Nobeyama 45-m Mapping Observations toward Orion A. III. Multi-Line Observations toward an Outflow-shocked Region, OMC-2 FIR
Fumitaka Nakamura, Shuri Oyamada, Sachiko Okumura +13
We present the results of mapping observations toward an outflow-shocked region, OMC-2 FIR 4 using the Nobeyama 45-m telescope. We observed the area in CO (), C$^{18}…
Magnetic stability of massive star forming clumps in RCW 106
Shohei Tamaoki, Koji Sugitani, Quang Nguyen-Luong +5
The RCW 106 molecular cloud complex is an active massive star-forming region where a ministarburst is taking place. We examined its magnetic structure by near-IR polarimetric obser…
Cluster formation in the W40 and Serpens South complex triggered by the expanding HII region
Tomomi Shimoikura, Kazuhito Dobashi, Fumitaka Nakamura +2
We present results of the mapping observations covering a large area of 1 square degree around W40 and Serpens South carried out in the 12CO (J=1-0), 13CO (J=1-0), C18O (J=1-0), CC…
Evolution of Prolate Molecular Clouds at Hii Boundaries: II. Formation of BRCs of asymmetrical morphology
T. M. Kinnear, J. Miao, G. J. White +2
A systematic investigation on the evolution of a prolate cloud at an Hii boundary is conducted using Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) in order to understand the mechanism for…
Near-IR Imaging Polarimetry toward a Bright-Rimmed Cloud: Magnetic Field in SFO 74
Takayoshi Kusune, Koji Sugitani, Jingqi Miao +7
We have made near-infrared (JHKs) imaging polarimetry of a bright-rimmed cloud (SFO 74). The polarization vector maps clearly show that the magnetic field in the layer just behind…
Cluster Formation Triggered by Filament Collisions in Serpens South
Fumitaka Nakamura, Koji Sugitani, Tomohiro Tanaka +24
The Serpens South infrared dark cloud consists of several filamentary ridges, some of which fragment into dense clumps. On the basis of CCS (), HCN (), N$_2…
