Submillimeter Line Emission from LMC N159W: a Dense, Clumpy PDR in a Low Metallicity Environment
J. L. Pineda, N. Mizuno, J. Stutzki +30
Star formation at earlier cosmological times takes place in an interstellar medium with low metallicity. The Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) is ideally suited to study star formation…
12CO 4-3 and [CI] 1-0 at the centers of NGC 4945 and Circinus
M. Hitschfeld, M. Aravena, C. Kramer +30
Studying molecular gas in the central regions of the star burst galaxies NGC4945 and Circinus enables us to characterize the physical conditions and compare them to previous local…
Clumpy photon-dominated regions in Carina. I. [CI] and mid-J CO lines in two 4'x4' fields
C. Kramer, M. Cubick, M. Roellig +31
The Carina region is an excellent astrophysical laboratory for studying the feedback mechanisms of newly born, very massive stars within their natal giant molecular clouds (GMCs) a…
Terahertz Initiatives at the Antarctic Submillimeter Telescope and Remote Observatory (AST/RO)
Antony A Stark, Adair P. Lane, Christopher L. Martin +3
The Antarctic Submillimeter Telescope and Remote Observatory (AST/RO) is a 1.7-meter diameter offset Gregorian instrument located at the NSF Amundsen-Scott South Pole Station. This…
Extended [C I] and ^{13}CO(5-4) Emission in M17SW
J. E. Howe, M. L. N. Ashby, E. A. Bergin +19
We mapped a 13 by 22 pc region in emission from 492 GHz [C I] and, for the first time, 551 GHz ^{13}CO(5-4) in the giant molecular cloud M17SW, using the Submillimeter Wave Astrono…
Water Abundance in Molecular Cloud Cores
R. L. Snell, J. E. Howe, M. L. N. Ashby +17
We present Submillimeter Wave Astronomy Satellite (SWAS) observations of the 1_{10}-1_{01} transition of ortho-water at 557 GHz toward 12 molecular cloud cores. The water emission…
