Molecular Tracers of Embedded Star Formation in Ophiuchus
Melissa Gurney, Rene Plume, Doug Johnstone
In this paper we analyze nine SCUBA cores in Ophiuchus using the second-lowest rotational transitions of four molecular species (12CO, 13CO, C18O, and C17O) to search for clues to…
The James Clerk Maxwell Telescope Legacy Survey of Nearby Star-forming Regions in the Gould Belt
D. Ward-Thompson, J. Di Francesco, J. Hatchell +59
This paper describes a James Clerk Maxwell Telescope (JCMT) legacy survey that has been awarded roughly 500 hrs of observing time to be carried out from 2007 to 2009. In this surve…
The IC1396N proto-cluster at a scale of 250 AU
R. Neri, A. Fuente, C. Ceccarelli +7
We investigate the mm-morphology of IC1396N with unprecedented spatial resolution to analyze its dust and molecular gas properties, and draw comparisons with objects of similar mas…
Molecular oxygen in the rho Ophiuchi cloud
B. Larsson, R. Liseau, L. Pagani +56
Molecular oxygen, O2 has been expected historically to be an abundant component of the chemical species in molecular clouds and, as such, an important coolant of the dense interste…
The JCMT Spectral Legacy Survey
R. Plume, G. A. Fuller, F. Helmich +30
Stars form in the densest, coldest, most quiescent regions of molecular clouds. Molecules provide the only probes which can reveal the dynamics, physics, chemistry and evolution of…
Molecular Line Observations of Infrared Dark Clouds: Seeking the Precursors to Intermediate and Massive Star Formation
Sarah E. Ragan, Edwin A. Bergin, Rene Plume +4
We have identified 41 infrared dark clouds from the 8 micron maps of the Midcourse Space Experiment (MSX), selected to be found within one square degree areas centered on known ult…
