On Schmidt's Conjecture and Star Formation Scaling Laws

Charles J. Lada

Ever since the pioneering work of Schmidt a half-century ago there has been great interest in finding an appropriate empirical relation that would directly link some property of in…

Some like it cold: molecular emission and effective dust temperatures of dense cores in the Pipe Nebula

Jan Forbrich, Karin Öberg, Charles J. Lada +4

(abridged) [...] Methods: In a continued study of the molecular core population of the Pipe Nebula, we present a molecular-line survey of 52 cores. Previous research has shown a va…

Molecular Cloud-scale Star Formation in NGC 300

Christopher M. Faesi, Charles J. Lada, Jan Forbrich +2

We present the results of a galaxy-wide study of molecular gas and star formation in a sample of 76 HII regions in the nearby spiral galaxy NGC 300. We have measured the molecular…

2MASS wide field extinction maps: V. Corona Australis

João Alves, Marco Lombardi, Charles Lada

We present a near-infrared extinction map of a large region (870 deg) covering the isolated Corona Australis complex of molecular clouds. We reach a 1- error of 0.02 m…
