Tracing the Hidden Molecular Gas in the Small Magellanic Cloud with SOFIA and APEX

K. Rodriguez-Ambler, R. Herrera-Camus, M. Rúbio +6

In low-metallicity environments, reduced dust abundance weakens molecular cloud shielding against far-ultraviolet radiation, enhancing CO photodissociation and producing extended C…

Space as a spectroscopic laboratory: High-resolution spectroscopy of the [C II] hyperfine structure with SOFIA/upGREAT

S. Kabanovic, V. Ossenkopf-Okada, S. Schlemmer +13

The [C II] emission at 158 m is a key cooling line of the interstellar medium and traces gas kinematics in spectrally resolved observations. Its spectral profile is often…

Self-absorption in [CII], CO, and HI in RCW120. Building up a geometrical and physical model of the region

S. Kabanovic, N. Schneider, V. Ossenkopf-Okada +19

Revealing the 3D dynamics of HII regions and their associated molecular clouds is important for understanding the longstanding problem as to how stellar feedback affects the densit…

SOFIA/FIFI-LS Full-disk [CII] Mapping and CO-dark Molecular Gas across the Nearby Spiral Galaxy NGC 6946

F. Bigiel, I. de Looze, A. Krabbe +17

We present SOFIA/FIFI-LS observations of the [CII] 158m cooling line across the nearby spiral galaxy NGC 6946. We combine these with UV, IR, CO, and H I data to compare [CII] em…

A SOFIA Survey of [CII] in the galaxy M51 II. [CII] and CO kinematics across spiral arms

Jorge L. Pineda, Juergen Stutzki, Christof Buchbender +10

We present the first complete, velocity-resolved [CII] 158um image of the M51 grand-design spiral galaxy, observed with the upGREAT instrument on SOFIA. [CII] is an important trace…

The CCAT-Prime Submillimeter Observatory

Manuel Aravena, Jason Austermann, Kaustuv Basu +53

The Cerro Chajnantor Atacama Telescope-prime (CCAT-prime) is a new 6-m, off-axis, low-emissivity, large field-of-view submillimeter telescope scheduled for first light in the last…
