Linear Filament and Nested Cluster Evolution Tomography (LANCET) I: Capture the Evolution of Dense Gas in 14-parsec Filament G316.8

Published in Astronomy & Astrophysics, 708, A251, 2026

G316.8 contains three adjacent regions with similar molecular-gas reservoirs but distinct evolutionary stages. The study uses matched observations to trace how dense gas structure, fragmentation, and star formation change along this sequence.
