Measuring the ionisation fraction in a jet from a massive protostar

Sanna, A.; Purser, S. J. D.; Ray, T. P. +7 more

It is important to determine if massive stars form via disc accretion, like their low-mass counterparts. Theory and observation indicate that protostellar jets are a natural consequence of accretion discs and are likely to be crucial for removing angular momentum during the collapse. However, massive protostars are typically rarer, more distant an…
