Astrometry provides the foundation for astrophysics. Accurate positions are required for the
association of sources detected at different times or wavelengths, and distances are …

We present and discuss the results of the Herschel Gould Belt survey (HGBS) observations
in an~ 11 deg 2 area of the Aquila molecular cloud complex at d~ 260 pc, imaged with the …

Aims. Three-dimensional (3D) maps of the Galactic interstellar matter (ISM) are a potential
tool of wide use, but accurate and detailed maps are still lacking. One of the ways to …

We investigate the relation between star formation rate (SFR) and gas surface densities in
Galactic star-forming regions using a sample of young stellar objects (YSOs) and massive …

Aims. We study the dependence of protoplanetary disk evolution on stellar mass using a
large sample of young stellar objects in nearby young star-forming regions. Methods. We …

One puzzle in understanding how stars form in clusters is the source of mass—is all of the
mass in place before the first stars are born, or is there an extended period when the cluster …

Context. Understanding the formation mechanisms of protoplanetary disks and multiple
systems and also their pristine properties are key questions for modern astrophysics. The …

Jets and outflows are ubiquitous in the process of formation of stars since outflow is
intimately associated with accretion. Free–free (thermal) radio continuum emission in the …

We have conducted a homogeneous near-infrared (near-IR) spectroscopic survey of 33
objects with varying degrees of similarity to FU Orionis. Common spectroscopic features that …

We present the first results of the Gould's Belt Distances Survey (GOBELINS), a project
aimed at measuring the proper motion and trigonometric parallax of a large sample of young …
