    • A cluster in the making: ALMA reveals the initial conditions for high-mass cluster formation 
      Rathborne, Jill; Longmore, S. N.; Jackson, J. M.; Alves, J. F.; Bally, J.; Bastian, N.; Contreras, Y.; Foster, J. B.; Garay Brignardello, Guido; Kruijssen, J. M.; Testi, L.; Walsh, A. J. (IOP PUBLISHING LTD, 2015)
      G0.253+0.016 is a molecular clump that appears to be on the verge of forming a high-mass cluster: its extremely low dust temperature, high mass, and high density, combined with its lack of prevalent star formation, make ...
    • THE EARLY STAGES OF STAR FORMATION IN INFRARED DARK CLOUDS: CHARACTERIZING THE CORE DUST PROPERTIES 
      Rathborne, Jill; Jackson, J. M.; Chambers, E. T.; Stojimirovic, I.; Simon, R.; Shipman, R.; Frieswijk, W. (The American Astronomical Society, 2010-05-20)
      Identified as extinction features against the bright Galactic mid-infrared background, infrared dark clouds (IRDCs) are thought to harbor the very earliest stages of star and cluster formation. In order to better characterize ...
    • Far-Infrared Dust Temperatures and Column Densities of the MALT90 Molecular Clump Sample 
      Guzmán, Andrés E.; Sanhueza, Patricio; Contreras, Yanett; Smith, Howard A.; Jackson, James M.; Hoq, Sadia; Rathborne, Jill (IOP Publishing, 2015)
      We present dust column densities and dust temperatures for similar to 3000 young, high-mass molecular clumps from the Millimeter Astronomy Legacy Team 90 GHz survey, derived from adjusting single-temperature dust emission ...
    • Fragmentation in filamentary molecular clouds 
      Contreras, Yanett; Garay Brignardello, Guido; Rathborne, Jill; Sanhueza, Patricio (OXFORD UNIV PRESS, 2016)
      Recent surveys of dust continuum emission at sub-mm wavelengths have shown that filamentary molecular clouds are ubiquitous along the Galactic plane. These structures are inhomogeneous, with overdensities that are sometimes ...
    • A hot molecular outflow driven by the ionized jet associated with IRAS 16562-3959 
      Guzmán, Andrés; Garay Brignardello, Guido; Brooks, Kate J.; Rathborne, Jill; Güsten, Rolf (The American Astronomical Society, 2011-08-01)
      We report molecular line observations in the CO J = 3→2, 6→5, and 7→6 transitions, made using the Atacama Pathfinder Experiment Telescope, toward the massive and dense core IRAS 16562−3959. This core harbors a string of ...
    • The nature of filamentary structures of dense molecular gas in the galactic plane 
      Contreras Morales, Yanett Alejandra (Universidad de Chile, 2012)
      Estudios recientes en longitudes de onda submilimétrica han mostrado que las estructuras filamentarias se ubican por todo el Plano Galáctico, estando en muchos casos asociadas a zonas de formación estelar. El estudio de ...
    • The Red MSX Source survey: distribution and properties of a sample of massive young stars 
      Urquhart, J. S.; Moore, T. J. T.; Hoare, M. G.; Lumsden, S. L.; Oudmaijer, R. D.; Rathborne, Jill; Mottram, J. C.; Davies, B.; Stead, J. J. (2011)
      The Red MSX Source (RMS) survey has identified a large sample of massive young stellar objects and ultra compact HII regions from a sample of ∼2000 MSX and Two Micron All Sky Survey (2MASS) colour selected sources. Using ...
