Water in Star-Forming Regions with the Herschel Space Observatory (WISH): Overview of key program and first results
E. F. van Dishoeck, L. E. Kristensen, A. O. Benz +12
`Water In Star-forming regions with Herschel' (WISH) is a key program on the Herschel Space Observatory designed to probe the physical and chemical structure of young stellar objec…
The Dynamics of Dense Cores in the Perseus Molecular Cloud II: The Relationship Between Dense Cores and the Cloud
Helen Kirk, Jaime E. Pineda, Doug Johnstone +1
We utilize the extensive datasets available for the Perseus molecular cloud to analyze the relationship between the kinematics of small-scale dense cores and the larger structures…
Herschel observations of EXtra-Ordinary Sources (HEXOS): Observations of H2O and its isotopologues towards Orion KL
G. J. Melnick, V. Tolls, D. A. Neufeld +49
We report the detection of more than 48 velocity-resolved ground rotational state transitions of H2(16)O, H2(18)O, and H2(17)O - most for the first time - in both emission and abso…
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…
Variations in H2O+/H2O ratios toward massive star-forming regions
F. Wyrowski, F. van der Tak, F. Herpin +63
Early results from the Herschel Space Observatory revealed the water cation H2O+ to be an abundant ingredient of the interstellar medium. Here we present new observations of the H2…
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…
