Interaction of the central jet with the surrounding gas in the protostellar outflow from IRAS 04166+2706

M. Tafalla, D. Johnstone, J. Santiago-Garcia +3

The outflow from the Class 0 protostar IRAS 04166+2706 (hereafter IRAS 04166) contains a remarkably symmetric jet-like component of extremely high-velocity (EHV) gas. $A…

Water abundances in high-mass protostellar envelopes: Herschel observations with HIFI

M. Marseille, F. F. S. van der Tak, F. Herpin +4

We derive the dense core structure and the water abundance in four massive star-forming regions which may help understand the earliest stages of massive star formation. We present…

Sensitive limits on the abundance of cold water vapor in the DM Tau protoplanetary disk

E. A. Bergin, M. R. Hogerheijde, C. Brinch +61

We performed a sensitive search for the ground-state emission lines of ortho- and para-water vapor in the DM Tau protoplanetary disk using the Herschel/HIFI instrument. No strong l…

Water vapor toward starless cores: the Herschel view

P. Caselli, E. Keto, L. Pagani +63

SWAS and Odin provided stringent upper limits on the gas phase water abundance of dark clouds (x(H2O) < 7x10^-9). We investigate the chemistry of water vapor in starless cores beyo…
