Recent observations of the deeply embedded L1551 IRS5 system permit the detailed examination of the properties of both the stellar binary and the binary jet. For the individual components of the stellar binary, we determine their masses, mass accretion rates, effective temperatures and luminosities. For the atomic wind/jet flow, we determine the mass loss rate, yielding observationally determined values of the ratio of the mass loss to the mass accretion rate, f. For the X-ray emitting region in the northern jet, we have obtained the jet-velocity and derive the extinction and the densities on different spatial scales. Examining the observational evidence within the framework of the x-wind theory leads us to conclude that these models are indeed potentially able to account for the observational data for this deeply embedded source.

The study of hot corinos in Solar-like protostars has been so far mostly limited to the Class 0 phase, hampering our understanding of their origin and evolution. In addition, recent evidence suggests that planet formation starts already during Class I phase, which, therefore, represents a crucial step in the future planetary system chemical composition. Hence, the study of hot corinos in Class I protostars has become of paramount importance. Here we report the discovery of a hot corino towards the prototypical Class I protostar L1551 IRS5, obtained within the ALMA Large Program FAUST. We detected several lines from methanol and its isopotologues ($^{13}$CH$_{rm 3}$OH and CH$_{rm 2}$DOH), methyl formate and ethanol. Lines are bright toward the north component of the IRS5 binary system, and a possible second hot corino may be associated with the south component. The methanol lines non-LTE analysis constrains the gas temperature ($sim$100 K), density ($geq$1.5$times$10$^{8}$ cm$^{-3}$), and emitting size ($sim$10 au in radius). All CH$_{rm 3}$OH and $^{13}$CH$_{rm 3}$OH lines are optically thick, preventing a reliable measure of the deuteration. The methyl formate and ethanol relative abundances are compatible with those measured in Class 0 hot corinos. Thus, based on the present work, little chemical evolution from Class 0 to I hot corinos occurs.
We performed mapping observations of the Class I protostellar binary system L1551 NE in the C$^{18}$O ($J$=3-2), $^{13}$CO ($J$=3-2), CS ($J$=7-6), and SO ($J_N$=7$_8$-6$_7$) lines with Atacama Submillimeter Telescope Experiment (ASTE). The ASTE C$^{ 18}$O data are combined with our previous SMA C$^{18}$O data, which show a $r sim$300-AU scale Keplerian disk around the protostellar binary system. The C$^{18}$O maps show a $sim$20000-AU scale protostellar envelope surrounding the central Keplerian circumbinary disk. The envelope exhibits a northeast (blue) - southwest (red) velocity gradient along the minor axis, which can be interpreted as a dispersing gas motion with an outward velocity of 0.3 km s$^{-1}$, while no rotational motion in the envelope is seen. In addition to the envelope, two $lesssim$4000 AU scale, high-velocity ($gtrsim$1.3 km s$^{-1}$) redshifted $^{13}$CO and CS emission components are found to $sim$40$^{primeprime}$ southwest and $sim$20$^{primeprime}$ west of the protostellar binary. These redshifted components are most likely outflow components driven from the neighboring protostellar source L1551 IRS 5, and are colliding with the envelope in L1551 NE. The net momentum, kinetic and internal energies of the L1551 IRS 5 outflow components are comparable to those of the L1551 NE envelope, and the interactions between the outflows and the envelope are likely to cause the dissipation of the envelope and thus suppression of the further growth of the mass and mass ratio of the central protostellar binary in L1551 NE.

We model the Class I source L1551 IRS 5, adopting a flattened infalling envelope surrounding a binary disk system and a circumbinary disk. With our composite model, we calculate self-consistently the spectral energy distribution of each component of the L1551 IRS 5 system, using additional constraints from recent observations by ISO, the water ice feature from observations with SpeX, the SCUBA extended spatial brightness distribution at sub-mm wavelengths, and the VLA spatial intensity distributions at 7 mm of the binary disks. We analyze the sensitivity of our results to the various parameters involved. Our results show that a flattened envelope collapse model is required to explain simultaneously the large scale fluxes and the water ice and silicate features. On the other hand, we find that the circumstellar disks are optically thick in the millimeter range and are inclined so that their outer parts hide the emission along the line of sight from their inner parts. We also find that these disks have lower mass accretion rates than the infall rate of the envelope.
We report ALMA Cycle 4 observations of the Class I binary protostellar system L1551 IRS 5 in the 0.9-mm continuum emission, C18O (J=3-2), OCS (J=28-27), and four other Band 7 lines. At ~0.07 (= 10 au) resolution in the 0.9 mm emission, two circumstel lar disks (CSDs) associated with the binary protostars are separated from the circumbinary disk (CBD). The CBD is resolved into two spiral arms, one connecting to the CSD around the northern binary source, Source N, and the other to Source S. As compared to the CBD in the neighboring protobinary system L1551 NE, the CBD in L1551 IRS 5 is more compact (r ~150 au) and the m=1 mode of the spirals found in L1551 NE is less obvious in L1551 IRS 5. Furthermore, the dust and molecular-line brightness temperatures of CSDs and CBD reach >260 K and >100 K, respectively, in L1551 IRS 5, much hotter than those in L1551 NE. The gas motions in the spiral arms are characterized by rotation and expansion. Furthermore, the transitions from the CBD to the CSD rotations at around the L2 and L3 Lagrangian points and gas motions around the L1 point are identified. Our numerical simulations reproduce the observed two spiral arms and expanding gas motion as a result of gravitational torques from the binary, transitions from the CBD to the CSD rotations, and the gas motion around the L1 point. The higher temperature in L1551 IRS 5 likely reflects the inferred FU-Ori event.
We studied the Class I protostar 2MASS 22352345+7517076 whose dramatic brightening between the IRAS, Akari, and WISE surveys was reported by Onozato et al. (2015). 2MASS 22352345+7517076 is a member of a small group of low-mass young stellar objects, associated with IRAS 22343+7501 in the molecular cloud Lynds 1251. The IRAS, ISO, Spitzer, Akari, Herschel, and WISE missions observed different stages of its outburst. Supplemented these data with archival and our own near-infrared observations, and considering the contributions of neighbouring sources to the mid-infrared fluxes we studied the nature and environment of the outbursting object, and its photometric variations from 1983 to 2017. The low-state bolometric luminosity Lbol ~ 32 Lsun is indicative of a 100000-200000 years old protostar of 1.6-1.8 solar masses. Its 2-micron brightness started rising between 1993 and 1998, reached a peak in 2009-2011, and started declining in 2015. Changes in the spectral energy distribution suggest that the outburst was preceded by a decade-long, slow brightening in the near-infrared. The actual accretion burst occurred between 2004 and 2007. We fitted the spectral energy distribution in the bright phases with simple accretion disc models. The modelling suggested an increase of the disc accretion rate from some 3.5times 10^{-7} Msun yr^{-1} to 1.1 times 10^{-4} Msun yr^{-1}. The central star accreted nearly 10^{-3} solar masses, about a Jupiter mass during the ten years of the outburst. We observed H_2 emission lines in the K-band spectrum during the fading phase in 2017. The associated optical nebulosity RNO 144 and the Herbig-Haro object HH 149 have not exhibited significant variation in shape and brightness during the outburst.
