Water in Star-Forming Regions with the Herschel Space Observatory (WISH): Overview of key program and first results

E. F. van Dishoeck, L. E. Kristensen, A. O. Benz +12

`Water In Star-forming regions with Herschel' (WISH) is a key program on the Herschel Space Observatory designed to probe the physical and chemical structure of young stellar objec…

Deuterated formaldehyde in rho Ophiuchi A

P. Bergman, B. Parise, R. Liseau +1

From mapping observations of H2CO, HDCO, and D2CO, we have determined how the degree of deuterium fractionation changes over the central 3'x3' region of rho Oph A. The multi-transi…

Ground-state ammonia and water in absorption towards Sgr B2

E. S. Wirström, P. Bergman, J. H. Black +8

We have used the Odin submillimetre-wave satellite telescope to observe the ground state transitions of ortho-ammonia and ortho-water, including their 15N, 18O, and 17O isotopologu…

Water abundances in high-mass protostellar envelopes: Herschel observations with HIFI

M. Marseille, F. F. S. van der Tak, F. Herpin +4

We derive the dense core structure and the water abundance in four massive star-forming regions which may help understand the earliest stages of massive star formation. We present…

Hydrides in Young Stellar Objects: Radiation tracers in a protostar-disk-outflow system

Arnold O. Benz, Simon Bruderer, Ewine F. van Dishoeck +2

Context: Hydrides of the most abundant heavier elements are fundamental molecules in cosmic chemistry. Some of them trace gas irradiated by UV or X-rays. Aims: We explore the abund…

Water vapor toward starless cores: the Herschel view

P. Caselli, E. Keto, L. Pagani +63

SWAS and Odin provided stringent upper limits on the gas phase water abundance of dark clouds (x(H2O) < 7x10^-9). We investigate the chemistry of water vapor in starless cores beyo…

CHESS, Chemical Herschel surveys of star forming regions:Peering into the protostellar shock L1157-B1

B. Lefloch, S. Cabrit, C. Codella +74

The outflow driven by the low-mass class 0 protostar L1157 is the prototype of the so-called chemically active outflows. The bright bowshock B1 in the southern outflow lobe is a pr…

Water abundance variations around high-mass protostars: Herschel-HIFI observations of the DR21 region

F. F. S. van der Tak, M. G. Marseille, F. Herpin +1

Water is a key molecule in the star formation process, but its spatial distribution in star-forming regions is not well known. We study the distribution of dust continuum and H2O a…
