First detection of the [CII] 158 micron line in the intermediate-velocity cloud Draco

N. Schneider, V. Ossenkopf-Okada, E. Keilmann +7

High-latitude intermediate-velocity clouds (IVCs) are part of the Milky Way's HI halo and originate from either a galactic fountain process or extragalactic gas infall. They are pa…

First detection of 13CH in the interstellar medium

Arshia M. Jacob, Karl M. Menten, Helmut Wiesemeyer +3

In recent years, a plethora of high spectral resolution observations of sub-mm and FIR transitions of methylidene (CH), have demonstrated this radical to be a valuable proxy for H2…

First astrophysical detection of the helium hydride ion (HeH)

Rolf Güsten, Helmut Wiesemeyer, David Neufeld +7

During the dawn of chemistry when the temperature of the young Universe had fallen below 4000 K, the ions of the light elements produced in Big Bang nucleosynthesis recombine…

A 1.3 cm Line Survey toward Orion KL

Y. Gong, C. Henkel, S. Thorwirth +6

Orion KL has served as a benchmark for spectral line searches throughout the (sub)millimeter regime. The main goal is to systematically study spectral characteristics of Orion KL i…

A strong magnetic field around the supermassive black hole at the centre of the Galaxy

R. P. Eatough, H. Falcke, R. Karuppusamy +20

The centre of our Milky Way harbours the closest candidate for a supermassive black hole. The source is thought to be powered by radiatively inefficient accretion of gas from its e…
