We investigate the presence of hub-filament systems in a large sample of 146 active proto-
clusters, using H13CO+ J= 1-0 molecular line data obtained from the ATOMS survey. We …

Aims. Current star formation research centers the characterization of the physical and
chemical properties of massive stars, which are in the process of formation, at the spatial …

Context. The physical properties, evolution, and fragmentation of massive dense cores
(MDCs,~ 0.1 pc) are fundamental pieces in our understanding of high-mass star formation …

Context. High-mass star formation is a hierarchical process from cloud (> 1 pc), to clump
(0.1− 1 pc), to core scales (< 0.1 pc). Modern interferometers that achieve high angular …

Context. The role of ionization feedback on high-mass (> 8 M⊙) star formation is still highly
debated. Questions remain concerning the presence of nearby H II regions changes the …

Context. Investigating the flow of material along filamentary structures towards the central
core can help provide insights into high-mass star formation and evolution. Aims. Our main …

Context. The process of high-mass star formation during the earliest evolutionary stages and
the change over time of the physical and chemical properties of individual fragmented cores …

The role of massive (≥ 8) stars in defining the energy budget and chemical enrichment of
the interstellar medium in their host galaxy is significant. In this first paper from the Tracing …

We have used catalogues from several Galactic plane surveys and dedicated observations
to investigate the relationship between various maser species and Galactic star-forming …

We present the first radiative transfer (RT) model of a non-edge-on disc galaxy in which the
large-scale geometry of stars and dust is self-consistently derived through the fitting of …
