Near-infrared reddening of extra-galactic GMCs in a face-on geometry
Jouni Kainulainen, Mika Juvela, Joao Alves
[Abridged] We describe the near-infrared reddening signature of giant molecular clouds (GMCs) in external galaxies. In particular, we examine the E(J-H) and E(H-K) color-excesses,…
Determination of the mass function of extra-galactic GMCs via NIR color maps. Testing the method in a disk-like geometry
Jouni Kainulainen, Mika Juvela, Joao Alves
[Abridged] The giant molecular clouds (GMCs) of external galaxies can be mapped with sub-arcsecond resolution using multiband observations in the near-infrared. However, the interp…
A comparison of density structures of a star forming and a non-star-forming globule. DCld303.8-14.2 and Thumbprint Nebula
J. Kainulainen, K. Lehtinen, P. Vaisanen +2
We present a study of radial density structure of the star forming globule, DCld303.8-14.2 (DC303), and a non-star forming globule, Thumbprint Nebula (TPN), using near-infrared dat…
The ratio of N(C18O) and Av in Chamaeleon I and III-B using 2MASS and SEST
J. Kainulainen, K. Lehtinen, J. Harju
We investigate the relationship between the C18O column density and the visual extinction in Chamaeleon I and in a part of the Chamaeleon III molecular cloud. The C18O column densi…
