Rotating molecular outflows: the young T Tauri star in CB26

R. Launhardt, Ya. Pavlyuchenkov, F. Gueth +7

The disk-outflow connection is thought to play a key role in extracting excess angular momentum from a forming proto-star. Though jet rotation has been observed in a few objects, n…

HCO mapping of the Horsehead : Tracing the illuminated dense molecular cloud surfaces

Maryvonne Gerin, Javier R. Goicoechea, Jérôme Pety +1

Far-UV photons strongly affect the physical and chemical state of molecular gas in the vicinity of young massive stars. We have obtained maps of the HCO and H13CO+ ground state lin…

The CO line SED and atomic carbon in IRAS F10214+4724

Y. Ao, A. Weiss, D. Downes +3

Using the IRAM 30m telescope and the Plateau de Bure interferometer we have detected the \ctwo and the CO 32, 43, 65, 76 transitions as well as the dust continuum at 3…

Ram-pressure stripped molecular gas in the Virgo spiral galaxy NGC 4522

B. Vollmer, J. Braine, C. Pappalardo +1

IRAM 30m 12CO(1-0) and 12CO(2-1) HERA observations are presented for the ram-pressure stripped Virgo spiral galaxy NGC 4522. The CO emission is detected in the galactic disk and th…

Chemistry in Disks. II. -- Poor molecular content of the AB Aur disk

Katharina Schreyer, Stéphane Guilloteau, Dmitry Semenov +9

We study the molecular content and chemistry of a circumstellar disk surrounding the Herbig Ae star AB Aur at (sub-)millimeter wavelengths. Our aim is to reconstruct the chemical h…

HI and CO in the circumstellar environment of the oxygen-rich AGB star RX Lep

Y. Libert, T. Le Bertre, E. Gérard +1

Circumstellar shells around AGB stars are built over long periods of time that may reach several million years. They may therefore be extended over large sizes (~1 pc, possibly mor…

Gas flow models in the Milky Way embedded bars

Nemesio Rodriguez-Fernandez, Francoise Combes

The gas distribution and dynamics in the inner Galaxy present many unknowns as the origin of the asymmetry of the longitude-velocity (lv) diagram of the Central Molecular Zone (CMZ…

Disks around CQ Tau and MWC 758: dense PDR or gas dispersal?

Edwige Chapillon, Stéphane Guilloteau, Anne Dutrey +1

The overall properties of disks surrounding intermediate PMS stars (HAe) are not yet well constrained by current observations. The disk inclination, which significantly affect SED…

Cold gas in the Perseus cluster core: Excitation of molecular gas in filaments

P. Salomé, F. Combes, Y. Revaz +4

We have recently detected CO lines in the well-known filaments around NGC 1275, the galaxy at the centre of the Perseus cluster of galaxies. These previous observations, with the H…

Long-term observations of Uranus and Neptune at 90 GHz with the IRAM 30m telescope - (1985 -- 2005)

C. Kramer, R. Moreno, A. Greve

The planets Uranus and Neptune with small apparent diameters are primary calibration standards. We investigate their variability at ~90 GHz using archived data taken at the IRAM 30…

CN in prestellar cores

Pierre Hily-Blant, Malcolm Walmsley, G. Pineau Des Forêts +1

Determining the structure of and the velocity field in prestellar cores is essential to understanding protostellar evolution.} {We have observed the dense prestellar cores L 1544 a…
