Enhancement of the 6.4 keV line in the inner Galactic ridge: Proton-induced fluorescence?
K. K. Nobukawa, M. Nobukawa, H. Uchiyama +7
A common idea for the origin of the Galactic diffuse X-ray emission, particularly that of the iron lines from neutral and highly ionized atoms, is a superposition of many cataclysm…
Cloud-cloud collision as a trigger of the high-mass star formation; a molecular line study in RCW120
K. Torii, K. Hasegawa, Y. Hattori +11
RCW120 is a Galactic HII region having a beautiful ring shape bright in infrared. Our new CO J=1-0 and J=3-2 observations performed with the NANTEN2, Mopra, and ASTE telescopes hav…
Isolating signatures of major cloud-cloud collisions using position-velocity diagrams
T. J. Haworth, E. J. Tasker, Y. Fukui +6
Collisions between giant molecular clouds are a potential mechanism for triggering the formation of massive stars, or even super star clusters. The trouble is identifying this proc…
High-mass star formation triggered by collision between CO filaments in N159 West in the Large Magellanic Cloud
Yasuo Fukui, Ryohei Harada, Kazuki Tokuda +20
We have carried out 13CO(J=2-1) observations of the active star-forming region N159 West in the LMC with ALMA. We have found that the CO distribution at a sub-pc scale is highly el…
