ATOMS: ALMA three-millimetre observations of massive star-forming regions-XVII. High-mass star-formation through a large-scale collapse in IRAS 15394-5358

Hub-filament systems are considered as natural sites for high-mass star formation. Kinematic analysis of the surroundings of hub-filaments is essential to better understand high-mass star formation within such systems. In this work, we present a detailed study of the massive Galactic protocluster IRAS 15394 - 5358, using continuum and molecular line data from the ALMA three-millimetre observations of massive star-forming regions (ATOMS) survey. The 3 mm dust continuum map reveals the fragmentation of the massive (M=843M ((R))) clump into six cores. The core C-1A is the largest (radius = 0.04pc), the most massive (M=157 M ((R))), and lies within the dense central region, along with two smaller cores (M=7 and 3M((R) )). The fragmentation process is consistent with the thermal Jeans fragmentation mechanism and virial analysis shows that all the cores have small virial parameter values (alpha(vir) << 2), suggesting that the cores are gravitationally bound. The mass versus radius relation indicates that three cores can potentially form at least a single massive star. The integrated intensity map of (HCO+)-C-13 shows that the massive clump is associated with a hub-filament system, where the central hub is linked with four filaments. A sharp velocity gradient is observed towards the hub, suggesting a global collapse where the filaments are actively feeding the hub. We discuss the role of global collapse and the possible driving mechanisms for the massive star formation activity in the protocluster.
