The water abundance behind interstellar shocks: results from /PACS and /IRS observations of HO, CO, and H

David A. Neufeld, Antoine Gusdorf, Rolf Güsten +7

We have investigated the water abundance in shock-heated molecular gas, making use of measurements of far-infrared CO and HO line emissions in combination with $Spit…

The Green Bank Telescope Maps the Dense, Star-Forming Gas in the Nearby Starburst Galaxy M82

Amanda A. Kepley, Adam K. Leroy, David Frayer +3

Observations of the Milky Way and nearby galaxies show that dense molecular gas correlates with recent star formation, suggesting that the formation of this gas phase may help regu…

Chemical modeling of the L1498 and L1517B prestellar cores: CO and HCO+ depletion

S. Maret, E. A Bergin, M. Tafalla

Prestellar cores exhibit a strong chemical differentiation, which is mainly caused by the freeze-out of molecules onto the grain surfaces. Understanding this chemical structure is…
