    Formation of wide binaries by turbulent fragmentation

    Understanding the formation of wide-binary systems of very low-mass stars (M ≤ 0.1 solar masses, M⊙) is challenging1,2,3. The most obvious route is through widely separated low-mass collapsing fragments produced ...

    A triple protostar system formed via fragmentation of a gravitationally unstable disk

    Observations of the triple protostar system L1448 IRS3B support the hypothesis that companion stars can form because of gravitational instability in a protostellar disk.

    Imaging the water snow-line during a protostellar outburst

    The snow-line is the distance from a protostar at which a particular volatile gas condenses; images of the protostar V883 Ori suggest that the water snow-line migrated outwards during a protostellar outburst, ...

    Episodic molecular outflow in the very young protostellar cluster Serpens South

    A study of 12CO outflow emission from the protostellar source CARMA-7 in the cluster Serpens South suggests that episodic ejections of mass by the protostar begin in the earliest phase of protostellar evolution, ...
