摘要:

本文介绍了对39个大质量恒星形成区的CS J=2-1成图观测结果,这些恒星形成区是从先前对具有沿银道面高速CO流的冷IRAS源的CO线测量中选出的(Yang等,2002)。在CS J=2-1中检测到所有源,表明在IRAS源周围存在CS团块。然而,三分之一的源是不深嵌入密集的团块通过比较中央供电IRAS源和CS团块的形态。给出了稠密分子团的物理参数。通过检查致密核与IRAS源之间的联系、水脉泽的探测以及IRAS源的射电性质,我们确定了12个高质量原恒星天体(HMPO)候选者。我们发现,HMPO源的特点是低FIR光度维里质量比,因为他们是在非常早期的演化阶段时,大质量的原恒星还没有达到他们的全光度,这是典型的零年龄主序星。HMPO源中的大湍流运动可能主要是由于致密团块中形成的中央原恒星喷射出的大动能。然而,替代手段或未检测到的流出也可能是造成团块中湍流的原因。

英文摘要:

We present the results of CS J=2-1 mapping observations towards 39 massive star-forming regions selected from the previous CO line survey of cold IRAS sources with high-velocity CO flows along the Galactic plane (Yang et al. 2002). All sources are detected in CS J=2-1 showing the existence of CS clumps around the IRAS sources. However, one-third of the sources are not deeply embedded in the dense clumps by comparison of the central powering IRAS sources and the morphologies of CS clumps. Physical parameters of the dense molecular clumps are presented. We have identified 12 high-mass protostellar object (HMPO) candidates by checking the association between the dense cores and the IRAS sources, the detection of water maser, and the radio properties towards the IRAS sources. We find that the HMPO sources are characterized by low FIR luminosity to virial mass ratios since they are in very early evolutionary stages when the massive protostars have not reached their full luminosities, which are typical for zero-age main sequence stars. Large turbulent motion in the HMPO sources may be largely due to the large kinetic energy ejected by the central protostars formed in the dense clumps. However, alternative means or undetected outflows may also be responsible for the turbulence in the clumps.
