction, we nd consistent evidence for a second, more compact...
