Submillimeter water and ammonia absorption by the peculiar z~0.89 interstellar medium in the gravitational lens of the PKS 1830-211 system

K. M. Menten, R. Guesten, S. Leurini +5

Using the Atacama Pathfinder Experiment (APEX) telescope we have detected the rotational ground-state transitions of ortho-ammonia and ortho-water toward the redshift ~0.89 absorbi…

Mid- and high-J CO observations towards UCHIIs

F. Wyrowski, S. Heyminck, R. Guesten +1

A study of 12 ultracompact HII regions was conducted to probe the physical conditions and kinematics in the inner envelopes of the molecular clumps harboring them. The APEX telesco…
