Intermittency of interstellar turbulence: extreme velocity-shears and CO emission on milliparsec scale
E. Falgarone, J. Pety, P. Hily-Blant
The condensation of diffuse gas into molecular clouds occurs at a rate driven largely by turbulent dissipation. This process still has to be caught in action and characterized. A m…
Intermittency of interstellar turbulence: Parsec-scale coherent structure of intense velocity-shear
Pierre Hily-Blant, Edith Falgarone
Guided by the duality of turbulence (random versus coherent we seek coherent structures in the turbulent velocity field of molecular clouds, anticipating their importance in cloud…
The ionization fraction gradient across the Horsehead edge: An archetype for molecular clouds
J. R. Goicoechea, J. Pety, M. Gerin +2
The ionization fraction plays a key role in the chemistry and dynamics of molecular clouds. We study the H13CO+, DCO+ and HOC+ line emission towards the Horsehead, from the shielde…
CO emission and variable CH and CH+ absorption towards HD34078: evidence for a nascent bow shock ?
P. Boisse, E. Rollinde, P. Hily-Blant +7
The runaway star HD34078, initially selected to investigate small scale structure in a foreground diffuse cloud has been shown to be surrounded by highly excited H2. We first searc…
