Herschel/PACS observations of young sources in Taurus: the far-infrared counterpart of optical jets

L. Podio, I. Kamp, D. Flower +8

Observations of the atomic and molecular line emission associated with jets and outflows emitted by young stellar objects can be used to trace the various evolutionary stages they…

GASPS observations of Herbig Ae/Be stars with PACS/Herschel. The atomic and molecular content of their protoplanetary discs

G. Meeus, B. Montesinos, I. Mendigutia +3

We observed a sample of 20 representative Herbig Ae/Be stars and five A-type debris discs with PACS onboard of Herschel. The observations were done in spectroscopic mode, and cover…

GREAT [CII] and CO observations of the BD+40°4124 region

Göran Sandell, Helmut Wiesemeyer, Miguel Angel Requena-Torres +5

The BD+40\degree4124 region was observed with high angular and spectral resolution with the German heterodyne instrument GREAT in CO J = 13 \rightarrow 12 and [CII] on SOFIA. These…

Probing the Mass and Structure of the Ring Nebula in Lyra with SOFIA/GREAT Observations of the [CII] 158 micron line

R. Sahai, M. R. Morris, M. W. Werner +3

We have obtained new velocity-resolved spectra of the [CII] 158 micron line towards the Ring Nebula in Lyra (NGC 6720), one of the best-studied planetary nebulae, in order to probe…

Observations of a high-mass protostar in NGC 7538S

Melvyn Wright, Jun-Hui Zhao, Goran Sandell +3

We present high angular resolution continuum observations of the high-mass protostar NGC 7538S with BIMA and CARMA at 3 and 1.4 mm, VLA observations at 1.3, 2, 3.5 and 6 cm, and ar…
