The lower limits of disc fragmentation and the prospects for observing fragmenting discs
Dimitris Stamatellos, Anaelle Maury, Anthony Whitworth +1
A large fraction of brown dwarfs and low-mass H-burning stars may form by gravitational fragmentation of protostellar discs. We explore the conditions for disc fragmentation and we…
The QUaD Galactic Plane Survey II: A Compact Source Catalog
T. Culverhouse, P. Ade, J. Bock +28
We present a catalog of compact sources derived from the QUaD Galactic Plane Survey. The survey covers ~800 square degrees of the inner galaxy (|b|<4 degrees) in Stokes I, Q and U…
The Three-Dimensional Structure of Cassiopeia A
Tracey DeLaney, Lawrence Rudnick, M. D. Stage +9
We used the Spitzer Space Telescope's Infrared Spectrograph to map nearly the entire extent of Cassiopeia A between 5-40 micron. Using infrared and Chandra X-ray Doppler velocity m…
On the interaction of a thin, supersonic shell with a molecular cloud
S. Anathpindika, H. C. Bhatt
Molecular clouds (MCs) are stellar nurseries, however, formation of stars within MCs depends on the ambient physical conditions. MCs, over a free-fall time are exposed to numerous…
Deconvolution of Images from BLAST 2005: Insight into the K3-50 and IC 5146 Star-Forming Regions
Arabindo Roy, Peter A. R. Ade, James J. Bock +26
We present an implementation of the iterative flux-conserving Lucy-Richardson (L-R) deconvolution method of image restoration for maps produced by the Balloon-borne Large Aperture…
The fragmentation of expanding shells III: Oligarchic accretion and the mass spectrum of fragments
James E. Dale, Richard Wunsch, Rowan J. Smith +2
We use SPH simulations to investigate the gravitational fragmentation of expanding shells through the linear and non--linear regimes. The results are analysed using spherical harmo…
The formation of brown dwarfs in discs: Physics, numerics, and observations
Dimitris Stamatellos, Anthony Whitworth
A large fraction of brown dwarfs and low-mass stars may form by gravitational fragmentation of relatively massive (a few 0.1 Msun), extended (a few hundred AU) discs around Sun-lik…
The Balloon-Borne Large Aperture Submillimeter Telescope (BLAST) 2005: A 10 deg^2 Survey of Star Formation in Cygnus X
Arabindo Roy, Peter A. R. Ade, James J. Bock +27
We present Cygnus X in a new multi-wavelength perspective based on an unbiased BLAST survey at 250, 350, and 500 micron, combined with rich datasets for this well-studied region. O…
The BLAST View of the Star Forming Region in Aquila (ell=45deg,b=0deg)
Alana Rivera-Ingraham, Peter A. R. Ade, James J. Bock +24
We have carried out the first general submillimeter analysis of the field towards GRSMC 45.46+0.05, a massive star forming region in Aquila. The deconvolved 6 deg^2 (3\degree X 2\d…
The Luminosity, Mass, and Age Distributions of Compact Star Clusters in M83 Based on HST/WFC3 Observations
Rupali Chandar, Bradley C. Whitmore, Hwihyun Kim +21
The newly installed Wide Field Camera 3 (WFC3) on the Hubble Space Telescope has been used to obtain multi-band images of the nearby spiral galaxy M83. These new observations are t…
Modelling Herschel observations of infrared-dark clouds in the Hi-GAL survey
D. Stamatellos, M. Griffin, J. Kirk +5
We demonstrate the use of the 3D Monte Carlo radiative transfer code PHAETHON to model infrared-dark clouds (IRDCs) that are externally illuminated by the interstellar radiation fi…
The JCMT Legacy Survey of the Gould Belt: a first look at Serpens with HARP
S. F. Graves, J. S. Richer, J. V. Buckle +32
The Gould Belt Legacy Survey (GBS) on the JCMT has observed a region of 260 square arcminutes in 12CO J=3--2 emission, and a 190 square arcminute subset of this in 13CO and C18O to…
From filamentary clouds to prestellar cores to the stellar IMF: Initial highlights from the Herschel Gould Belt survey
Ph. André, A. Men'shchikov, S. Bontemps +54
We summarize the first results from the Gould Belt survey, obtained toward the Aquila Rift and Polaris Flare regions during the 'science demonstration phase' of Herschel. Our 70-50…
The fragmentation of expanding shells II: Thickness matters
Richard Wunsch, James E. Dale, Jan Palous +1
We study analytically the development of gravitational instability in an expanding shell having finite thickness. We consider three models for the radial density profile of the she…
Detection of anhydrous hydrochloric acid, HCl, in IRC+10216 with the Herschel SPIRE and PACS spectrometers
J. Cernicharo, L. Decin, M. J. Barlow +31
We report on the detection of anhydrous hydrochloric acid (hydrogen chlorine, HCl) in the carbon-rich star IRC+10216 using the spectroscopic facilities onboard the Herschel satelli…
The Herschel view of star formation in the Rosette molecular cloud under the influence of NGC 2244
N. Schneider, F. Motte, S. Bontemps +43
The Rosette molecular cloud is promoted as the archetype of a triggered star-formation site. This is mainly due to its morphology, because the central OB cluster NGC 2244 has blown…

J. Di Francesco, S. Sadavoy, F. Motte +40
We present a preliminary analysis of the small-scale structure found in new 70-520 micron continuum maps of the Rosette molecular cloud (RMC), obtained with the SPIRE and PACS inst…
