A search for pre- and proto-brown dwarfs in the dark cloud Barnard 30
  with ALMA
  In this work we present ALMA continuum observations at 880 $\mu$m of 30
sub-mm cores previously identified with APEX/LABOCA at 870$\mu$m in the Barnard
30 cloud. The main goal is to characterize the youngest and lowest mass
population in the cloud. As a result, we report the detection of five (out of
30) spatially unresolved sources with ALMA, with estimated masses between 0.9
and 67 M$_{\rm Jup}$. From these five sources, only two show gas emission. The
analysis of multi-wavelength photometry from these two objects, namely B30-LB14
and B30-LB19, is consistent with one Class II- and one Class I low-mass stellar
object, respectively. The gas emission is consistent with a rotating disk in
the case of B30-LB14, and with an oblate rotating envelope with infall
signatures in the case of LB19. The remaining three ALMA detections do not have
infrared counterparts and can be classified as either deeply embedded objects
or as starless cores if B30 members. In the former case, two of them (LB08 and
LB31) show internal luminosity upper limits consistent with Very Low Luminosity
objects, while we do not have enough information for LB10. In the starless core
scenario, and taking into account the estimated masses from ALMA and the
APEX/LABOCA cores, we estimate final masses for the central objects in the
substellar domain, so they could be classified as pre-BD core candidates.
