Title: Galaxy evolution with galaxy mergers
Abstract:
In the framework of hierarchical structure formation based on
cold dark matter, galaxies like the Milky Way grow up through
numerous interactions and mergers of many less massive galaxies.
These signatures are mainly imprinted in the halo region.
In recent years, the Gaia project and the Subaru HSC survey have
revealed many tidal remnants in the haloes of the Milky Way and
Andromeda galaxy, respectively. In this talk, I will provide an overview of
the halo formation process revealed by a combination of observations
and numerical simulations, referring to recent observational progress.
I also focus on the interaction between massive galaxies. I will introduce
the relationship between AGN activity, galaxy density, and interaction of
galaxies based on our recent observations and numerical simulations.

Title: Radiation hydrodynamics simulations of massive star cluster formation

Abstract:
Globular clusters (GCs) are believed to form in early galaxies, but the formation mechanism of GCs are still debated. In the star cluster formation, radiative feedback hampers star formation and increase of stellar density. Hence, the stellar feedback is a key factor in determination of star cluster properties. In this talk, I will review the star cluster formation and star formation quenching mechanisms, and introduce our recent simulations of massive star cluster formation and metal enrichment in the GC formation.

Title:Insights into Chemical Complexity and Diversity in Young Stellar Object
Abstract:Over 300 molecular species have been identified in the interstellar medium and circumstellar shells, revealing a diverse landscape of chemical complexity. Young Stellar Objects (YSOs) exhibit a wide variety of both simple and complex organic molecules (COMs), intricately linked to their physical properties and evolutionary stages. These objects play a pivotal role in shaping their surroundings, acting as potent sources of radiative and mechanical feedback that significantly influence the formation of interstellar molecules. Analyzing the millimeter and submillimeter spectra of YSOs offers crucial clues to the formation of numerous COMs, enhancing our understanding of the chemical complexity within these stellar nurseries. In this talk, I will discuss observational results from a large sample of YSOs and elaborate on how chemical diversity depends on the physical properties of the sources. I will also present astrochemical modeling results to describe the chemical evolution of several species and discuss how these models can be used to infer chemical origin and the physical properties of YSOs. By summarizing the current state of observational studies and astrochemical models, this presentation aims to elucidate the processes through which chemical complexity is attained in diverse YSOs.

Title:Tracing the impact of Evolved Stars on the Galactic Chemical enrichment (ESGC)

Abstract:
In this presentation, I will discuss ESGC project, which is awarded funding from the Research Council of Norway.
The primary focus of the project is on evolved stars and their impact on enriching the chemical composition of interstellar mediums and galaxies.
I will begin by providing an introduction to evolved stars and the chemistry active in their outflow.
Solar-type stars eject a substantial amount of heavy elements and dust particles to the interstellar medium through strong stellar winds at late phases of stellar evolution, known as the asymptotic giant branch (AGB) phase, and therefore significantly influence the chemical composition of galaxies.In ESGC project, we aim to target two main gaps in our knowledge that can be significantly advanced with current observational facilities, new laboratory molecular data, and upgraded chemical models. These gaps concern the role of AGB stars in the production of fluorine in our Galaxy, which is an essential element for the maintenance of solidity in our bones and teeth, and the impact of a chromospheric UV radiation field on the chemistry and dust-formation process around AGB stars. Through this project, we aim to create a more realistic picture of the recycled materials and stardust from evolved stars by considering the impact of internal UV radiation in the chemical models. Finally, I will outline the observational and simulation approaches we are planning to use to achieve the main objectives of the project and highlighting the unique opportunities associated with each approach.

Title: Revealing the physics of Young Stellar Objects with GRAVITY/VLTI
Abstract: It is well-established that low- to intermediate-mass stars form via accreting disks. Over the past decade, a remarkable variety of morphologies have been uncovered through interferometric observations at radio wavelengths (e.g., with the VLA and ALMA) and, more recently, with infrared coronagraphs (e.g., with SPHERE/VLT and GPI).
Infrared interferometers have also been employed to study these objects, allowing us (i) to resolve the inner rims of the accreting disks, (ii) the detection of accretion signatures, and (iii) the tracing of formation regions of lines such as BrG and CO.
This presentation will review some of these discoveries obtained with the GRAVITY instrument at the Very Large Telescope Interferometer.
Specifically, I will showcase state-of-the-art milliarcsecond resolution images (of both continuum and line) of several sources (HD 163296, HD 45677, and R CrA), where binarity and variability of the inner rim are observed at spatial scales less than 5 au from the forming star.
Furthermore, I will discuss open questions that we aim to address in the coming years with the anticipated advancements in infrared interferometry.
In particular, I will highlight the new capabilities of GRAVITY(+) and my role as Co-PI in the design and construction of the new high-spectral resolution mode of this instrument, which is crucial for studying young stellar objects.

Title: Observational study of high-mass star formation at the junction of filaments
Abstract:
Understanding high-mass star formation is an important pillar of astronomical research, due to the large impact of such sources on their natal environment.
Various paradigms have been proposed for the formation of such stellar sources, with hub filament systems (HFS) having emerged as an important contender for understanding not only how massive stars form, but also the evolution of a molecular cloud as it collapses and fragments to form stars. In this talk, I present the results of my recent observational analysis of some high-mass star forming regions, carried out using molecular data cubes, complemented by other multiwavelength data. We discuss the complex nature of such star forming regions, the conundrums faced in analysis of hubs and filamentary structures, and the further work one needs to undertake to fully comprehend the connection between(high-mass) star formation and HFS.

Title: Unraveling the Low-Metallicity Merging Dwarf Galaxies: Insights into Starburst and Metal Dilution/Enrichment

Abstract:
Understanding the physical mechanisms driving starbursts within dwarf galaxies remains a challenge in astrophysics. Moreover, the impact of mergers on star formation activity in these galaxies remains unclear. In this talk, we employ observations from the VLT/MUSE and ALMA to investigate how the merger process influences star formation activities in metal-poor dwarf galaxies, focusing on galaxies of Haro 11 and NGC 4809/4810. Haro 11, situated in the late-stage merger phase, exhibits similar morphology and kinematics to the Antennae galaxy, offering valuable insights into the merger-induced starburst phenomenon. Conversely, the ongoing collision between NGC 4809 and NGC 4810 presents a unique opportunity to examine the effects of mergers on dwarf galaxies in real time, particularly within their overlapping regions. We find post-merger between low mass galaxies (e.g., Haro 11) can trigger global starburst, similar to ULIRGs. Notably, Haro 11 could be the analog of high-z dwarf starbursts and the potential progenitor of the nearby less massive elliptical galaxies. Furthermore, we find that NGC 4809/4810 interaction zone show enhanced SFR (sSFR), and deficient metallicity, indicating the capacity of dwarf galaxy mergers to instigate significant star formation activity even within metal-poor environments. Additionally, we detect clear evidence of metal enrichment resulting from the Type Ic SN 2011jm within NGC 4809, representing a pioneering detection of chemical pollution through stellar feedback beyond the Local Volume. These findings shed light on the underlying mechanisms driving starburst and stellar feedback processes within the dwarf galaxies.

Title: Review on Pan et al. (2022) “The terrestrial planet formation around M dwarfs: in situ, inward migration, or reversed migration”
Abstract of the paper:
Terrestrial planets are commonly observed to orbit M dwarfs with close-in trajectories. In this work, we extensively perform N-body simulations of planetesimal accretion with three models of in situ, inward migration, and reversed migration to explore terrestrial formation in tightly compact systems of M dwarfs. In the simulations, the solid discs are assumed to be 0.01 per cent of the masses of host stars and spread from 0.01 to 0.5 au with the surface density profile scaling with r−k according to the observations. Our results show that the in-situ scenario may produce 7.77+3.23 −3.77 terrestrial planets with an average mass of 1.23+4.01 −0.93 M⊕ around M dwarfs. The number of planets tends to increase as the disc slope is steeper or with a larger stellar mass. Moreover, we show that 2.55+1.45 −1.55 planets with a mass of 3.76+8.77 −3.46 M⊕ are formed in the systems via inward migration, while 2.85+1.15 −0.85 planets with 3.01+13.77 −2.71 M⊕ are yielded under reversed migration. Migration scenarios can also deliver plentiful water from the exterior of the ice line to the interior due to more efficient accretion. The simulation outcomes of the reversed migration model produce the best match with observations, being suggestive of a likely mechanism for planetary formation around M dwarfs

Title: Effect of stellar wind on SS433’s jet propagation
Abstract:
SS433 is an X-ray binary system consisting of a star and a compact star, and the compact star is known to emit spiral binaries. The jets propagate more than 100 pc; in Ohmura et al (2021) and other groups, uniform jets injected from 1 pc propagated 100 pc. But one of the important questions is how to travel to 1pc from the ejection region.
Therefore, in this study, we evaluate the propagation of the jet within 1pc including the effect of stellar winds. Since the orbital period of the binary is shorter than the jet propagation timescale, we assume the propagation area becomes turbulence formed by the stellar wind. We put turbulent velocity fields of 0.1% and 0.01% of the jet velocity in the ambient around the jet to see the effect of the turbulence on the jet propagation.
