    • Csengeri, T.; Bontemps, S.; Wyrowski, F.; Motte, F.; Menten, K. M.; Beuther, H.; Bronfman Aguiló, Leonardo; Commerçon, B.; Chapillón, E.; Duarte Cabral, A.; Fuller, G. A.; Henning, Th; Leurini, S.; Longmore, S.; Palau, A.; Peretto, N.; Schuller, F.; Tan, J. C.; Testi, L.; Traficante, A.; Urquhart, J. S. (EDP Sciences, 2017)
      The early evolution of massive cluster progenitors is poorly understood. We investigate the fragmentation properties from 0.3 pc to 0.06 pc scalesof a homogenous sample of infrared-quiet massive clumps within 4.5 kpc ...
    • Nony, T.; Motte, F.; Louvet, F.; Plunkett, A.; Gusdorf, A.; Fechtenbaum, S.; Pouteau, Y.; Lefloch, B.; Bontemps, S.; Molet, J.; Robitaille, J-F (EDP Sciences, 2020)
      Context. The accretion history of protostars remains widely mysterious, even though it represents one of the best ways to understand the protostellar collapse that leads to the formation of stars.Aims. Molecular outflows, ...
    • Nguyen Lu'o'ng, Q.; Anderson, L. D.; Motte, F.; Louvet, F.; Bronfman Aguiló, Leonardo (IOP Publishing Ltd, 2017)
      We report the first map of large-scale (10 pc in length) emission of millimeter-wavelength hydrogen recombination lines (mm-RRLs) toward the giant H II region around the W43-Main young massive star cluster (YMC). Our mm-RRL ...
    • Arce Tord, C.; Louvet, F.; Cortés, P. C.; Motte, F.; Hull, C. L. H.; Le Gouellec, V. J. M.; Garay, G.; Nony, T.; Didelon, P.; Bronfman Aguiló, Leonardo (EDP Sciences, 2020)
      Aims. It has been proposed that the magnetic field, which is pervasive in the interstellar medium, plays an important role in the process of massive star formation. To better understand the impact of the magnetic field at ...
    • Tige, J.; Motte, F.; Russeil, D.; Louvet, F. (EDP Sciences, 2017)
      Aims. To constrain models of high-mass star formation, the Herschel-HOBYS key program aims at discovering massive dense cores (MDCs) able to host the high-mass analogs of low-mass prestellar cores, which have been searched ...
    • Motte, F.; Nomy, T.; Louvet, F.; Marsh, K.A.; Bontemps, S.; Whitworth, A. P.; Men’shchikov, A.; Nguyen Luong6, Q.; Csengeri, T.; Maury, A. J.; Gusdorf, A.; Chapillon, E.; Könyves, V.; Schilke, P.; Duarte Cabral, A.; Didelon, P.; Gaudel, M. (Springer Nature, 2018)
      Understanding the processes that determine the stellar Initial Mass Function (IMF) is a critical unsolved problem, with profound implications for many areas of astrophysics1. In molecular clouds, stars are formed in cores, ...
    • Louvet, Fabien; Motte, F.; Gusdorf, A.; Lu'o'ng, Q. Nguyen; Lesaffre, P.; Duarte Cabral, A.; Maury, A.; Schneider, N.; Hill, T.; Schilke, P.; Gueth, F. (EDP Sciences, 2016)
      Aims. Previous literature suggests that the densest structures in the interstellar medium form through colliding flows, but patent evidence of this process is still missing. Recent literature proposes using SiO line emission ...
