APOGEE is a high-resolution (R∼ 22,000), near-infrared, multi-epoch, spectroscopic survey
of the Milky Way. The second generation of the APOGEE project, APOGEE-2, includes an …

Abstract Models aiming to explain the formation of massive black hole seeds, and in
particular the direct collapse scenario, face substantial difficulties. These are rooted in rather …

We characterize the stellar and gas volume density, potential, and gravitational field profiles
in the central∼ 0.5 pc of the Orion Nebula Cluster (ONC), the nearest embedded star cluster …

A scenario for the formation of multiple co-eval populations separated in age by about 1 Myr
in very young clusters (VYCs, ages less than 10 Myr) and with masses in the range 600–20 …

We use the polaris radiative transfer code to generate predictions of the two main
observables directly sensitive to the magnetic field morphology and strength in filaments …

Deuterium fractionation is considered as an important process to infer the chemical ages of
prestellar cores in filaments. We present here the first magnetohydrodynamical simulations …

We investigate the effects of an oscillating gas filament on the dynamics of its embedded
stellar clusters. Motivated by recent observational constraints, we model the host gas …

The Orion nebula is a prime example of a massive star-forming region in our galaxy.
Observations have shown that gravitational and magnetic energy are comparable in its …

Multi-epoch very long baseline interferometry (VLBI) observations measure three-
dimensional water maser motions in protostellar outflows, enabling analysis of inclination …

We present an account of the state of the art in the fields explored by the research
community invested in “Modeling and Observing DEnse STellar systems”. For this purpose …
