Blue-asymmetric spectral lines appear in 50-60% of dense cores within massive dark clumps, showing that gravitational collapse operates at core scales from prestellar stages onward and supports hierarchical star formation.
ALMA comparison finds starless cores in evolved IRBCs have ~2x higher median mass and density than in early IRDCs, favoring competitive accretion over massive prestellar core models for high-mass star formation.
Multi-wavelength observations identify a compact hub-filament system in G286.21+0.17 whose core properties follow steep radial power laws consistent with competitive accretion.
New observations confirm hourglass magnetic fields at clump scales in G35.20-0.74, with strengths of approximately 600 μG in G35N and 850 μG in G35S, supporting magnetically regulated collapse in G35N and feedback influence in G35S.
