Detection of two power-law tails in the probability distribution functions of massive GMCs

N. Schneider, S. Bontemps, P. Girichidis +20

We report the novel detection of complex high-column density tails in the probability distribution functions (PDFs) for three high-mass star-forming regions (CepOB3, MonR2, NGC6334…

SiO emission from low- and high-velocity shocks in Cygnus-X massive dense clumps

A. Duarte-Cabral, S. Bontemps, F. Motte +4

We used PdBI observations of SiO (2-1) to investigate the morphology and profile of the SiO emission within several massive dense clumps (MDCs) in Cygnus-X. We find that most molec…

Understanding star formation in molecular clouds II. Signatures of gravitational collapse of IRDCs

N. Schneider, T. Csengeri, R. S. Klessen +6

We analyse column density and temperature maps derived from Herschel dust continuum observations of a sample of massive infrared dark clouds (G11.11-0.12, G18.82-0.28, G28.37+0.07,…

Characterizing the structure of diffuse emission in Hi-GAL maps

D. Elia, F. Strafella, N. Schneider +18

We present a study of the structure of the Galactic interstellar medium through the Delta-variance technique, related to the power spectrum and the fractal properties of infrared/s…

CO outflows from high-mass Class 0 protostars in Cygnus-X

A. Duarte-Cabral, S. Bontemps, F. Motte +3

As natural consequences of the accretion process, outflows are one of the few (indirect) tracers of accretion. We used CO(2-1) PdBI observations towards 6 MDCs in Cygnus-X, contain…

Young stellar clusters in the Rosette molecular cloud. Arguments against triggered star formation

L. Cambrésy, G. Marton, O. Feher +2

The Rosette complex is a well studied region of the galactic plane which presents the apparent characteristics of a triggered star forming region. This is however still debated as…

The first Hi-GAL observations of the outer Galaxy: a look to star formation in the third Galactic quadrant in the longitude range 216.5 < l < 225.5

D. Elia, S. Molinari, Y. Fukui +17

We present the first Herschel PACS and SPIRE photometric observations in a portion of the outer Galaxy ( and $-2^{\circ} \lesssi…

Gas dynamics in Massive Dense Cores in Cygnus-X

T. Csengeri, S. Bontemps, N. Schneider +2

We study the kinematic properties of dense gas surrounding massive protostars recognized by Bontemps et a. (2010) in a sample of five Massive Dense Cores in Cygnus-X. We investigat…

Clouds, filaments and protostars: the Herschel Hi-GAL Milky Way

S. Molinari, B. Swinyard, J. Bally +121

We present the first results from the science demonstration phase for the Hi-GAL survey, the Herschel key-project that will map the inner Galactic Plane of the Milky Way in 5 bands…

The Herschel first look at protostars in the Aquila Rift

S. Bontemps, Ph. Andre, V. Konyves +40

As part of the science demonstration phase of the Herschel mission of the Gould Belt Key Program, the Aquila Rift molecular complex has been observed. The complete ~ 3.3deg x 3.3de…

Dynamic star formation in the massive DR21 filament

N. Schneider, T. Csengeri, S. Bontemps +5

The formation of massive stars is a highly complex process in which it is not clear whether the star-forming gas is in global gravitational collapse or in an equilibrium state, sup…
