Reversal of infall in SgrB2(M) revealed by Herschel/HIFI observations of HCN lines at THz frequencies
Rainer Rolffs, Peter Schilke, Claudia Comito +54
To investigate the accretion and feedback processes in massive star formation, we analyze the shapes of emission lines from hot molecular cores, whose asymmetries trace infall and…
Herschel/HIFI observations of spectrally resolved methylidyne signatures toward the high-mass star-forming core NGC6334I
M. H. D. van der Wiel, F. F. S. van der Tak, D. C. Lis +65
In contrast to extensively studied dense star-forming cores, little is known about diffuse gas surrounding star-forming regions. We study molecular gas in the high-mass star-formin…
Herschel observations of EXtra-Ordinary Sources: the present and future of spectral surveys with Herschel/HIFI
E. A. Bergin, T. G. Phillips, C. Comito +56
We present initial results from the Herschel GT key program: Herschel observations of EXtra-Ordinary Sources (HEXOS) and outline the promise and potential of spectral surveys with…
Herschel observations of extra-ordinary sources: Detecting spiral arm clouds by CH absorption lines
S. -L. Qin, P. Schilke, C. Comito +67
We have observed CH absorption lines () against the continuum source Sgr~B2(M) using the \textit{Herschel}/HIFI instrument. With the high spectral…
Herschel/HIFI measurements of the ortho/para ratio in water towards Sagittarius B2(M) and W31C
D. C. Lis, T. G. Phillips, P. F. Goldsmith +74
We present Herschel/HIFI observations of the fundamental rotational transitions of ortho- and para-HO and HO in absorption towards Sagittarius~B2(M) and W31C. The…
Herschel observations of ortho- and para-oxidaniumyl (H2O+) in spiral arm clouds toward Sgr B2(M)
P. Schilke, C. Comito, H. S. P. Mueller +55
H2O+ has been observed in its ortho- and para- states toward the massive star forming core Sgr B2(M), located close to the Galactic center. The observations show absorption in all…
Hier ist wahrhaftig ein Loch im Himmel - The NGC 1999 dark globule is not a globule
T. Stanke, A. M. Stutz, J. J. Tobin +22
The NGC 1999 reflection nebula features a dark patch with a size of ~10,000 AU, which has been interpreted as a small, dense foreground globule and possible site of imminent star f…
