On volume density and star formation in nearby molecular clouds

Jan H. Orkisz, Jouni Kainulainen

Volume density is a key physical quantity controlling the evolution of the interstellar medium (ISM) and star formation, but it cannot be accessed directly by observations of molec…

A Two-Week Monitoring Campaign on Mrk 421

W. Peter Maksym, Ioannis Liodakis, M. Lynne Saade +153

X-ray polarization is a unique new probe of the particle acceleration in astrophysical jets made possible through the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer. Here we report on the firs…

Toward a robust physical and chemical characterization of heterogeneous lines of sight: The case of the Horsehead nebula

Léontine Ségal, Antoine Roueff, Jérôme Pety +28

Dense cold molecular cores/filaments are surrounded by an envelope of translucent gas. Some of the low-J emission lines of CO and HCO isotopologues are more sensitive to the co…

Quantifying the informativity of emission lines to infer physical conditions in giant molecular clouds. I. Application to model predictions

Lucas Einig, Pierre Palud, Antoine Roueff +29

Observations of ionic, atomic, or molecular lines are performed to improve our understanding of the interstellar medium (ISM). However, the potential of a line to constrain the phy…

SO as shock tracer in protoplanetary disks: the AB Aurigae case

A. Dutrey, E. Chapillon, S. Guilloteau +9

{Sulfur Monoxide is known to be a good shock tracer in molecular clouds and protostar environments, but its abundance is difficult to reproduce even using state-of-the-art astroche…

Chemical composition of comets C/2021 A1 (Leonard) and C/2022 E3 (ZTF) from radio spectroscopy and the abundance of HCOOH and HNCO in comets

N. Biver, D. Bockelee-Morvan, B. Handzlik +14

We present the results of a molecular survey of long period comets C/2021 A1 (Leonard) and C/2022 E3 (ZTF). Comet C/2021 A1 was observed with the IRAM 30-m radio telescope in Novem…

PDRs4All. X. ALMA and JWST detection of neutral carbon in the externally irradiated disk d203-506: Undepleted gas-phase carbon

Javier R. Goicoechea, J. Le Bourlot, J. H. Black +26

The gas-phase abundance of carbon, x_C = C/H, and its depletion factors are essential parameters for understanding the gas and solid compositions that are ultimately incorporated i…

H2CO and CS in diffuse clouds: Excitation and abundance

Maryvonne Gerin, Harvey Liszt, Jerome Pety +1

To provide constraints on the chemical processes responsible for the observed columns of organic species, we used NOEMA to observe the sight line toward NRAO150 in the 2mm spectral…

Complex organic molecules uncover deeply embedded precursors of hot cores

Laure Bouscasse, Timea Csengeri, Friedrich Wyrowski +2

During the process of star formation, the dense gas undergoes significant chemical evolution leading to the emergence of a rich variety of molecules associated with hot cores and h…
