The Herschel-SPIRE instrument and its in-flight performance

M. J. Griffin, A. Abergel, A. Abreu +176

The Spectral and Photometric Imaging Receiver (SPIRE), is the Herschel Space Observatory`s submillimetre camera and spectrometer. It contains a three-band imaging photometer operat…

Silicon in the dust formation zone of IRC +10216 as observed with PACS and SPIRE on board Herschel

L. Decin, J. Cernicharo, M. J. Barlow +36

The interstellar medium is enriched primarily by matter ejected from evolved low and intermediate mass stars. The outflows from these stars create a circumstellar envelope in which…

Detection of anhydrous hydrochloric acid, HCl, in IRC+10216 with the Herschel SPIRE and PACS spectrometers

J. Cernicharo, L. Decin, M. J. Barlow +31

We report on the detection of anhydrous hydrochloric acid (hydrogen chlorine, HCl) in the carbon-rich star IRC+10216 using the spectroscopic facilities onboard the Herschel satelli…

The β Pictoris disk imaged by Herschel PACS and SPIRE

B. Vandenbussche, B. Sibthorpe, B. Acke +40

We obtained Herschel PACS and SPIRE images of the thermal emission of the debris disk around the A5V star β Pic. The disk is well resolved in the PACS filters at 70, 100, and 160 μ…

The Vega Debris Disc: A view from Herschel

B. Sibthorpe, B. Vandenbussche, J. S. Greaves +37

We present five band imaging of the Vega debris disc obtained using the Herschel Space Observatory. These data span a wavelength range of 70-500 um with full-width half-maximum ang…

Herschel-SPIRE observations of the Polaris flare : structure of the diffuse interstellar medium at the sub-parsec scale

M. -A. Miville-Deschênes, P. G. Martin, A. Abergel +42

We present a power spectrum analysis of the Herschel-SPIRE observations of the Polaris flare, a high Galactic latitude cirrus cloud midway between the diffuse and molecular phases.…
