Isolated starless cores in IRDCs in the Hi-GAL survey
L. A. Wilcock, D. Ward-Thompson, J. M. Kirk +15
In a previous paper we identified cores within infrared dark clouds (IRDCs). We regarded those without embedded sources as the least evolved, and labelled them starless. Here we id…
Cores in Infra-Red Dark Clouds (IRDCs) seen in the Hi-GAL survey between l = 300° and l = 330°
L. A. Wilcock, D. Ward-Thompson, J. M. Kirk +15
We have used data taken as part of the Herschel infrared Galactic Plane survey (Hi-GAL) to study 3171 infrared-dark cloud (IRDC) candidates that were identified in the mid-infrared…
The initial conditions of high-mass star formation: radiative transfer models of IRDCs seen in the Herschel Hi-GAL survey
L. A. Wilcock, J. M. Kirk, D. Stamatellos +13
The densest infrared dark clouds (IRDCs) may represent the earliest observable stage of high-mass star formation. These clouds are very cold, hence they emit mainly at far-infrared…
Modelling Herschel observations of infrared-dark clouds in the Hi-GAL survey
D. Stamatellos, M. Griffin, J. Kirk +5
We demonstrate the use of the 3D Monte Carlo radiative transfer code PHAETHON to model infrared-dark clouds (IRDCs) that are externally illuminated by the interstellar radiation fi…
Clouds, filaments and protostars: the Herschel Hi-GAL Milky Way
S. Molinari, B. Swinyard, J. Bally +121
We present the first results from the science demonstration phase for the Hi-GAL survey, the Herschel key-project that will map the inner Galactic Plane of the Milky Way in 5 bands…
