Summary

The G24.78+0.08 source is examined as a multiple core and sub-core complex in which both ultra- and hyper-compact HII locations are identified, along with outflows, accretion disks, and hot cores. Molecular emission lines as well as radio recombination lines (RRLs) and free–free emission offer evidence for thermal, pressure, and dynamical (including infall and rotation) kinematics. Molecular line signatures trace HII/hot core interactions, and also enable estimates of the physical parameters of HMSF accretion disks (such as density, temperature, mass, and radius).
