The evolution of C4H and c-C3H2 in molecular cores
Yijia Liu, Junzhi Wang, Ningyu Tang +8
Linear C4H and cyclic c-C3H2, as small unsaturated hydrocarbons, are the key precursors to complex organic molecules and are critical components of the interstellar medium. We pres…

Large scale mapping of [CI] and the [CI]-to-CO transition in Ophiuchus molecular cloud
Jifeng Xia, Ningyu Tang, Thomas G. Bisbas +10
Atomic carbon ([CI]) is a key species in the carbon chemistry of the interstellar medium (ISM). Using the Submillimeter Wave Astronomy Satellite (SWAS), we conducted a [CI](P$_…

Network of velocity-coherent filaments formed by supersonic turbulence in a very-high-velocity HI cloud
Xunchuan Liu, Tie Liu, Pak-Shing Li +17
The warm neutral medium (WNM) was thought to be subsonically/transonically turbulent, and it lacks a network of intertwined filaments that are commonly seen in both molecular cloud…
