In the past twenty years, the reconnaissance of 12CO and 13CO emission in the Milky Way
by single-dish millimeter-wave telescopes has expanded our view and understanding of …

We review current understanding of star formation, outlining an overall theoretical framework
and the observations that motivate it. A conception of star formation has emerged in which …

An examination of the uses of data within a changing knowledge infrastructure, offering
analysis and case studies from the sciences, social sciences, and humanities.“Big Data” is …

While science policy promotes data sharing and open data, these are not ends in
themselves. Arguments for data sharing are to reproduce research, to make public assets …

Abstract We present Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) observations of
the Class I source Oph IRS 63 in the context of the Early Planet Formation in Embedded …

ABSTRACT The c2d Spitzer Legacy project obtained images and photometry with both
IRAC and MIPS instruments for five large, nearby molecular clouds. Three of the clouds …

Context. Gas phase Elemental abundances in molecular CloudS (GEMS) is an IRAM 30-m
Large Program aimed at determining the elemental abundances of carbon (C), oxygen (O) …

The mass of molecular gas in an interstellar cloud is often measured using line emission
from low rotational levels of CO, which are sensitive to the CO mass, and then scaling to the …

Cold dark clouds are nearby members of the densest and coldest phase in the Galactic
interstellar medium, and represent the most accessible sites where stars like our Sun are …

We investigate the relation between star formation rate (SFR) and gas surface densities in
Galactic star-forming regions using a sample of young stellar objects (YSOs) and massive …
