A complete model of CH+ rotational excitation including radiative and chemical pumping processes

Benjamin Godard, José Cernicharo

Aims. Excitation of far-infrared and submillimetric molecular lines may originate from nonreactive collisions, chemical formation, or far infrared, near-infrared, and optical fluor…

Water absorption in Galactic translucent clouds: conditions and history of the gas derived from Herschel/HIFI PRISMAS observations

N. Flagey, P. F. Goldsmith, D. C. Lis +8

We present Herschel/HIFI observations of nine transitions of \hho and \hheo towards six high-mass star-forming regions, obtained as part of the PRISMAS Key Program. Water vapor in…

Nitrogen hydrides in interstellar gas II. Analysis of Herschel/HIFI observations towards W49N and G10.6-0.4 (W31C)

C. M. Persson, M. De Luca, B. Mookerjea +14

We have used the Herschel-HIFI instrument to observe interstellar nitrogen hydrides along the sight-lines towards W49N and G10.6-0.4 in order to elucidate the production pathways l…

Discovery of interstellar mercapto radicals (SH) with the GREAT instrument on SOFIA

D. A. Neufeld, E. Falgarone, M. Gerin +7

We report the first detection of interstellar mercapto radicals, obtained along the sight-line to the submillimeter continuum source W49N. We have used the GREAT instrument on SOFI…

Comparative study of CH+ and SH+ absorption lines observed towards distant star-forming regions

Benjamin Godard, E. Falgarone, M. Gerin +8

Aims. The HIFI instrument onboard Herschel has allowed high spectral resolution and sensitive observations of ground-state transi- tions of three molecular ions: the methylidyne ca…
