Infall through the evolution of high-mass star-forming clumps

F. Wyrowski, R. Güsten, K. M. Menten +6

With the GREAT receiver at the Stratospheric Observatory for Infrared Astronomy (SOFIA), nine massive molecular clumps have been observed in the ammonia line at 1.…

Discovery of molecular gas around HD 131835 in an APEX molecular line survey of bright debris disks

A. Moór, Th. Henning, A. Juhász +11

Debris disks are considered to be gas-poor, but recent observations revealed molecular or atomic gas in several 10-40 Myr old systems. We used the APEX and IRAM 30m radiotelescopes…

Spectroscopically resolved far-IR observations of the massive star-forming region G5.89--0.39

S. Leurini, F. Wyrowski, H. Wiesemeyer +9

The fine-structure line of [OI] at 63micron is an important diagnostic tool in different fields of astrophysics. However, our knowledge of this line relies on observations with low…

Challenging shock models with SOFIA OH observations in the high-mass star-forming region Cepheus A

A. Gusdorf, R. Guesten, K. M. Menten +13

OH is a key molecule in H2O chemistry, a valuable tool for probing physical conditions, and an important contributor to the cooling of shock regions. OH participates in the re-dist…

Disentangling the excitation conditions of the dense gas in M17 SW

J. P. Pérez-Beaupuits, R. Güsten, M. Spaans +7

We probe the chemical and energetic conditions in dense gas created by radiative feedback through observations of multiple CO, HCN and HCO transitions toward the dense core of…

Outflow forces in intermediate mass star formation

T. A. van Kempen, M. R. Hogerheijde, E. F. van Dishoeck +22

Intermediate mass protostarsprovide a bridge between theories of low- and high-mass star formation. Emerging molecular outflows can be used to determine the influence of fragmentat…
