Photon Dominated Regions in NGC 3603
M. Röllig, C. Kramer, C. Rajbahak +32
Aims: We aim at deriving the excitation conditions of the interstellar gas as well as the local FUV intensities in the molecular cloud surrounding NGC 3603 to get a coherent pictur…
A Sample of [CII] Clouds Tracing Dense Clouds in Weak FUV Fields observed by Herschel
Jorge L. Pineda, Thangasamy Velusamy, William D. Langer +4
The [CII] fine--structure line at 158um is an excellent tracer of the warm diffuse gas in the ISM and the interfaces between molecular clouds and their surrounding atomic and ioniz…
The relation between gas and dust in the Taurus Molecular Cloud
Jorge L. Pineda, Paul F. Goldsmith, Nicholas Chapman +4
(abridged) We report a study of the relation between dust and gas over a 100deg^2 area in the Taurus molecular cloud. We compare the H2 column density derived from dust extinction…
C detection of warm dark gas in diffuse clouds
W. D. Langer, T. Velusamy, J. L. Pineda +3
We present the first results of the Herschel open time key program, Galactic Observations of Terahertz C (GOT C+) survey of the [CII] fine-structure line at 1.9 THz (158 micron…
Supernova Remnants and Star Formation in the Large Magellanic Cloud
K. M. Desai, Y. -H. Chu, R. A. Gruendl +9
It has often been suggested that supernova remnants (SNRs) can trigger star formation. To investigate the relationship between SNRs and star formation, we have examined the known s…
Do Lognormal Column-Density Distributions in Molecular Clouds Imply Supersonic Turbulence?
K. Tassis, D. A. Christie, A. Urban +4
Recent observations of column densities in molecular clouds find lognormal distributions with power-law high-density tails. These results are often interpreted as indications that…
