The segregation of starless and protostellar clumps in the Hi-GAL l=224deg region
L. Olmi, M. Cunningham, D. Elia +1
Stars form in dense, dusty structures, which are embedded in larger clumps of molecular clouds often showing a clear filamentary structure on large scales (> 1pc). One of the best-…
Herschel-HIFI observations of H2O, NH3 and N2H+ toward high-mass starless and proto-stellar clumps identified by the Hi-GAL survey

Ionization toward the high-mass star-forming region NGC 6334 I
J. L. Morales Ortiz, C. Ceccarelli, D. C. Lis +3
Context. Ionization plays a central role in the gas-phase chemistry of molecular clouds. Since ions are coupled with magnetic fields, which can in turn counteract gravitational col…
