A 3D View of Orion: I. Barnard's Loop
Michael M. Foley, Alyssa Goodman, Catherine Zucker +11
Barnard's Loop is a famous arc of H emission located in the Orion star-forming region. Here, we provide evidence of a possible formation mechanism for Barnard's Loop and compare…
Synthetic dust polarization emission maps at 353 GHz for an observer placed inside a Local Bubble-like cavity
E. Maconi, J. D. Soler, S. Reissl +10
We present a study of synthetic observations of polarized dust emission at 353 GHz as seen by an observer within a cavity in the interstellar medium (ISM). The cavity is selected f…
The Star Formation Rate of the Milky Way as seen by Herschel
D. Elia, S. Molinari, E. Schisano +23
We present a new derivation of the Milky Way's current star formation rate (SFR) based on the data of the Hi-GAL Galactic plane survey. We estimate the distribution of the SFR acro…
How magnetic field and stellar radiative feedback influences the collapse and the stellar mass spectrum of a massive star forming clump
Patrick Hennebelle, Ugo Lebreuilly, Tine Colman +10
In spite of decades of theoretical efforts, the physical origin of the stellar initial mass function (IMF) is still debated. We aim at understanding the influence of various physic…
Properties of atomic hydrogen gas in the Galactic plane from THOR 21-cm absorption spectra: a comparison with the high latitude gas
Arghyadeep Basu, Nirupam Roy, Henrik Beuther +5
The neutral hydrogen 21 cm line is an excellent tracer of the atomic interstellar medium in the cold and the warm phases. Combined 21 cm emission and absorption observations are ve…
Magnetic fields do not suppress global star formation in low metallicity dwarf galaxies
David J. Whitworth, Rowan J. Smith, Ralf S. Klessen +5
Many studies concluded that magnetic fields suppress star formation in molecular clouds and Milky Way like galaxies. However, most of these studies are based on fully developed fie…
