Physical Properties and Galactic Distribution of Molecular Clouds identified in the Galactic Ring Survey
Julia Roman-Duval, James M. Jackson, Mark Heyer +2
We derive the physical properties of 580 molecular clouds based on their 12CO and 13CO line emission detected in the University of Massachusetts-Stony Brook (UMSB) and Galactic Rin…
An Infrared through Radio Study of the Properties and Evolution of IRDC Clumps
Cara Battersby, John Bally, James M. Jackson +4
We examine the physical properties and evolutionary stages of a sample of 17 clumps within 8 Infrared Dark Clouds (IRDCs) by combining existing infrared, millimeter, and radio data…
The "Nessie" Nebula: Cluster Formation in a Filamentary Infrared Dark Cloud
James M. Jackson, Susanna C. Finn, Edward T. Chambers +2
The "Nessie" Nebula is a filamentary infrared dark cloud (IRDC) with a large aspect ratio of over 150:1 (1.5 degrees x 0.01 degrees, or 80 pc x 0.5 pc at a kinematic distance of 3.…
