Welcome to the COMPASS website

COMPASS (Complex Organic Molecules in Protostars with ALMA Spectral Surveys) is an ALMA Large Program to systematically characterise the presence of complex organic molecules of a sample of 11 deeply embedded low-mass protostars through unbiased spectral surveys. In ALMA's Cycle 9 (2022) the program was awarded what corresponds to 125 hours of observing time.

Latest news (June 13th 2024): Data collection is proceeding at a steady pace; first papers in preparation.
