1. Protostellar jets and outflows — what ALMA can achieve? — 平野 尚美 (Naomi Hirano) 中研院天文所 (ASIAA)

2. Back to 1980... Discovery of the bipolar molecular outflow from L1551 IRS5 Snell, Loren & Plambeck (1980)

3. A scenario of star formation

4. Why we study jets and outflows? Jets are ubiquitous from proto brown dwarfs (possibly proto planets), protostars, evolved stars, to active galactic nuclei Key words accretion, angular momentum, bipolar Jets from young stellar objects (protostars) spectroscopic observations allow us to study their kinematics → driving mechanism

5. Issues to be addressed ‣ Can we see the primary jet ejected from the star? CO outflows are likely to be swept-up ambient gas ≠ primary ejecta ‣ Are the jets and outflows transferring the excess angular momentum from accreting material? ‣ Roles of magnetic field Flow geometry v.s. magnetic field ‣ When and how jets and outflows start, and how they evolve?

6. Highly-collimated jet from HH211 driving source: cold (T bo l ~ 33 K) and low luminosity (3.6 L sun ) protostar CO J=2-1 observed with the JCMT angular resolution: 20” McCaughrean et al. (1994) Low velocity - a pair of cavities High velocity - narrow jet CO J=2-1 observed with the PdBI angular resolution: 1.5” Gueth et al. (1999)

7. Highly-collimated jet: an important link between the primary jet and entrained outflow HH211 Green: H 2 in NIR, Blue & Red: SiO J=5-4 Hirano et al. (2006)

8. Current achievement with the SMA HH211 SiO J=8-7 0.46”x 0.36” 0.35”x 0.23” 0.24”x 0.22” Lee et al. (2009) The innermost pair of knots ‣ C-shaped bending ‣ ~4 sub-knots ‣ transverse width < 40 AU

9. Observations with ALMA — 1 Search for the evidence of jet rotation Launhardt et al. (2009) ‣ Theoretical prediction The jet is carrying out the excess angular momentum from accreting material ➡ The jet is spinning? ‣ Observationally, only one clear example has been known ‣ CO J=2-1 jet in CB26 1 Myr old star much older than the protostars in main accretion phase (< 10 5 yr)

10. The velocity gradient across the SiO jet in HH211 — a hint of jet rotation? —  The NE side of the jet shows slightly larger velocity as compared to the SW side  The mean velocity gradient ~0.5 km/s at ~10 AU (0.035”) 0.24” x 0.22”0.1” x 0.1” Lee et al. (2009)

11. The velocity gradient across the SiO jet in HH212 SN: ~1 km/s @ 24 AU SS: ~1 km/s @ 73 AU 0.36” x 0.33” 0.1” x 0.1” Lee et al. (2008)

12. Search for the rotation in the HH211 & HH212 jets ‣ Targets: HH211 & HH212  The axes of these jets are close to the plane of the sky ➡ suitable for searching the velocity gradient across the jets ‣ Lines: SiO J=8-7, SO N J =8 9 -7 8, CO J=3-2 ‣ 1 pointing centered at the protostelar positions ‣ Angular resolution: ~ 0.1”  the jets need to be spatially resolved along their minor axes

13. Observations with ALMA — 2 Time variability of the jets

14. HH211 jet in 2004 and 2008 beam size: 1.28” x 0.84” time interval: 3.6 yrs proper motion: ~0.13” ± 0.04” per year transverse velocity: 170±60 km/s The SiO emission from the innermost knot pair has increased

15. Multi-epoch observations at ~01”resolution ‣ Targets: HH211 & HH212 ‣ Lines: SiO J=8-7, SO N J =8 9 -7 8, CO J=3-2 ‣ 1 pointing centered at the protostelar positions ‣ Angular resolution: ~ 0.1” ‣ proper motion of the HH211 knots (0.13”per yr) can be detectable in 1 yr ‣ 3-epoch observations separated by 1 yr ‣ Variation of the structure of the innermost knots (e.g. new ejection event) is expected

16. Observations with ALMA — 3 B-field geometry the jets Polarized CO J=2-1 and dust continuum emission in NGC 1333 IRAS 4 Girart, Crutcher & Rao (1999)Girart, Rao, & Marrone (2006)

17. B-field measurements using the polarized molecular lines ‣ Targets: HH211 & L1448C ‣ The SiO emission is bright in these sources ‣ Lines: SiO J=8-7, SO N J =8 9 -7 8, CO J=3-2 ‣ 3--5 pointings (cover the inner ~30”area) ‣ Angular resolution: ~ 0.3”-- 0.5” ‣ Polarization measurements ‣ High dynamic range of >50 is necessary ‣ B-field in the jet v.s. B-field in the disk (from dust continuum observations) ‣ B-field in the jet v.s. B-field in the outflow shell

18. Observations with ALMA — 4 Search for the highly-collimated molecular jets in protostellar outflows ‣ Highly-collimated jet like HH211 is not common ‣ Only seen in the extremely young sources CO J=2-1 outflow from B335 Yen et al. (2010)

19. Search for the extremely high velocity jet in class 0 protostars ‣ Targets: Class 0 protostars without extremely high velocity jet ‣ First, try to start from B335 ‣ Next, go to the various class 0 protostars ‣ Lines: CO J=3-2 or CO J=2-1 ‣ 1 pointing centered at the protostelar positions ‣ Angular resolution: ~ 1” ‣ High sensitivity is essential
