ALOHA IRDCs Molecular Line Follow-up: I. Gas properties and kinematics
Jinjin Xie, Yaoting Yan, Zhiyuan Ren +109
Infrared Dark Clouds are ideal sites for investigating the initial conditions of massive star and cluster formation. The A Lei Of the Habitat and Assembly of Infrared Dark Clouds (…
A New Cloud-Cloud Collision Source N68 toward the G35 Molecular Cloud Complex
En Chen, Xi Chen
Bubble N68 in the G35 complex shows clear cloud-cloud collision (CCC) signatures. Its semi-ring-like morphology harbors many significant massive star formation tracers: 6 HII regio…
Bullet shooting cloud-cloud collision in MIR bubble N65
En Chen, Xi Chen, Min Fang +3
We report that the formation of the twin-bubble system N65 and N65bis may be caused by the cloud-cloud collision (CCC) from the Bullet Nebula. The blue-shifted CO gas compon…
Distributions and Physical Properties of Molecular Clouds in the G24 Region of the Milky Way
Tian Yang, Xi Chen, Xiao-Yun Xu +5
We report the spatial distribution and physical characteristics of molecular clouds in the G24 region, which is located near the intersection of the Milky Way's Galactic bar with t…
Multiple collisions in N59 bubble: Sequential cloud-cloud collisions
En Chen, Xi Chen, Xuepeng Chen +2
We report that the gas components in the N59 bubble suffered from sequential multiple cloud-cloud collision (CCC) processes. The molecular gas in the N59 bubble can be decomposed i…
