Recent Astrochemical Results on Star-Forming Regions
Floris van der Tak
This review discusses recent results on the astrochemistry of (mostly high-mass) star-forming regions. After an introduction on the use of chemistry in astrophysics and some basic…
Detection of extragalactic H3O+
Floris van der Tak, Susanne Aalto, Rowin Meijerink
The H3O+ molecule probes the oxygen chemistry and the ionization rate of dense circumnuclear gas in galaxies. In particular, recent H3O+ observations show variations in the cosmic-…
Modeling the water line emission from the high-mass star-forming region AFGL2591
D. R. Poelman, F. F. S. van der Tak
Context: observations of water lines are a sensitive probe of the geometry, dynamics and chemical structure of dense molecular gas. The launch of Herschel with on board HIFI and PA…
Molecular data and radiative transfer tools for ALMA
Floris van der Tak, Michiel Hogerheijde
This paper presents an overview of several modeling tools for analyzing molecular line observations at submillimeter wavelengths. These tools are already proving to be very valuabl…
