“…SVS13-A is a Class I protostar located in the SVS13 cluster of the NGC1333 cloud in Perseus, which lies at a distance of (235±18) pc (Hirota et al 2008). Next to SVS13-A lies the Class 0 protostar SVS13-B, about 15 apart (see e.g.…”

We present the first census of the interstellar Complex Organic Molecules (iCOMs) in the low-mass Class I protostar SVS13-A, obtained by analysing data from the IRAM-30m Large Project ASAI (Astrochemical Surveys At IRAM). They consist of an high-sensitivity unbiased spectral survey at the 1mm, 2mm and 3mm IRAM bands. We detected five iCOMs: acetaldehyde (CH 3 CHO), methyl formate (HCOOCH 3 ), dimethyl ether (CH 3 OCH 3 ), ethanol (CH 3 CH 2 OH) and formamide (NH 2 CHO). In addition we searched for other iCOMs and ketene (H 2 CCO), formic acid (HCOOH) and methoxy (CH 3 O), whose only ketene was detected. The numerous detected lines, from 5 to 37 depending on the species, cover a large upper level energy range, between 15 and 254 K. This allowed us to carry out a rotational diagram analysis and derive rotational temperatures between 35 and 110 K, and column densities between 3 × 10 15 and 1 × 10 17 cm −2 on the 0. 3 size previously determined by interferometric observations of glycolaldehyde. These new observations clearly demonstrate the presence of a rich chemistry in the hot corino towards SVS13-A. The measured iCOMs abundances were compared to other Class 0 and I hot corinos, as well as comets, previously published in the literature. We find evidence that (i) SVS13-A is as chemically rich as younger Class 0 protostars, and (ii) the iCOMs relative abundances do not substantially evolve during the protostellar phase.

Embedded binaries and their dense cores

We explore the relationship between young, embedded binaries and their parent cores, using observations within the Perseus Molecular Cloud. We combine recently published VLA observations of young stars with core properties obtained from SCUBA-2 observations at 850 µm. Most embedded binary systems are found toward the centres of their parent cores, although several systems have components closer to the core edge. Wide binaries, defined as those systems with physical separations greater than 500 au, show a tendency to be aligned with the long axes of their parent cores, whereas tight binaries show no preferred orientation. We test a number of simple, evolutionary models to account for the observed populations of Class 0 and I sources, both single and binary. In the model that best explains the observations, all stars form initially as wide binaries. These binaries either break up into separate stars or else shrink into tighter orbits. Under the assumption that both stars remain embedded following binary breakup, we find a total star formation rate of 168 Myr −1 . Alternatively, one star may be ejected from the dense core due to binary breakup. This latter assumption results in a star formation rate of 247 Myr −1 . Both production rates are in satisfactory agreement with current estimates from other studies of Perseus. Future observations should be able to distinguish between these two possibilities. If our model continues to provide a good fit to other star-forming regions, then the mass fraction of dense cores that becomes stars is double what is currently believed.

“…However, we found a large range of discrepancies in the distances to Ophiuchus and IC-348 members, leading us to carefully choose the most appropriate values, since these young members placed in the H−R diagram are sensitive to any variation of these distances ( Figure 2). We adopted a distance to the IC 348 Region based on the distance to the Perseus molecular cloud, that has been estimated in a wide range between 220 -380 pc (Harris, Morgan & Roman 1954;Herbig & Jones 1983;Cernis 1993;Scholz et al 1999;de Zeeuw et al 1999;Hirota et al 2008;Hirota 2010). We examined in detail the distance to the brightest cluster member, LRL 1.…”

Using Non-Redundant Mask interferometry (NRM), we searched for binary companions to objects previously classified as Transitional Disks (TD). These objects are thought to be an evolutionary stage between an optically thick disk and optically thin disk. We investigate the presence of a stellar companion as a possible mechanism of material depletion in the inner region of these disks, which would rule out an ongoing planetary formation process in distances comparable to the binary separation. For our detection limits, we implement a new method of completeness correction using a combination of randomly sampled binary orbits and Bayesian inference. The selected sample of 24 TDs belong to the nearby and young star forming regions: Ophiuchus (∼ 130 pc), Taurus-Auriga (∼ 140 pc) and IC348 ( ∼ 220 pc). These regions are suitable to resolve faint stellar companions with moderate to high confidence levels at distances as low as 2 au from the central star. With a total of 31 objects, including 11 known TDs and circumbinary disks from the literature, we have found that a fraction of 0.38 ± 0.09 of the SEDs of these objects are likely due to the tidal interaction between a close binary and its disk, while the remaining SEDs are likely the result of other internal processes such as photoevaporation, grain growth, planet disk interactions. In addition, we detected four companions orbiting outside the area of the truncation radii and we propose that the IR excesses of these systems are due to a disk orbiting a secondary companion
