This review examines the state-of-the-art knowledge of high-mass star and massive cluster
formation, gained from ambitious observational surveys, which acknowledges the multiscale …

Star formation is a multi-scale, multi-physics problem ranging from the size scale of
molecular clouds (∼ 10 ∼10 s pc) down to the size scales of dense prestellar cores (∼ 0.1 …

We present a unified description of the scenario of global hierarchical collapse (GHC). GHC
constitutes a flow regime of (non-homologous) collapses within collapses, in which all …

Abstract The APEX Telescope Large Area Survey of the Galaxy (ATLASGAL) is an unbiased
870 μm submillimetre survey of the inner Galactic plane (| ℓ|< 60° with| b|< 1 5). It is the …

We present dynamical properties of 294 cores embedded in twelve IRDCs observed as part
of the ASHES Survey. Protostellar cores have higher gas masses, surface densities, column …

ABSTRACT ATLASGAL is an 870-µm dust survey of 420 deg2 the inner Galactic plane and
has been used to identify∼ 10 000 dense molecular clumps. Dedicated follow-up …

The initial conditions found in infrared dark clouds (IRDCs) provide insights on how high-
mass stars and stellar clusters form. We have conducted high-angular resolution and high …

Energetic feedback from star clusters plays a pivotal role in shaping the dynamical evolution
of giant molecular clouds (GMCs). To study the effects of stellar feedback on the star …

ALMA-IMF is an Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) Large Program
designed to measure the core mass function (CMF) of 15 protoclusters chosen to span their …
