We have investigated the global dynamical state of the Integral Shaped Filament in the Orion A cloud using new N$_2$H$^+$ (1-0) large-scale, IRAM30m observations. Our analysis of its internal gas dynamics reveals the presence of accelerated motions towards the Orion Nebula Cluster, showing a characteristic blue-shifted profile centred at the position of the OMC-1 South region. The properties of these observed gas motions (profile, extension, and magnitude) are consistent with the expected accelerations for the gravitational collapse of the OMC-1 region and explain both the physical and kinematic structure of this cloud.

BISTRO Survey: Gravity-Dominated and Magnetically Regulated Star Formation in M17 SW
High-resolution magnetic field maps of M17 SW reveal gravity-dominated energy budget with magnetic fields regulating collapse and accretion channels in a near-equipartition state.
