High-dynamic-range extinction mapping of infrared dark clouds: Dependence of density variance with sonic Mach number in molecular clouds
Jouni Kainulainen, Jonathan C. Tan
Measuring the mass distribution of infrared dark clouds (IRDCs) over the wide dynamic range of their column densities is a fundamental obstacle in determining the initial condition…
The Earliest Phases of Star formation observed with Herschel (EPoS): The dust temperature and density distributions of B68
M. Nielbock, R. Launhardt, J. Steinacker +13
(Abriged) In the framework of the Herschel GTKP "The earliest phases of star formation", we have imaged B68 between 100 and 500 um. Ancillary (sub)mm data, spectral line maps of th…
A Virialized Filamentary Infrared Dark Cloud
Audra K. Hernandez, Jonathan C. Tan, Jouni Kainulainen +4
The initial conditions of massive star and star cluster formation are expected to be cold, dense and high column density regions of the interstellar medium, which can reveal themse…
A Transient Sub-Eddington Black Hole X-ray Binary Candidate in the Dust Lanes of Centaurus A
Mark J. Burke, Somak Raychaudhury, Ralph P. Kraft +18
We report the discovery of a bright X-ray transient, CXOU J132527.6-430023, in the nearby early-type galaxy NGC 5128. The source was first detected over the course of five Chandra…
