Testing the global star formation relation: An HCO+ (3-2) mapping study of Red MSX sources in the Bolocam Galactic Plane Survey
David E. Schenck, Yancy L. Shirley, Megan Reiter +1
We present an analysis of the relation between the star formation rate (SFR) and mass of dense gas in Galactic clumps and nearby galaxies. Using the bolometric luminosity as a meas…
Evidence for Inflow in High-Mass Star-Forming Clumps
Megan Reiter, Yancy L. Shirley, Jingwen Wu +3
We analyze the HCO+ 3-2 and H13CO+ 3-2 line profiles of 27 high-mass star-forming regions to identify asymmetries that are suggestive of mass inflow. Three quantitative measures of…
The Physical Properties of High-Mass Star-Forming Clumps: A Systematic Comparison of Molecular Tracers
Megan Reiter, Yancy Shirley, Jingwen Wu +3
We present observations of HCO+ and H^13CO+, N2H+, HCS+, HCN and HN^13C, SO and ^34SO, CCH, SO_2, and CH_3OH-E towards a sample of 27 high-mass clumps coincident with water maser e…
