Mapping Active Star-Formation in Serpens and the Aquila Rift
T. A. Rector, R. M. P. Kerr, L. Prato +4
We report the results of a high-sensitivity survey for Herbig-Haro (HH) outflows in the Serpens-Aquila Rift using the DECam instrument on the 4-meter telescope. We have detected 88…
The SOFIA Massive (SOMA) Star Formation Survey. I. Overview and First Results
James M. De Buizer, Mengyao Liu, Jonathan C. Tan +6
We present an overview and first results of the Stratospheric Observatory For Infrared Astronomy Massive (SOMA) Star Formation Survey, which is using the FORCAST instrument to imag…
The curious morphology and orientation of Orion proplyd HST-10
Ralph Y. Shuping, Marc Kassis, John Bally +1
HST-10 is one of the largest proplyds in the Orion Nebula and is located approximately 1' SE of the Trapezium. Unlike other proplyds in Orion, however, the long-axis of HST-10 does…
A Massive Protostar Forming by Ordered Collapse of a Dense, Massive Core
Yichen Zhang, Jonathan C. Tan, James M. De Buizer +8
We present 30 and 40 micron imaging of the massive protostar G35.20-0.74 with SOFIA-FORCAST. The high surface density of the natal core around the protostar leads to high extinctio…
Spectral classification of the brightest objects in the galactic star forming region W40
R. Y. Shuping, William D. Vacca, Marc Kassis +1
We present high S/N, moderate resolution near-infrared spectra, as well as 10 micron imaging, for the brightest members of the central stellar cluster in the W40 HII region, obtain…
First Science Observations with SOFIA/FORCAST: 6 to 37 micron Imaging of the Central Orion Nebula
R. Y. Shuping, Mark R. Morris, Terry L. Herter +9
We present new mid-infrared images of the central region of the Orion Nebula using the newly commissioned SOFIA airborne telescope and its 5 -- 40 micron camera FORCAST. The 37.1 m…
