The high velocity outflow in NGC6334I

S. Leurini, P. Schilke, B. Parise +3

We observed the high velocity outflow originating from NGC6334I in several CO transitions with the APEX telescope, with the goal of deriving the physical parameters of the gas. Usi…

First observations with CONDOR, a 1.5 THz heterodyne receiver

M. C. Wiedner, G. Wieching, F. Bielau +15

The THz atmospheric windows centered at roughly 1.3 and 1.5~THz, contain numerous spectral lines of astronomical importance, including three high-J CO lines, the N+ line at 205 mic…

The distribution of ND2H in LDN1689N

Maryvonne Gerin, Dariuscz C. Lis, Sabine Philipp +3

Finding tracers of the innermost regions of prestellar cores is important for understanding their chemical and dynamical evolution before the onset of gravitational collapse. While…

Molecular excitation in the Eagle nebula's fingers

F. Schuller, S. Leurini, C. Hieret +5

Context: The M16 nebula is a relatively nearby Hii region, powered by O stars from the open cluster NGC 6611, which borders to a Giant Molecular Cloud. Radiation from these hot sta…

Submillimeter vibrationally excited water emission from the peculiar red supergiant VY CMa

K. M. Menten, S. D. Philipp, R. Guesten +3

Vibrationally excited emission from the SiO and H2O molecules probes the innermost circumstellar envelopes of oxygen-rich red giant and supergiant stars. VY CMa is the most prolifi…

APEX mapping of H3O+ in the Sgr B2 region

F. F. S. van der Tak, ; A. Belloche, P. Schilke +5

The cosmic-ray ionization rate (zeta) of dense molecular clouds is a key parameter for their dynamics and chemistry. Variations of zeta are well established, but it is unclear if t…
