Our observations included the 1.3 mm continuum with a resolution of 0″.05 (7.8 au) and several molecular species, including 12CO, 13CO, C18O, H2CO, and c-C3H2. The dust continuum analysis unveiled a disk-shaped structure with a major axis of ∼200 au. We observed an asymmetry in the minor axis of the continuum emission suggesting that the emission is optically thick and the disk is flared. On the other hand, we identified two prominent bumps along the major axis located at distances of 26 and 50 au from the central protostar. The origin of the bumps remains uncertain and might be an embedded substructure within the disk or the temperature distribution and not the surface density because the continuum emission is optically thick. The 12CO emission reveals a molecular outflow consisting of three distinct components: a collimated component, an intermediate-velocity component exhibiting an hourglass shape, and a wider angle low-velocity component. We associate these components with the coexistence of a jet and a disk wind. The C18O emission traces both a circumstellar disk in Keplerian rotation and the infall of the rotating envelope. We measured a stellar dynamical mass of 0.35 ±0.09 M⊙ DOI: 10.1051/0004-6361/202449981 Scopus

We present two unrelated Japanese families with PHP1A and PPHP harboring unreported pathogenic variants of GNAS (c.1141delG, p.Asp381Thrfs*23 and c.1117delC, p.Arg373Alafs*31). These variants introduce abnormal amino acids in the β6 strand/α5 helix of Gsα, which interact with G protein coupling receptor (GPCR). We conclude that these variants alter the association of Gsα with GPCR and cause PHP1A or PPHP. DOI: 10.1016/j.bonr.2022.101637 Scopus PubMed

The two bands cover not only the fundamental lines of the abundant dense gas tracer CS and its isotopologues but also a vast number of transitions of relatively large, long-chain, and/or complex organic species. Here, through a Taiwan-Japan collaboration, an extended Q-band (30-50GHz) receiver is built for Nobeyama 45-m telescope. The receiver front-end was installed at Nobeyama 45-m telescope in Nov. 2021 and obtained its first light in the same month. Commissioning and science verification (CSV) of the receiver was conducted in the first half of 2022. After commissioning, this receiver will be the only one in the world providing capability to cover 3 Zeeman transitions simultaneously at 7mm wavelength installed at large single dish telescope. It will be one of the most powerful facilities to explore the magnetic fields towards the pre-protostellar cores. DOI: 10.1117/12.2629811 Scopus
