Water in Star-Forming Regions with the Herschel Space Observatory (WISH): Overview of key program and first results
E. F. van Dishoeck, L. E. Kristensen, A. O. Benz +12
`Water In Star-forming regions with Herschel' (WISH) is a key program on the Herschel Space Observatory designed to probe the physical and chemical structure of young stellar objec…
The JCMT Nearby Galaxies Legacy Survey VI: The distribution of gas and star formation in M81
J. R. Sánchez-Gallego, J. H. Knapen, J. S. Heiner +12
We present a first complete 12 CO J=3-2 map of M81, observed as part of the Nearby Galaxies Legacy Survey being carried out at the James Clerk Maxwell Telescope. We detect 9 region…
Modeling the Magnetic Field in the Galactic Disk using New Rotation Measure Observations from the Very Large Array
Cameron Van Eck, Jo-Anne Brown, Jeroen Stil +8
We have determined 194 Faraday rotation measures (RMs) of polarized extragalactic radio sources using new, multi-channel polarization observations at frequencies around 1.4 GHz fro…
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon processing by cosmic rays
E. R. Micelotta, A. P. Jones, A. G. G. M. Tielens
Context: Cosmic rays are present in almost all phases of the ISM. PAHs and cosmic rays represent an abundant and ubiquitous component of the interstellar medium. However, the inter…
Global Gravitational Instabilities in Discs with Infall
D. Harsono, R. D. Alexander, Yuri Levin
Gravitational instability plays an important role in driving gas accretion in massive protostellar discs. Particularly strong is the global gravitational instability, which arises…
A preliminary distance to W 75N in the Cygnus X star-forming region
K. L. J. Rygl, A. Brunthaler, K. M. Menten +6
Cygnus X is one of the closest giant molecular cloud complexes and therefore an extensively studied region of ongoing high mass star formation. However, the distance to this region…
