A First Look at the Auriga-California Giant Molecular Cloud With Herschel and the CSO: Census of the Young Stellar Objects and the Dense Gas

Paul M. Harvey, Cassandra Fallscheer, Adam Ginsburg +7

We have mapped the Auriga/California molecular cloud with the Herschel PACS and SPIRE cameras and the Bolocam 1.1 mm camera on the Caltech Submillimeter Observatory (CSO) with the…

Spectral classification of the brightest objects in the galactic star forming region W40

R. Y. Shuping, William D. Vacca, Marc Kassis +1

We present high S/N, moderate resolution near-infrared spectra, as well as 10 micron imaging, for the brightest members of the central stellar cluster in the W40 HII region, obtain…

A self-consistent model of Galactic stellar and dust infrared emission and the abundance of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons

Thomas P. Robitaille, Ed Churchwell, Robert A. Benjamin +4

We present a self-consistent three-dimensional Monte-Carlo radiative transfer model of the stellar and dust emission in the Milky-Way, and have computed synthetic observations of t…

Herschel far-infrared photometric monitoring of protostars in the Orion Nebula Cluster

N. Billot, M. Morales-Calderon, J. R. Stauffer +2

We have obtained time series observations of the Orion Nebula Cluster at 70 microns and 160 microns from the Herschel/PACS Photometer. This represents the first wide-field far-infr…

Massive Quiescent Cores in Orion: Dynamical State Revealed by High-Resolution Ammonia Maps

D. Li, J. Kauffmann, Q. Zhang +1

We present combined VLA and Green Bank Telescope images of \ammonia\ inversion transitions (1,1) and (2,2) toward OMC2 and OMC3. We focus on the relatively quiescent Orion cores, w…

Is the Taurus B213 Region a True Filament?: Observations of Multiple Cyanoacetylene Transitions

Di Li, Paul F. Goldsmith

We have obtained spectra of the J=2-1 and J=10-9 transitions of cyanoacetylene (\hc3n) toward a collection of positions in the most prominent filament, B213, in the Taurus molecula…

13CO Cores in Taurus Molecular Cloud

Lei Qian, Di Li, Paul Goldsmith

Young stars form in molecular cores, which are dense condensations within molecular clouds. We have searched for molecular cores traced by CO emission in the Taur…

First Science Observations with SOFIA/FORCAST: 6 to 37 micron Imaging of the Central Orion Nebula

R. Y. Shuping, Mark R. Morris, Terry L. Herter +9

We present new mid-infrared images of the central region of the Orion Nebula using the newly commissioned SOFIA airborne telescope and its 5 -- 40 micron camera FORCAST. The 37.1 m…
