Cloud formation in the atomic and molecular phase: HI self absorption (HISA) towards a Giant Molecular Filament
Y. Wang, S. Bihr, H. Beuther +20
Molecular clouds form from the atomic phase of the interstellar medium. However, characterizing the transition between the atomic and the molecular interstellar medium (ISM) is a d…
THOR - The HI, OH, Recombination Line Survey of the Milky Way - The pilot study: HI observations of the giant molecular cloud W43
S. Bihr, H. Beuther, J. Ott +30
To study the atomic, molecular and ionized emission of Giant Molecular Clouds (GMCs), we have initiated a Large Program with the VLA: 'THOR - The HI, OH, Recombination Line survey…
Kinematic and Thermal Structure at the onset of high-mass star formation
S. Bihr, H. Beuther, H. Linz +6
We want to understand the kinematic and thermal properties of young massive gas clumps prior to and at the earliest evolutionary stages of high-mass star formation. Do we find sign…
Characterizing the Youngest Herschel-detected Protostars I. Envelope Structure Revealed by CARMA Dust Continuum Observations
John J. Tobin, Amelia M. Stutz, S. Thomas Megeath +8
We present CARMA 2.9 mm dust continuum emission observations of a sample of 14 Herschel-detected Class 0 protostars in the Orion A and B molecular clouds, drawn from the PACS Brigh…
Carbon in different phases ([CII], [CI], and CO) in infrared dark clouds: Cloud formation signatures and carbon gas fractions
H. Beuther, S. E. Ragan, V. Ossenkopf +8
Context: How do molecular clouds form out of the atomic phase? And what are the relative fractions of carbon in the ionized, atomic and molecular phase? These are questions at the…
The earliest phases of star formation - A Herschel key project. The thermal structure of low-mass molecular cloud cores
R. Launhardt, A. M. Stutz, A. Schmiedeke +19
The temperature and density structure of molecular cloud cores are the most important physical quantities that determine the course of the protostellar collapse and the properties…
