商品描述
This book presents observational studies of the earliest stages of high-mass star formation, as revealed by the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA). The author investigates the birth environments of high-mass stars by identifying and analyzing their immediate progenitors--dense cores embedded in infrared dark clouds. The book highlights ALMA's capability to detect star formation signatures even in regions lacking bright mid-infrared emission, owing to its high resolution and sensitivity. It also presents a statistical study of core properties, suggesting the necessity of core growth and the discovery of core-scale infall motions that point to the role of external accretion. Based on the largest statistical sample to date, this work places observational constraints on theoretical models and offers new insights into the physical conditions that govern high-mass cluster formation.
商品描述(中文翻譯)
本書介紹了高質量恆星形成早期階段的觀察研究，這些研究是由阿塔卡馬大型毫米/亞毫米陣列（ALMA）揭示的。作者通過識別和分析高質量恆星的直接前身——嵌入紅外暗雲中的密集核心，來研究高質量恆星的誕生環境。本書強調了ALMA在檢測恆星形成特徵方面的能力，即使在缺乏明亮中紅外輻射的區域，這得益於其高解析度和靈敏度。它還呈現了核心特性的統計研究，建議核心增長的必要性，以及發現指向外部吸積作用的核心尺度下墜運動。基於迄今為止最大的統計樣本，本研究對理論模型施加了觀察約束，並提供了對主導高質量星團形成的物理條件的新見解。
作者簡介
Kaho Morii is a CfA fellow at the Center for Astrophysics Harvard & Smithsonian, specializing in radio astronomy. Her research focuses on the early stages of high-mass star formation, utilizing radio interferometers, including the fragmentation, gas dynamics, and magnetic fields in high-mass star forming regions. She received her B.S. from Kyushu University in 2020, and her M.S. and Ph.D. from The University of Tokyo in 2022 and 2025, respectively. During her master's course, she was supported by the Forefront Physics and Mathematics Program to Drive Transformation (FoPM), a World-leading Innovative Graduate Study Program (WINGS). In 2022, she received a research fellowship for young scientists from the Japan Society for the Promotion of Science (JSPS), which supported her doctoral research. In 2024, she received the 19th L'Oréal-UNESCO For Women in Science Japan Fellowship Award. In the following year, she was honored with the Research Encouragement Award from The University of Tokyo's School of Science as an outstanding graduate student.
