6 Nov 2017 | | Abstract: | Understanding the early stages of star formation is a research field of
ongoing development, both theoretically and observationally. In this context,
molecular data have been continuously providing observational constraints on
the gas dynamics at different excitation conditions and depths in the sources.
We have investigated the Barnard 59 core, the only active site of star
formation in the Pipe Nebula, to achieve a comprehensive view of the kinematic
properties of the source. These information were derived by simultaneously
fitting ammonia inversion transition lines (1,1) and (2,2). Our analysis
unveils the imprint of protostellar feedback, such as increasing line widths,
temperature and turbulent motions in our molecular data. Combined with
complementary observations of dust thermal emission, we estimate that the core
is gravitationally bound following a virial analysis. If the core is not
contracting, another source of internal pressure, most likely the magnetic
field, is supporting it against gravitational collapse and limits its star
formation efficiency. | | Source: | arXiv, 1711.1794 | | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites | |
