Herschel-Planck dust optical depth and column density maps - II. Perseus
E. Zari, M. Lombardi, J. Alves +2
We present optical depth and temperature maps of the Perseus molecular cloud, obtained combining dust emission data from the Herschel and Planck satellites and 2MASS/NIR dust extin…
Star Formation in the Local Milky Way
Charles J. Lada
Studies of molecular clouds and young stars near the sun have provided invaluable insights into the process of star formation. Indeed, much of our physical understanding of this to…
Smoke in the Pipe Nebula: dust emission and grain growth in the starless core FeSt 1-457
Jan Forbrich, Charles J. Lada, Marco Lombardi +2
(abridged) Methods: We derive maps of submillimeter dust optical depth and effective dust temperature from Herschel data that were calibrated against Planck. After calibration, we…
The Relationship Between the Dust and Gas-Phase CO Across the California Molecular Cloud
S. Kong, C. J. Lada, E. A. Lada +5
A deep, wide-field, near-infrared imaging survey was used to construct an extinction map of the southeastern part of the California Molecular Cloud (CMC) with 0.5 arc min re…
Molecular clouds have power-law probability distribution functions
Marco Lombardi, João Alves, Charles J. Lada
In this Letter we investigate the shape of the probability distribution of column densities (PDF) in molecular clouds. Through the use of low-noise, extinction-calibrated \textit{H…
