We report high spatial resolution VLA observations of the low-mass star-forming region IRAS 16293-2422 using four molecular probes: ethyl cyanide (CH$_3$CH$_2$CN), methyl formate (CH$_3$OCHO), formic acid (HCOOH), and the ground vibrational state of silicon monoxide (SiO). Ethyl cyanide emiss ion has a spatial scale of $sim20$ and encompasses binary cores A and B as determined by continuum emission peaks. Surrounded by formic acid emission, methyl formate emission has a spatial scale of $sim6$and is confined to core B. SiO emission shows two velocity components with spatial scales less than 2$$ that map $sim2$ northeast of the A and B symmetry axis. The redshifted SiO is $sim2$ northwest of blueshifted SiO along a position angle of $sim135^o$ which is approximately parallel to the A and B symmetry axis. We interpret the spatial position offset in red and blueshifted SiO emission as due to rotation of a protostellar accretion disk and we derive $sim$1.4 M$_{odot}$ interior to the SiO emission. In the same vicinity, Mundy et al. (1986) also concluded rotation of a nearly edge-on disk from OVRO observations of much stronger and ubiquitous $^{13}$CO emission but the direction of rotation is opposite to the SiO emission findings. Taken together, SiO and $^{13}$CO data suggest evidence for a counter-rotating disk. Moreover, archival BIMA array $^{12}$CO data show an inverse P Cygni profile with the strongest absorption in close proximity to the SiO emission, indicating unambiguous material infall toward the counter-rotating protostellar disk at a new source location within the IRAS 16293-2422 complex. The details of these observations and our interpretations are discussed.

The protonated form of CO2, HOCO+, is assumed to be an indirect tracer of CO2 in the millimeter/submillimeter regime since CO2 lacks a permanent dipole moment. Here, we report the detection of two rotational emission lines (4 0,4-3 0,3) and (5 0,5-4 0,4) of HOCO+ in IRAS 16293-2422. For our observations, we have used EMIR heterodyne 3 mm receiver of the IRAM 30m telescope. The observed abundance of HOCO+ is compared with the simulations using the 3-phase NAUTILUS chemical model. Implications of the measured abundances of HOCO+ to study the chemistry of CO2 ices using JWST-MIRI and NIRSpec are discussed as well.

We present sensitive, high angular resolution ($sim$ 0.2 arcsec) submillimeter continuum and line observations of IRAS 16293-2422B made with the Atacama Large Millimeter/Submillimeter Array (ALMA). The 0.45 mm continuum observations reveal a single a nd very compact source associated with IRAS 16293-2422B. This submillimeter source has a deconvolved angular size of about 400 {it milli-arcseconds} (50 AU), and does not show any inner structure inside of this diameter. The H$^{13}$CN, HC$^{15}$N, and CH$_{3}$OH line emission regions are about twice as large as the continuum emission and reveal a pronounced inner depression or hole with a size comparable to that estimated for the submillimeter continuum. We suggest that the presence of this inner depression and the fact that we do not see inner structure (or a flat structure) in the continuum is produced by very optically thick dust located in the innermost parts of IRAS 16293-2422B. All three lines also show pronounced inverse P-Cygni profiles with infall and dispersion velocities larger than those recently reported from observations at lower frequencies, suggesting that we are detecting faster, and more turbulent gas located closer to the central object. Finally, we report a small east-west velocity gradient in IRAS 16293-2422B that suggests that its disk plane is likely located very close to the plane of the sky.

We have observed the Class 0 protostellar source IRAS 16293-2422 A in the C17O and H2CS lines as well as the 1.3 mm dust continuum with the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array at an angular resolution of ~0.1 (14 au). The continuum emission of the binary component, Source A, reveals the substructure consisting of 5 intensity peaks within 100 au from the protostar. The C17O emission mainly traces the circummultiple structure on a 300 au scale centered at the intensity centroid of the continuum, while it is very weak within the radius of 50 au from the centroid. The H2CS emission, in contrast, traces the rotating disk structure around one of the continuum peaks (A1). Thus, it seems that the rotation centroid of the circummultiple structure is slightly different from that of the disk around A1. We derive the rotation temperature by using the multiple lines of H2CS. As approaching to the protostar A1, the rotation temperature steeply rises up to 300 K or higher at the radius of 50 au from the protostar. It is likely due to a local accretion shock and/or the preferential protostellar heating of the transition zone from the circummultiple structure to the disk around A1. This position corresponds to the place where the organic molecular lines are reported to be enhanced. Since the rise of the rotation temperature of H2CS most likely represents the rise of the gas and dust temperatures, it would be related to the chemical characteristics of this prototypical hot corino.
The Class 0 protostar IRAS 16293$-$2422 Source A is known to be a binary system (A1 and A2) or even a multiple system, which processes a complex outflow structure. We have observed this source in the C$^{34}$S, SO, and OCS lines at 3.1 mm with the At acama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA). A substructure of this source is traced by our high angular-resolution observation (0farcs12; 20 au) of the continuum emission. The northwest-southeast (NW-SE) outflow on a 2arcsec scale is detected in the SO ($J_N$ = $2_2$--$1_1$) line. Based on the morphology of the SO distribution, this bipolar outflow structure seems to originate from the protostar A1 and its circumstellar disk, or the circummultiple structure of Source A. The rotation motion of the NW-SE outflow is detected in the SO and OCS emissions. We evaluate the specific angular momentum of the outflowing gas to be $(8.6 - 14.3) times 10^{-4}$ km s$^{-1}$ pc. If the driving source of this outflow is the protostar A1 and its circumstellar disk, it can be a potential mechanism to extract the specific angular momentum of the disk structure. These results can be a hint for the outflow launching mechanism in this source. Furthermore, they provide us with an important clue to resolve the complicated structure of IRAS 16293$-$2422 Source A.
We have analyzed rotational spectral line emission of OCS, CH3OH, HCOOCH3, and H2CS observed toward the low-mass Class 0 protostellar source IRAS 16293-2422 Source A at a sub-arcsecond resolution (~0.6 x 0.5) with ALMA. Significant chemical different iation is found at a 50 AU scale. The OCS line is found to well trace the infalling-rotating envelope in this source. On the other hand, the CH3OH and HCOOCH3 distributions are found to be concentrated around the inner part of the infalling-rotating envelope. With a simple ballistic model of the infalling-rotating envelope, the radius of the centrifugal barrier (a half of the centrifugal radius) and the protostellar mass are evaluated from the OCS data to be from 40 to 60 AU and from 0.5 to 1.0 Msun, respectively, assuming the inclination angle of the envelope/disk structure to be 60 degrees (90 degrees for the edge-on configuration). Although the protostellar mass is correlated with the inclination angle, the radius of the centrifugal barrier is not. This is the first indication of the centrifugal barrier of the infalling-rotating envelope in a hot corino source. CH3OH and HCOOCH3 may be liberated from ice mantles due to weak accretion shocks around the centrifugal barrier, and/or due to protostellar heating. The H2CS emission seems to come from the disk component inside the centrifugal barrier in addition to the envelope component. The centrifugal barrier plays a central role not only in the formation of a rotationally-supported disk but also in the chemical evolution from the envelope to the protoplanetary disk.
