The chemistry of chlorine-bearing species in the diffuse interstellar medium, and new SOFIA/GREAT observations of HCl

David A. Neufeld, Helmut Wiesemeyer, Mark J. Wolfire +6

We have revisited the chemistry of chlorine-bearing species in the diffuse interstellar medium with new observations of the HCl molecular ion and new astrochemical models. Usin…

SOFIA FEEDBACK survey: exploring the dynamics of the stellar wind driven shell of RCW 49

M. Tiwari, R. Karim, M. W. Pound +13

We unveil the stellar wind driven shell of the luminous massive star-forming region of RCW 49 using SOFIA FEEDBACK observations of the [CII] 158 m line. The complementary datase…

The CH radical at radio wavelengths: Revisiting emission in the 3.3GHz ground state lines

Arshia M. Jacob, Karl M. Menten, Helmut Wiesemeyer +1

The intensities of the three widely observed radio-wavelength hyperfine structure (HFS) lines between the Λ-doublet components of the rotational ground state of CH are inconsistent…

Hunting for the elusive methylene radical

A. M. Jacob, K. M. Menten, Y. Gong +4

CH2 transitions between 68 and 71 GHz were first detected toward the Orion-KL and W51 Main SFRs. Given their upper level energies of 225 K, they were thought to arise in dense, hot…

The magnetic field in the dense photodissociation region of DR 21

Atanu Koley, Nirupam Roy, Karl M. Menten +3

Measuring interstellar magnetic fields is extremely important for understanding their role in different evolutionary stages of interstellar clouds and of star formation. However, d…

Extending the view of ArH+ chemistry in diffuse clouds

Arshia M. Jacob, Karl M. Menten, Friedrich Wyrowski +2

One of the surprises of the Herschel mission was the detection of ArH+ towards the Crab Nebula in emission and in absorption towards strong Galactic background sources. Although th…
