Detection of magnetic fields in the circumgalactic medium of nearby galaxies using Faraday rotation

V. Heesen, S. P. O'Sullivan, M. Brüggen +15

Context. The existence of magnetic fields in the circumgalactic medium (CGM) is largely unconstrained. Their detection is important as magnetic fields can have a significant impact…

Physical Processes in Star Formation

Philipp Girichidis, Stella S. R. Offner, Alexei G. Kritsuk +6

Star formation is a complex multi-scale phenomenon that is of significant importance for astrophysics in general. Stars and star formation are key pillars in observational astronom…

Complex organic molecules in strongly UV-irradiated gas

S. Cuadrado, J. R. Goicoechea, J. Cernicharo +3

We investigate the presence of COMs in strongly UV-irradiated interstellar molecular gas. We have carried out a complete millimetre line survey using the IRAM30m telescope towards…

Nascent bipolar outflows associated with the first hydrostatic core candidates Barnard 1b-N and 1b-S

M. Gerin, J. Pety, A. Fuente +3

In the theory of star formation, the first hydrostatic core (FHSC) phase is a critical step in which a condensed object emerges from a prestellar core. This step lasts about one th…

Chemical probes of turbulence in the diffuse medium: the TDR model

Benjamin Godard, Edith Falgarone, Guillaume Pineau Des Forêts

Context. Tens of light hydrides and small molecules have now been detected over several hundreds sight lines sampling the diffuse interstellar medium (ISM) in both the Solar neighb…

SiO emission from low- and high-velocity shocks in Cygnus-X massive dense clumps

A. Duarte-Cabral, S. Bontemps, F. Motte +4

We used PdBI observations of SiO (2-1) to investigate the morphology and profile of the SiO emission within several massive dense clumps (MDCs) in Cygnus-X. We find that most molec…

Direct numerical simulations of the galactic dynamo in the kinematic growing phase

Christophe Gissinger, Sebastien Fromang, Emmanuel Dormy

We present kinematic simulations of a galactic dynamo model based on the large scale differential rotation and the small scale helical fluctuations due to supernova explosions. We…
