Cold dust in giant barred galaxy NGC1365

F. S. Tabatabaei, A. Weiss, F. Combes +5

Observations of galaxies at sub-millimeter wavelengths, where the emission is mainly due to cold dust, are required to constrain the dust physical properties and provide important…

Evidence for CO shock excitation in NGC 6240 from Herschel SPIRE spectroscopy

R. Meijerink, L. E. Kristensen, A. Weiss +28

We present Herschel SPIRE FTS spectroscopy of the nearby luminous infrared galaxy NGC 6240. In total 20 lines are detected, including CO J=4-3 through J=13-12, 6 H2O rotational lin…

[CII] gas in IC 342

M. Röllig, R. Simon, R. Güsten +6

Methods: We used the dual-band receiver GREAT on board the SOFIA airborne telescope to perform observations of the [C II] 158 μm fine-structure line at the postitions of two giant…

Gas and dust in a submillimeter galaxy at z = 4.24 from the Herschel ATLAS

Pierre Cox, M. Krips, R. Neri +39

We report ground-based follow-up observations of the exceptional source, ID141, one the brightest sources detected so far in the H-ATLAS cosmological survey. ID141 was observed usi…

HIFI spectroscopy of low-level water transitions in M82

A. Weiss, M. A. Requena-Torres, R. Guesten +23

We present observations of the rotational ortho-water ground transition, the two lowest para-water transitions, and the ground transition of ionised ortho-water in the archetypal s…

PACS and SPIRE photometer maps of M33: First results of the Herschel M33 extended survey (HERM33ES)

C. Kramer, C. Buchbender, E. M. Xilouris +37

Within the framework of the HERM33ES key project, we are studying the star forming interstellar medium in the nearby, metal-poor spiral galaxy M33, exploiting the high resolution a…
