Water in star-forming regions (WISH): Physics and chemistry from clouds to disks as probed by Herschel spectroscopy

E. F. van Dishoeck, L. E. Kristensen, the WISH team

(abridged) Data and results from the WISH key program are summarized, designed to provide a legacy data set to address its physics and chemistry. WISH targeted ~80 sources along th…

Multi-line Herschel/HIFI observations of water reveal infall motions and chemical segregation around high-mass protostars

Floris van der Tak, Russ Shipman, Thierry Jacq +3

(Abridged) We use HIFI maps of the 987 GHz H2O 2(02)-1(11) emission to measure the sizes and shapes of 19 high-mass protostellar envelopes. To identify infall, we use HIFI spectra…

Structure and kinematics of the clouds surrounding the Galactic mini-starburst W43 MM1

T. Jacq, J. Braine, F. Herpin +2

Massive stars have a major influence on their environment yet their formation is difficult to study. W43 is a highly luminous galactic massive star forming region at a distance of…

The Herschel-HIFI view of mid-IR quiet massive protostellar objects

F. Herpin, L. Chavarria, T. Jacq +9

We present Herschel/HIFI observations (WISH KP) of 14 water lines in a small sample of galactic massive protostellar objects: NGC6334I(N), DR21(OH), IRAS16272-4837, and IRAS05358+3…

The massive protostar W43-MM1 as seen by Herschel-HIFI water spectra: high turbulence and accretion luminosity

F. Herpin, L. Chavarria, F. van der Tak +7

We present Herschel/HIFI observations of fourteen water lines in W43-MM1, a massive protostellar object in the luminous star cluster-forming region W43. We analyze the gas dynamics…

AGN disks and black holes on the weighting scales

Jean-Marc Huré, Franck Hersant, Clément Surville +2

We exploit our formula for the gravitational potential of finite size, power-law disks to derive a general expression linking the mass of the black hole in active galactic nuclei (…
