Catching the Birth of a Dark Molecular Cloud for the First Time

Pei Zuo, Di Li, J. E. G. Peek +5

The majority of hydrogen in the interstellar medium (ISM) is in atomic form. The transition from atoms to molecules and, in particular, the formation of the H molecule, is a ke…

Optically thick HI does not dominate dark gas in the local ISM

Claire E. Murray, J. E. G. Peek, Min-Young Lee +1

The local interstellar medium (ISM) is suffused with "dark" gas, identified by excess infrared and gamma ray emission, yet undetected by standard ISM tracers such as neutral hydrog…

Three-Dimensional Orientation of Compact High Velocity Clouds

F. Heitsch, B. Bartell, S. E. Clark +3

We present a proof-of-concept study of a method to estimate the inclination angle of compact high velocity clouds (CHVCs), i.e. the angle between a CHVC's trajectory and the line-o…

Neutral hydrogen structures trace dust polarization angle: Implications for cosmic microwave background foregrounds

S. E. Clark, J. Colin Hill, J. E. G. Peek +2

Using high-resolution data from the Galactic Arecibo L-Band Feed Array HI (GALFA-HI) survey, we show that linear structure in Galactic neutral hydrogen (HI) correlates with the mag…

Galactic and Magellanic Evolution with the SKA

Naomi M. McClure-Griffiths, Snezana Stanimirovic, Claire E. Murray +9

As we strive to understand how galaxies evolve it is crucial that we resolve physical processes and test emerging theories in nearby systems that we can observe in great detail. Ou…

Dust-to-Gas Ratios of the GALFA-HI Compact Cloud Catalog

Destry R. Saul, J. E. G. Peek, M. E. Putman

We have searched for infrared dust emission from subsets of compact, Galactic neutral hydrogen clouds, with the purpose of looking for dust in high-velocity clouds, identifying low…
