NIKA2 observations of starless cores in Taurus and Perseus
C. Kramer, R. Adam, P. Ade +49
Dusty starless cores play an important role in regulating the initial phases of the formation of stars and planets. In their interiors, dust grains coagulate and ice mantles form,…
Star formation towards the Galactic HII region RCW120
M. Figueira, A. Zavagno, L. Deharveng +16
The expansion of HII regions can trigger the formation of stars. An overdensity of young stellar objects (YSOs) is observed at the edges of HII regions but the mechanisms that give…
From filamentary clouds to prestellar cores to the stellar IMF: Initial highlights from the Herschel Gould Belt survey
Ph. André, A. Men'shchikov, S. Bontemps +54
We summarize the first results from the Gould Belt survey, obtained toward the Aquila Rift and Polaris Flare regions during the 'science demonstration phase' of Herschel. Our 70-50…
Physical properties of the Sh2-104 HII region as seen by Herschel
J. A. Rodón, A. Zavagno, J. -P. Baluteau +46
Context: Sh2-104 is a Galactic H ii region with a bubble morphology, detected at optical and radio wavelengths. It is considered the first observational confirmation of the collect…
Herschel-SPIRE spectroscopy of the DR21 molecular cloud core
Glenn J. White, A. Abergel, L. Spencer +47
We present far-infrared spectra and maps of the DR21 molecular cloud core between 196 and 671 microns, using the Herschel-SPIRE spectrometer. Nineteen molecular lines originating f…
The Herschel first look at protostars in the Aquila Rift
S. Bontemps, Ph. Andre, V. Konyves +40
As part of the science demonstration phase of the Herschel mission of the Gould Belt Key Program, the Aquila Rift molecular complex has been observed. The complete ~ 3.3deg x 3.3de…
First detection of the Methylidyne cation (CH+) fundamental rotational line with the Herschel/SPIRE FTS
D. A. Naylor, E. Dartois, E. Habart +41
Aims. To follow the species chemistry arising in diverse sources of the Galaxy with Herschel. Methods. SPIRE FTS sparse sampled maps of the Orion bar & compact HII regions G29.96-0…
The physical properties of the dust in the RCW 120 HII region as seen by Herschel
L. D. Anderson, A. Zavagno, J. A. Rodon +41
Context. RCW 120 is a well-studied, nearby Galactic HII region with ongoing star formation in its surroundings. Previous work has shown that it displays a bubble morphology at mid-…
