Role of General Users in the Lifecycle of Scientific Software
Bjorn Emonts, the CASA Team
In science, the lifecycle of software products is typically managed with limited resources while facing unlimited demand. Scientific software requirements are necessarily often dom…
The Emergence of Prebiotic Chemistry in the ISM
Izaskun Jimenez-Serra, Giuliana Cosentino, Francisco Montenegro-Montes +22
Contrary to popular belief, the interstellar medium (ISM) is not empty; it is filled with atoms, dust particles, and molecules. Some of these molecules may have been the very build…
The role of supernova remnants for the emergence of pre-biotic chemistry in molecular clouds
Giuliana Cosentino, Izaskun Jiménez-Serra, Laura Colzi +11
There is growing evidence that the Sun might have formed within a nebula impacted by at least one SNR. In this scenario, ejecta and shocks from SNRs may have provided the elements…
Globules and pillars in Cygnus X IV. Velocity-resolved [OI] 63 mu map of a peculiar proplyd-like object
N. Schneider, S. Dannhauer, E. Keilmann +14
We investigated an isolated, globule-shaped object (0.37x0.11 pc), located near the centre of the Cygnus OB2 cluster and named proplyd #7 in optical observations. The source can be…
Dust scattering halo of 4U 1630-47: High resolution X-ray and mm observations constrain source and molecular cloud distances
E. Kalemci, M. DÃaz Trigo, E. Oztaban +8
We re-investigated the distance to the black hole X-ray binary 4U 1630-47 by analyzing its dust scattering halo (DSH) using high-resolution X-ray (Chandra) and millimeter (APEX) ob…
