This project investigates the formation of massive stars in the Galaxy, focusing on the early stages of their birth. Utilizing advanced astronomical facilities, the research aims to uncover the physical processes that lead to the development of these stars within specific structures.
Massive stars – with masses larger than 8Mo – are rare in the Galaxy.
However, they dominate the energetics of galaxies, shaping their structure and impacting on their evolution.
The formation of massive stars has recently become a hot topic in Astrophysics thanks to the advent of astronomical facilities operating at infrared (IR) wavelengths.
These facilities have revealed that massive stars are formed in filamentary structures viewed as shadows against the bright IR Galactic background (Infrar…
