Here, we present the mass accumulation process in a hub-filament cloud G22 that is composed of four supercritical filaments. Velocity gradients detected along three filaments indicate that they are collapsing with a total mass infall rate of about 440 M e Myr −1 , suggesting the hub mass would be doubled in six free-fall times, adding up to ∼2 Myr. A fraction of the masses in the central clumps C1 and C2 can be accounted for through large-scale filamentary collapse. Ubiquitous blue profiles in HCO + (3–2) and 13 CO(3–2) spectra suggest a clump-scale collapse scenario in the most massive and densest clump C1. The estimated infall velocity and mass infall rate are 0.31 km s −1 and 7.2×10 −4 M e yr −1 , respectively. In clump C1, a hot molecular core (SMA1) is revealed by the Submillimeter Array observations and an outflow-driving high-mass protostar is located at the center of SMA1. The mass of the protostar is estimated to be 11–15 M e and it is still growing with an accretion rate of 7×10 −5 M e yr −1. The coexistent infall in filaments, clump C1, and the central hot core in G22 suggests that pre-assembled mass reservoirs (i.e., high-mass starless cores) may not be required to form high-mass stars. In the course of high-mass star formation, the central protostar, the core, and the clump can simultaneously grow in mass via core-fed/disk accretion, clump-fed accretion, and filamentary/cloud collapse.</div></div></div><ul class="InlineList u-ph0x u-fs13"><li class="InlineList-item logged_in_only"><div class="share_on_academia_work_button"><a class="academia_share Button Button--inverseBlue Button--sm js-bookmark-button" data-academia-share="Work/35538530" data-share-source="work_strip" data-spinner="small_white_hide_contents"><i class="fa fa-plus"></i><span class="work-strip-link-text u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Bookmark</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><div class="download"><a id="d30d93dceb6b50d68989eb301426b7d3" rel="nofollow" data-download="{"attachment_id":55404248,"asset_id":35538530,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false,"track":null,"button_location":"work_strip","source":null,"hide_modal":null}" class="Button Button--sm Button--inverseGreen js-download-button prompt_button doc_download" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/55404248/download_file?st=MTc0MDAzNDU3NCw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=work_strip"><i class="fa fa-arrow-circle-o-down fa-lg"></i><span class="u-textUppercase u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Download</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><ul class="InlineList InlineList--bordered u-ph0x"><li class="InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered"><span class="InlineList-item-text">by <span itemscope="itemscope" itemprop="author" itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a class="u-tcGrayDark u-fw700" data-has-card-for-user="66695878" href="https://gucas.academia.edu/jhyuannaoc">Jinghua Yuan</a><script data-card-contents-for-user="66695878" type="text/json">{"id":66695878,"first_name":"Jinghua","last_name":"Yuan","domain_name":"gucas","page_name":"jhyuannaoc","display_name":"Jinghua Yuan","profile_url":"https://gucas.academia.edu/jhyuannaoc?f_ri=24009","photo":"https://0.academia-photos.com/66695878/17364443/17484885/s65_jinghua.yuan.jpg"}</script></span></span></li><li class="js-paper-rank-work_35538530 InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered hidden"><span class="js-paper-rank-view hidden u-tcGrayDark" data-paper-rank-work-id="35538530"><i class="u-m1x fa fa-bar-chart"></i><strong class="js-paper-rank"></strong></span><script>$(function() { new Works.PaperRankView({ workId: 35538530, container: ".js-paper-rank-work_35538530", });

Here, we present the mass accumulation process in a hub-filament cloud G22 that is composed of four supercritical filaments. Velocity gradients detected along three filaments indicate that they are collapsing with a total mass infall rate of about 440 M e Myr −1 , suggesting the hub mass would be doubled in six free-fall times, adding up to ∼2 Myr. A fraction of the masses in the central clumps C1 and C2 can be accounted for through large-scale filamentary collapse. Ubiquitous blue profiles in HCO + (3–2) and 13 CO(3–2) spectra suggest a clump-scale collapse scenario in the most massive and densest clump C1. The estimated infall velocity and mass infall rate are 0.31 km s −1 and 7.2×10 −4 M e yr −1 , respectively. In clump C1, a hot molecular core (SMA1) is revealed by the Submillimeter Array observations and an outflow-driving high-mass protostar is located at the center of SMA1. The mass of the protostar is estimated to be 11–15 M e and it is still growing with an accretion rate of 7×10 −5 M e yr −1. The coexistent infall in filaments, clump C1, and the central hot core in G22 suggests that pre-assembled mass reservoirs (i.e., high-mass starless cores) may not be required to form high-mass stars. In the course of high-mass star formation, the central protostar, the core, and the clump can simultaneously grow in mass via core-fed/disk accretion, clump-fed accretion, and filamentary/cloud collapse.","downloadable_attachments":[{"id":55404248,"asset_id":35538530,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false}],"ordered_authors":[{"id":66695878,"first_name":"Jinghua","last_name":"Yuan","domain_name":"gucas","page_name":"jhyuannaoc","display_name":"Jinghua Yuan","profile_url":"https://gucas.academia.edu/jhyuannaoc?f_ri=24009","photo":"https://0.academia-photos.com/66695878/17364443/17484885/s65_jinghua.yuan.jpg"}],"research_interests":[{"id":4363,"name":"Star Formation","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Star_Formation?f_ri=24009","nofollow":true},{"id":24009,"name":"Star formation (Physics)","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Star_formation_Physics_?f_ri=24009","nofollow":true},{"id":70376,"name":"Massive Star Formation","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Massive_Star_Formation?f_ri=24009","nofollow":true},{"id":75789,"name":"Interstellar Medium and Star formation","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Interstellar_Medium_and_Star_formation?f_ri=24009","nofollow":true}]}, }) } })();</script></ul></li></ul></div></div><div class="u-borderBottom1 u-borderColorGrayLighter"><div class="clearfix u-pv7x u-mb0x js-work-card work_32454247" data-work_id="32454247" itemscope="itemscope" itemtype="https://schema.org/ScholarlyArticle"><div class="header"><div class="title u-fontSerif u-fs22 u-lineHeight1_3"><a class="u-tcGrayDarkest js-work-link" href="https://www.academia.edu/32454247/A_Magnetized_Jet_from_a_Massive_Protostar">A Magnetized Jet from a Massive Protostar</a></div></div><div class="u-pb4x u-mt3x"><div class="summary u-fs14 u-fw300 u-lineHeight1_5 u-tcGrayDarkest"><div class="summarized">Synchrotron emission is commonly found in relativistic jets from active galactic nuclei (AGNs) and microquasars, but so far its presence in jets from young stellar objects (YSOs) has not been proved.

The two main candidates for how this fragmentation occurs are bulk<br />rotation and turbulence. These two models predict different alignments for the spins and<br />orbits of the stars and their circumstellar disks but due to internal and external pertur-<br />bations, the system can result in being either aligned or misaligned. This would hide<br />the details of how the system actually came to be. In this project, we have performed<br />data reduction and analysis on data pertaining to the binary protostellar system L1551<br />IRS5. The principal goal of our research was to look for a possible circumbinary disk<br />around the binary components, as well as to search for structures that extend from the<br />circumstellar disks which would correlate to matter infall and accretion streams.<br />The observations were made using the B and C Arrays of the Very Large Array<br />(VLA). The search for the circumbinary disk was done using the C array observations,<br />since this provides lower angular resolutions which correspond to large angular scales.<br />This enabled us to look for structures spanning larger scales, which is what is expected<br />of a circumbinary disk. The B array observations were used to search for the structures<br />extending from the circumstellar disks, since this provides high angular resolution at<br />small angular scales. This allowed us to look into the structure in detail so as to study<br />the accretion streams. As the final product, we created images as well as a residual map<br />from one dataset and found that there were certain distinctive structures surrounding<br />the circumstellar disks which may correspond to possible accretion streams.

The two main candidates for how this fragmentation occurs are bulk\nrotation and turbulence. These two models predict different alignments for the spins and\norbits of the stars and their circumstellar disks but due to internal and external pertur-\nbations, the system can result in being either aligned or misaligned. This would hide\nthe details of how the system actually came to be. In this project, we have performed\ndata reduction and analysis on data pertaining to the binary protostellar system L1551\nIRS5. The principal goal of our research was to look for a possible circumbinary disk\naround the binary components, as well as to search for structures that extend from the\ncircumstellar disks which would correlate to matter infall and accretion streams.\nThe observations were made using the B and C Arrays of the Very Large Array\n(VLA). The search for the circumbinary disk was done using the C array observations,\nsince this provides lower angular resolutions which correspond to large angular scales.\nThis enabled us to look for structures spanning larger scales, which is what is expected\nof a circumbinary disk. The B array observations were used to search for the structures\nextending from the circumstellar disks, since this provides high angular resolution at\nsmall angular scales. This allowed us to look into the structure in detail so as to study\nthe accretion streams. As the final product, we created images as well as a residual map\nfrom one dataset and found that there were certain distinctive structures surrounding\nthe circumstellar disks which may correspond to possible accretion streams. The cir-\ncumbinary disk was not detected as of yet which may be due to insufficient angular scale\nin the observations. However our residual maps are based on basic model-subtraction\nof only the circumstellar disks. Model-subtraction with higher accuracy will be carried\nout on all datasets in the future to obtain the residual images which will provide better\ninsight into the nature of the structures protruding from the circumstellar disks.","downloadable_attachments":[{"id":45092848,"asset_id":24763208,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false}],"ordered_authors":[{"id":12863366,"first_name":"Amruth","last_name":"Alfred","domain_name":"hku-hk","page_name":"AmruthAlfred","display_name":"Amruth Alfred","profile_url":"https://hku-hk.academia.edu/AmruthAlfred?f_ri=24009","photo":"https://0.academia-photos.com/12863366/5386665/6148301/s65_amruth.alfred.jpg_oh_7c8991e9d6eed2e33f2e29eb823b978b_oe_54f72bb0___gda___1425078216_357620164ece576bbb5e46a8bac04025"}],"research_interests":[{"id":498,"name":"Physics","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Physics?f_ri=24009","nofollow":true},{"id":701,"name":"Radio Astronomy","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Radio_Astronomy?f_ri=24009","nofollow":true},{"id":23179,"name":"Astrophysics","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Astrophysics?f_ri=24009","nofollow":true},{"id":24009,"name":"Star formation (Physics)","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Star_formation_Physics_?f_ri=24009","nofollow":true},{"id":47599,"name":"Astronomy","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Astronomy?f_ri=24009"},{"id":58143,"name":"Interferometry","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Interferometry?f_ri=24009"},{"id":1709249,"name":"Very Large Array","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Very_Large_Array?f_ri=24009"}]}, }) } })();</script></ul></li></ul></div></div><div class="u-borderBottom1 u-borderColorGrayLighter"><div class="clearfix u-pv7x u-mb0x js-work-card work_339239" data-work_id="339239" itemscope="itemscope" itemtype="https://schema.org/ScholarlyArticle"><div class="header"><div class="title u-fontSerif u-fs22 u-lineHeight1_3"><a class="u-tcGrayDarkest js-work-link" href="https://www.academia.edu/339239/The_Star_Formation_Rate_and_Gas_Surface_Density_Relation_In_the_Milky_Way_Implications_for_Extragalactic_Studies">The Star Formation Rate and Gas Surface Density Relation In the Milky Way: Implications for Extragalactic Studies</a></div></div><div class="u-pb4x u-mt3x"></div><ul class="InlineList u-ph0x u-fs13"><li class="InlineList-item logged_in_only"><div class="share_on_academia_work_button"><a class="academia_share Button Button--inverseBlue Button--sm js-bookmark-button" data-academia-share="Work/339239" data-share-source="work_strip" data-spinner="small_white_hide_contents"><i class="fa fa-plus"></i><span class="work-strip-link-text u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Bookmark</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><div class="download"><a id="af2a72eb699479de4caa3a55f4bff700" rel="nofollow" data-download="{"attachment_id":1728812,"asset_id":339239,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false,"track":null,"button_location":"work_strip","source":null,"hide_modal":null}" class="Button Button--sm Button--inverseGreen js-download-button prompt_button doc_download" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/1728812/download_file?st=MTc0MDAzNDU3NCw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=work_strip"><i class="fa fa-arrow-circle-o-down fa-lg"></i><span class="u-textUppercase u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Download</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><ul class="InlineList InlineList--bordered u-ph0x"><li class="InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered"><span class="InlineList-item-text">by <span itemscope="itemscope" itemprop="author" itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a class="u-tcGrayDark u-fw700" data-has-card-for-user="157219" href="https://utexas.academia.edu/AmandaHeiderman">Amanda Heiderman</a><script data-card-contents-for-user="157219" type="text/json">{"id":157219,"first_name":"Amanda","last_name":"Heiderman","domain_name":"utexas","page_name":"AmandaHeiderman","display_name":"Amanda Heiderman","profile_url":"https://utexas.academia.edu/AmandaHeiderman?f_ri=24009","photo":"https://0.academia-photos.com/157219/40642/37352/s65_amanda.heiderman.jpg"}</script></span></span></li><li class="js-paper-rank-work_339239 InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered hidden"><span class="js-paper-rank-view hidden u-tcGrayDark" data-paper-rank-work-id="339239"><i class="u-m1x fa fa-bar-chart"></i><strong class="js-paper-rank"></strong></span><script>$(function() { new Works.PaperRankView({ workId: 339239, container: ".js-paper-rank-work_339239", });

Recent models have questioned the similar evolutionary trend expected for the two fractionation mechanisms in N 2 H + , based on a classical scenario in which ionneutral reactions occurring in cold gas should have caused an enhancement of the abundance of N 2 D + , 15 NNH + , and N 15 NH +. In the framework of the ASAI IRAM-30m large program, we have investigated the fractionation of deuterium and 15 N in N 2 H + in the best known representatives of the different evolutionary stages of the Sun-like star formation process. The goal is to ultimately confirm (or deny) the classical 'ion-neutral reactions' scenario that predicts a similar trend for D and 15 N fractionation. We do not find any evolutionary trend of the 14 N/ 15 N ratio from both the 15 NNH + and N 15 NH + isotopologues. Therefore, our findings confirm that, during the formation of a Sun-like star, the core evolution is irrelevant in the fractionation of 15 N. The independence of the 14 N/ 15 N ratio with time, found also in high-mass star-forming cores, indicates that the enrichment in 15 N revealed in comets and protoplanetary discs is unlikely to happen at core scales. Nevertheless, we have firmly confirmed the evolutionary trend expected for the H/D ratio, with the N 2 H + /N 2 D + ratio decreasing before the pre-stellar core phase, and increasing monotonically during the protostellar phase.

Recent models have questioned the similar evolutionary trend expected for the two fractionation mechanisms in N 2 H + , based on a classical scenario in which ionneutral reactions occurring in cold gas should have caused an enhancement of the abundance of N 2 D + , 15 NNH + , and N 15 NH +. In the framework of the ASAI IRAM-30m large program, we have investigated the fractionation of deuterium and 15 N in N 2 H + in the best known representatives of the different evolutionary stages of the Sun-like star formation process. The goal is to ultimately confirm (or deny) the classical 'ion-neutral reactions' scenario that predicts a similar trend for D and 15 N fractionation. We do not find any evolutionary trend of the 14 N/ 15 N ratio from both the 15 NNH + and N 15 NH + isotopologues. Therefore, our findings confirm that, during the formation of a Sun-like star, the core evolution is irrelevant in the fractionation of 15 N. The independence of the 14 N/ 15 N ratio with time, found also in high-mass star-forming cores, indicates that the enrichment in 15 N revealed in comets and protoplanetary discs is unlikely to happen at core scales. Nevertheless, we have firmly confirmed the evolutionary trend expected for the H/D ratio, with the N 2 H + /N 2 D + ratio decreasing before the pre-stellar core phase, and increasing monotonically during the protostellar phase. We have also confirmed clearly that the two fractionation mechanisms are not related.","downloadable_attachments":[{"id":73631286,"asset_id":59983134,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false}],"ordered_authors":[{"id":35241180,"first_name":"E.","last_name":"Caux","domain_name":"independent","page_name":"ECaux","display_name":"E.

Black Holes as the core of spiral galaxies: When we look at pictures of spiral galaxies, intuitively we're reminded of whirlpools or the gaseous equivalents, such as tornadoes or dust devils. That intuition leads us to see the 'arms' of the spiral as 'trailing', which implies that the galaxy, in the same sense as a whirlpool, is 'pulling' matter in to it. The solar system is posited as being, currently, towards the end of one such 'trailing' arm. The problem with this intuition is that whirlpools and equivalents can only form where the 'forces' of things surrounding them are greater than the forces generated by the whirlpool itself. In the case of a galaxy, where there is very little between it and the next galaxy, that's problematic. Granted there is such a thing as 'dark matter' and 'dark energy', it would have to be fairly evenly distributed both within and without the galaxy, otherwise it would be detectable and not 'dark', that distribution means that it can't change the overall sense that there's very little between galaxies, it just adds the qualifier 'very little that has any effective capacity " between galaxies. Observationally, this difference and therefore the intuition that ignores it, are incorrect. The spin of spiral galaxies, insofar as it can be determined (spiral galaxies spin at very different rates, which makes the direction of the spin difficult to determine in cases where the rate is relatively slow) is inverse to the intuitive spin, meaning the 'arms' of the spiral are actually leading arms, not trailing arms. Simultaneously this implies that the galaxy is not 'pulling' anything from its surrounding region, but pushing into its surrounding region. For a galaxy to endure for any length of time, therefore, the galaxy must be producing, rather than consuming, matter and energy in some way. This also fits with the observation that spiral galaxies, unlike other types which appear to be older, tend to be more isolated, further from the dense clusters of other types of galaxies. Were they to exist fundamentally by pulling things in from the surrounding area, one would expect them to be more prevalent where there was more in the surrounding area to draw in. Leaving aside the unanswered question of what the 'arms' actually consist of (the intuition that they consist of denser areas of stars is also incorrect – the orbits of stars around the galactic core are extremely eccentric in general, and don't correspond to the 'arms' in any way, thus in a few hundred thousand years, the sun is predicted to be much closer to the galactic core, but outside any of the arms –</div></div></div><ul class="InlineList u-ph0x u-fs13"><li class="InlineList-item logged_in_only"><div class="share_on_academia_work_button"><a class="academia_share Button Button--inverseBlue Button--sm js-bookmark-button" data-academia-share="Work/34503486" data-share-source="work_strip" data-spinner="small_white_hide_contents"><i class="fa fa-plus"></i><span class="work-strip-link-text u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Bookmark</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><div class="download"><a id="554ed8e80a2d14ae8bad972d04ffc604" rel="nofollow" data-download="{"attachment_id":54368314,"asset_id":34503486,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false,"track":null,"button_location":"work_strip","source":null,"hide_modal":null}" class="Button Button--sm Button--inverseGreen js-download-button prompt_button doc_download" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/54368314/download_file?st=MTc0MDAzNDU3NCw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=work_strip"><i class="fa fa-arrow-circle-o-down fa-lg"></i><span class="u-textUppercase u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Download</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><ul class="InlineList InlineList--bordered u-ph0x"><li class="InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered"><span class="InlineList-item-text">by <span itemscope="itemscope" itemprop="author" itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a class="u-tcGrayDark u-fw700" data-has-card-for-user="173718" href="https://independent.academia.edu/AndrewGlynn">Andrew Glynn</a><script data-card-contents-for-user="173718" type="text/json">{"id":173718,"first_name":"Andrew","last_name":"Glynn","domain_name":"independent","page_name":"AndrewGlynn","display_name":"Andrew Glynn","profile_url":"https://independent.academia.edu/AndrewGlynn?f_ri=24009","photo":"https://0.academia-photos.com/173718/43432/39942/s65_andrew.glynn.jpg"}</script></span></span></li><li class="js-paper-rank-work_34503486 InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered hidden"><span class="js-paper-rank-view hidden u-tcGrayDark" data-paper-rank-work-id="34503486"><i class="u-m1x fa fa-bar-chart"></i><strong class="js-paper-rank"></strong></span><script>$(function() { new Works.PaperRankView({ workId: 34503486, container: ".js-paper-rank-work_34503486", });

Black Holes as the core of spiral galaxies: When we look at pictures of spiral galaxies, intuitively we're reminded of whirlpools or the gaseous equivalents, such as tornadoes or dust devils. That intuition leads us to see the 'arms' of the spiral as 'trailing', which implies that the galaxy, in the same sense as a whirlpool, is 'pulling' matter in to it. The solar system is posited as being, currently, towards the end of one such 'trailing' arm. The problem with this intuition is that whirlpools and equivalents can only form where the 'forces' of things surrounding them are greater than the forces generated by the whirlpool itself. In the case of a galaxy, where there is very little between it and the next galaxy, that's problematic. Granted there is such a thing as 'dark matter' and 'dark energy', it would have to be fairly evenly distributed both within and without the galaxy, otherwise it would be detectable and not 'dark', that distribution means that it can't change the overall sense that there's very little between galaxies, it just adds the qualifier 'very little that has any effective capacity \" between galaxies. Observationally, this difference and therefore the intuition that ignores it, are incorrect. The spin of spiral galaxies, insofar as it can be determined (spiral galaxies spin at very different rates, which makes the direction of the spin difficult to determine in cases where the rate is relatively slow) is inverse to the intuitive spin, meaning the 'arms' of the spiral are actually leading arms, not trailing arms. Simultaneously this implies that the galaxy is not 'pulling' anything from its surrounding region, but pushing into its surrounding region. For a galaxy to endure for any length of time, therefore, the galaxy must be producing, rather than consuming, matter and energy in some way. This also fits with the observation that spiral galaxies, unlike other types which appear to be older, tend to be more isolated, further from the dense clusters of other types of galaxies. Were they to exist fundamentally by pulling things in from the surrounding area, one would expect them to be more prevalent where there was more in the surrounding area to draw in. Leaving aside the unanswered question of what the 'arms' actually consist of (the intuition that they consist of denser areas of stars is also incorrect – the orbits of stars around the galactic core are extremely eccentric in general, and don't correspond to the 'arms' in any way, thus in a few hundred thousand years, the sun is predicted to be much closer to the galactic core, but outside any of
