A 1000 AU Scale Molecular Outflow Driven by a Protostar with an age of
  <4000 Years
  To shed light on the early phase of a low-mass protostar formation process,
we conducted interferometric observations towards a protostar GF9-2 using the
CARMA and SMA. The observations have been carried out in the CO J=3-2 line and
in the continuum emission at the wavelengths of 3 mm, 1 mm and 850 micron. All
the continuum images detected a single point-like source with a radius of
250+/-80 AU at the center of the previously known ~3 Msun molecular cloud core.
A compact emission is detected towards the object at the Spitzer MIPS and IRAC
bands as well as the four bands at the WISE. Our spectroscopic imaging of the
CO line revealed that the continuum source is driving a 1000 AU scale molecular
outflow, including a pair of lobes where a collimated "higher" velocity red
lobe exists inside a poorly collimated "lower" velocity red lobe. These lobes
are rather young and the least powerful ones so far detected. A protostellar
mass of M~<0.06 Msun was estimated using an upper limit of the protostellar age
of (4+/-1)x10^3 yrs and an inferred non-spherical steady mass accretion rate of
~10^{-5} Msun/yr. Together with results from an SED analysis, we discuss that
the outflow system is driven by a protostar whose surface temperature
of~3,000K, and that the natal cloud core is being dispersed by the outflow.
