Abstract Spatially resolved structures in protoplanetary disks hint at unseen planets. Previous imaging observations of the transitional disk around MWC 758 revealed an inner cavity, a ring-like outer disk, emission clumps, and spiral arms, all possibly generated by companions. We present ALMA dust continuum 0.87 mm wavelength with 43 × 39 mas angular resolution (6.9 6.2 au) 20 μ Jy beam −1 rms. The central submillimeter cavity is to be eccentric; once deprojected, its edge can well fitted...

Context. Molecular filaments and hubs have received special attention recently thanks to new studies showing their key role in star formation. While the (column) density velocity structures of both been carefully studied, magnetic field (B-field) properties yet be characterized. Consequently, B-fields formation evolution hub-filament systems is not well constrained. Aims. We aim understand B-field its interplay with turbulence gravity dynamical NGC 6334 filament network that harbours...
Abstract Protostellar outflows and jets are almost ubiquitous characteristics during the mass accretion phase encode history of stellar accretion, complex organic molecule (COM) formation, planet formation. Episodic likely connected to episodic through disk. Despite importance, studies on ejection links have not been done yet in a systematic fashion using high-sensitivity high-resolution observations. To explore mechanisms chronologies events, we investigated 39 fields containing protostars...

HH 212 is one of the well-studied protostellar systems, showing first vertically resolved disk with a warm atmosphere around central protostar. Here we report detection 9 organic molecules (including newly detected ketene, formic acid, deuterated acetonitrile, methyl formate, and ethanol) in atmosphere, confirming that is, for 212, chemically rich component, identified before at lower resolution as "hot-corino". More importantly, systematic survey abundance measurement within $\sim$ 40 au...
Abstract The dependence of the polarization fraction p on total intensity I in polarized submillimeter emission measurements is typically parameterized as ∝ − α ( ≤ 1) and used to infer dust grain alignment efficiency star-forming regions, with an index = 1 indicating near-total lack grains magnetic field. In this work, we demonstrate that non-Gaussian noise characteristics may produce apparent ∼ even data significant signal-to-noise Stokes Q , U emission, so robust angle. We present a...
Nod-like receptor protein 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome-mediated inflammation has emerged as a contributor to epileptogenesis. Endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERS) plays an important role in epilepsy-induced neurodegeneration. NLRP3 activation and ERS reactions share the same induction factors, suggesting that these processes may be interdependent. However, correlation between TLE not been confirmed.The expression patterns of inflammasome ERS-related markers temporal neocortices patients were...
Abstract The James Clerk Maxwell Telescope (JCMT) Transient Survey has been monitoring eight Gould Belt low-mass star-forming regions since 2015 December and six somewhat more distant intermediate-mass 2020 February with the Submillimeter Common User Bolometer Array 2 on board JCMT at 450 850 μ m an approximately monthly cadence. We introduce our pipeline v2 relative calibration procedures for image alignment flux across epochs, improving previous v1 by decreasing measurement uncertainties...

We present BIMA Array observations of formic acid (HCOOH) in Galactic hot molecular cores. It has been found that among nearly 120 interstellar and circumstellar species identified to date, the more complex saturated organic are usually observed cores—dense warm condensations associated with active star formation regions inside clouds. Formic acid, one molecules this category, shares common structural elements both methyl formate (HCOOCH3) acetic (CH3COOH). In study, we successfully mapped...
We present Berkeley-Maryland-Illlinois Association array observations of formic acid (HCOOH) at 1 mm toward the Orion KL region. Near compact ridge, HCOOH emission is spatially resolved; its partial shell morphology different from that other complex O-bearing molecules such as methyl formate and dimethyl ether. This unique distribution suggests located in a layer delineates interaction region between outflow ambient quiescent gas. also detected hot core. For both cases, ejection grain...
Arcsecond-resolution spectral observations toward the protobinary system IRAS 16293-2422 at 344 and 354 GHz were conducted using Submillimeter Array. Complex organic molecules such as CH3OH HCOOCH3 detected. Together with rich inventory revealed, it clearly indicates existence of two, rather than one, compact hot molecular cores (smaller or equal to 400 AU in radius) associated each components identified by their dust continuum emission inner star-forming core.
We present the first submm (865mum) imaging spectral line survey at one arcsecond resolution conducted with Submillimeter Array toward Orion-KL.

We observed 146 Galactic clumps in HCN (4-3) and CS (7-6) with the Atacama Submillimeter Telescope Experiment (ASTE) 10-m telescope.
