CARMA-NRO Orion Survey: Unbiased Survey of Dense Cores and Core Mass Functions in Orion A

The mass distribution of dense cores is a potential key to understanding the process of star formation. Applying dendrogram analysis to the CARMA-NRO Orion C ^18 O ( J = 1–0) data, we identify 2342 dense cores, about 22% of which have virial ratios smaller than 2 and can be classified as gravitation...
