The Orion HII Region and the Orion Bar in the Mid-Infrared
F. Salgado, O. Berné, J. D. Adams +2
We present mid-infrared photometry of the Orion Bar obtained with FORCAST aboard SOFIA at 6.4, 6.6, 7.7, 19.7, 31.5 and 37.1 \um. By complementing this observations with archival F…
Infrared Observations of the Quintuplet Proper Members using SOFIA/FORCAST and Gemini/TReCS
Matthew J. Hankins, Ryan M. Lau, Mark R. Morris +4
Since their discovery, the Quintuplet proper members (QPMs) have been somewhat mysterious in nature. Originally dubbed the "cocoon stars" due to their cool featureless spectra, hig…
SOFIA/FORCAST Observations of Warm Dust in S106: A Fragmented Environment
J. D. Adams, T. L. Herter, J. L. Hora +22
We present mid-IR (19 - 37 microns) imaging observations of S106 from SOFIA/FORCAST, complemented with IR observations from Spitzer/IRAC (3.6 - 8.0 microns), IRTF/MIRLIN (11.3 and…
The SOFIA Observatory at the Start of Routine Science Operations : Mission capabilities and performance
Pasquale Temi, Pamela M. Marcum, Erick Young +65
The Stratospheric Observatory for Infrared Astronomy (SOFIA) has recently concluded a set of engineering flights for Observatory performance evaluation. These in-flight opportuniti…
On the nature of the deeply embedded protostar OMC-2 FIR 4
E. Furlan, S. T. Megeath, M. Osorio +7
We use mid-infrared to submillimeter data from the Spitzer, Herschel, and APEX telescopes to study the bright sub-mm source OMC-2 FIR 4. We find a point source at 8, 24, and 70 …
SOFIA/FORCAST and Spitzer/IRAC Imaging of the Ultra Compact H II Region W3(OH) and Associated Protostars in W3
Lea Hirsch, Joseph D. Adams, Terry L. Herter +8
We present infrared observations of the ultra-compact H II region W3(OH) made by the FORCAST instrument aboard SOFIA and by Spitzer/IRAC. We contribute new wavelength data to the s…
