PDRs4All XIII. Empirical prescriptions for the interpretation of JWST imaging observations of star-forming regions

Ryan Chown, Yoko Okada, Els Peeters +17

(Abridged) JWST continues to deliver incredibly detailed infrared (IR) images of star forming regions in the Milky Way and beyond. IR emission from star-forming regions is very spe…

PDRs4All. X. ALMA and JWST detection of neutral carbon in the externally irradiated disk d203-506: Undepleted gas-phase carbon

Javier R. Goicoechea, J. Le Bourlot, J. H. Black +26

The gas-phase abundance of carbon, x_C = C/H, and its depletion factors are essential parameters for understanding the gas and solid compositions that are ultimately incorporated i…

PDRs4All VIII: Mid-IR emission line inventory of the Orion Bar

Dries Van De Putte, Raphael Meshaka, Boris Trahin +135

Mid-infrared emission features probe the properties of ionized gas, and hot or warm molecular gas. The Orion Bar is a frequently studied photodissociation region (PDR) containing l…

PDRs4All IX. Sulfur elemental abundance in the Orion Bar

Asunción Fuente, Evelyne Roueff, Franck Le Petit +31

One of the main problems in astrochemistry is determining the amount of sulfur in volatiles and refractories in the interstellar medium. The detection of the main sulfur reservoirs…

A far-ultraviolet-driven photoevaporation flow observed in a protoplanetary disk

Olivier Berné, Emilie Habart, Els Peeters +143

Most low-mass stars form in stellar clusters that also contain massive stars, which are sources of far-ultraviolet (FUV) radiation. Theoretical models predict that this FUV radiati…

PDRs4All VII. The 3.3 m aromatic infrared band as a tracer of physical properties of the ISM in galaxies

Ilane Schroetter, Olivier Berné, Christine Joblin +9

Aromatic infrared bands (AIBs) are a set of broad emission bands at 3.3, 6.2, 7.7, 8.6, 11.2, and 12.7 m, seen in the infrared spectra of most galaxies. With JWST, the 3.3 m…

Formation of the Methyl Cation by Photochemistry in a Protoplanetary Disk

Olivier Berné, Marie-Aline Martin-Drumel, Ilane Schroetter +53

Forty years ago it was proposed that gas phase organic chemistry in the interstellar medium was initiated by the methyl cation CH3+, but hitherto it has not been observed outside t…

PDRs4All. V. Modelling the dust evolution across the illuminated edge of the Orion Bar

M. Elyajouri, N. Ysard, A. Abergel +31

We study the emission of dust grains within the Orion Bar - a well-known, highly far-UV (FUV)-irradiated PDR. The Orion Bar because of its edge-on geometry provides an exceptional…

OH as a probe of the warm water cycle in planet-forming disks

Marion Zannese, Benoît Tabone, Emilie Habart +52

Water is a key ingredient for the emergence of life as we know it. Yet, its destruction and reformation in space remains unprobed in warm gas. Here, we detect the hydroxyl radical…
