XMM-Newton observation of 4U 1820-30: Broad band spectrum and the contribution of the cold interstellar medium

E. Costantini, C. Pinto, J. S. Kaastra +6

We present the analysis of the bright X-ray binary 4U 1820-30, based mainly on XMM-Newton-RGS data, but using complementary data from XMM-Epic, Integral, and Chandra-HETG, to inves…

Detection of HF emission from the Orion Bar

F. F. S. van der Tak, V. Ossenkopf, Z. Nagy +3

The clumpy density structure of photon-dominated regions is well established, but the physical properties of the clumps and of the surrounding interclump medium are only approximat…

Spectroscopic parameters for silacyclopropynylidene, SiC, from extensive astronomical observations toward CW Leo (IRC +10216) with the Herschel satellite

H. S. P. Müller, J. Cernicharo, M. Agúndez +5

A molecular line survey has been carried out toward the carbon-rich asymptotic giant branch star CW Leo employing the HIFI instrument on board of the Herschel satellite. Numerous f…

TIMASSS: The IRAS16293-2422 Millimeter And Submillimeter Spectral Survey. I. Observations, calibration and analysis of the line kinematics

E. Caux, C. Kahane, A. Castets +15

While unbiased surveys observable from ground-based telescopes have previously been obtained towards several high mass protostars, very little exists on low mass protostars. To fil…

The JCMT Spectral Legacy Survey: physical structure of the molecular envelope of the high-mass protostar AFGL2591

M. H. D. van der Wiel, F. F. S. van der Tak, M. Spaans +4

The understanding of the formation process of massive stars (>8 Msun) is limited, due to theoretical complications and observational challenges. We investigate the physical structu…

The X-ray quiescence of Swift J195509.6+261406 (GRB 070610): an optical bursting X-ray binary?

N. Rea, P. G. Jonker, G. Nelemans +4

We report on a 63ks Chandra observation of the X-ray transient Swift J195509.6+261406 discovered as the afterglow of what was first believed to be a long duration Gamma-Ray Burst (…
