On the Flux-Intensity Relation of Molecular Clouds

Qing-Zeng Yan, Ji Yang, Yang Su +7

In this work, we report a study on the relationship between flux and intensity for molecular clouds. Our analysis is established on high-quality CO images from the Milky Way Imagin…

The thermal state of molecular clouds in the Galactic Center: evidence for non-photon-driven heating

Y. Ao, C. Henkel, K. M. Menten +6

We used the Atacama Pathfinder Experiment (APEX) 12 m telescope to observe the J_KaKc=3_03-2_02, 3_22-2_21, and 3_21-2_20 transitions of para-H_2CO at 218 GHz simultaneously to det…

Ammonia (J,K) = (1,1) to (4,4) and (6,6) inversion lines detected in the Seyfert 2 galaxy NGC 1068

Y. Ao, C. Henkel, J. A. Braatz +3

We present the detection of the ammonia (NH3) (J,K) = (1,1) to (4,4) and (6,6) inversion lines toward the prototypical Seyfert 2 galaxy NGC 1068, made with the Green Bank Telescope…

Molecular Gas and Star formation in ARP 302

Yiping Ao, Dinh-V-Trung, Jeremy Lim +2

We present the Submillimeter Array observation of the CO J=2-1 transition towards the northern galaxy, ARP 302N, of the early merging system, ARP 302. Our high angular resolution o…
