We have carried out sensitive continuum observations toward the Ophiuchus A star-forming region using the Karl G. Jansky Very Large Array (VLA) at 10GHz over a field-of-view of 6' with a spatial resolution of {theta}_maj_x{theta}_min_~0.4"x0.2". We achieved a 5{mu}Jy/beam root-mean-square noise level at the center of our mosaic field of view. Among the eighteen sources we detected, sixteen are YSOs (three Class 0, five Class I, six Class II, and two Class III) and two are extragalactic candidates.We find that thermal dust emission generally contributes less that 30% of the emission at 10GHz. The radio emission is dominated by other types of emission such as gyro-synchrotron radiation from active magnetospheres, free-free emission from thermal jets, free-free emission from the outflowing photo-evaporated disk material, and/or synchrotron emission from accelerated cosmic-rays in jet or protostellar surface shocks. These different types of emission could not be clearly disentangled. Our non-detections towards Class II/III disks suggest that extreme UV-driven photoevaporation is insufficient to explain the disk dispersal, assuming that the contribution of UV photoevaporating stellar winds to radio flux does not evolve with time. The sensitivity of our data cannot exclude photoevaporation due to X-ray photons as an efficient mechanism for disk dispersal. Deeper surveys with the Square Kilometre Array will be able to provide strong constraints on disk photoevaporation.2019A&A...631a..58Chttps://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/cat/J/A+A/631/A58CatalogResearchIsServedByTAP VizieR generic serviceIsServedByConesearch servicehttps://cds.unistra.fr/vizier-org/licences_vizier.htmlhttps://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/A+A/631/A58https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/A+A/631/A58http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/A+A/631/A58https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/A+A/631/A58https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/A+A/631/A58http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/A+A/631/A58GETtext/xml+votablehttps://tapvizier.cds.unistra.fr/TAPVizieR/tapCone search capability for table J/A+A/631/A58/list (Information on fits imae)https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/conesearch/J/A+A/631/A58/list?https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/conesearch/J/A+A/631/A58/list?http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/conesearch/J/A+A/631/A58/list?GETtext/xml+votable180.050000true246.59743-24.388270.0055555555555555566/42981https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/moc/J/A+A/631/A58?format=asciiRadiodefaultJ/A+A/631/A58/listInformation on fits imaeNyNumber of pixels along Y-axismeta.numberintrecnoRecord number assigned by the VizieR team.
