Detection of two power-law tails in the probability distribution functions of massive GMCs
N. Schneider, S. Bontemps, P. Girichidis +20
We report the novel detection of complex high-column density tails in the probability distribution functions (PDFs) for three high-mass star-forming regions (CepOB3, MonR2, NGC6334…
The link between molecular cloud structure and turbulence
N. Schneider, S. Bontemps, R. Simon +7
We aim to better understand how the spatial structure of molecular clouds is governed by turbulence. For that, we study the large-scale spatial distribution of low density molecula…
The physical properties of the dust in the RCW 120 HII region as seen by Herschel
L. D. Anderson, A. Zavagno, J. A. Rodon +41
Context. RCW 120 is a well-studied, nearby Galactic HII region with ongoing star formation in its surroundings. Previous work has shown that it displays a bubble morphology at mid-…
The Structure of Cold Molecular Cloud Cores
D. Ward-Thompson, D. J. Nutter, J. M. Kirk +1
A brief summary is presented of our current knowledge of the structure of cold molecular cloud cores that do not contain protostars, sometimes known as starless cores. The most cen…
Debris disks around stars in the NIKA2 era
J. -F. Lestrade, J. -C. Augereau, M. Booth +42
The new NIKA2 camera at the IRAM 30m radiotelescope was used to observe three known debris disks in order to constrain the SED of their dust emission in the millimeter wavelength d…
Strongly induced collapse in the Class 0 protostar NGC 1333 IRAS 4A
A. Belloche, P. Hennebelle, P. Andre
The onset of gravitational collapse in cluster-forming clouds is still poorly known. Our goal is to use the Class 0 protostar IRAS 4A, which is undergoing collapse in the active mo…
