Detailed molecular observations toward the Double Helix Nebula
K. Torii, R. Enokiya, M. R. Morris +3
The Double Helix Nebula (DHN), located 100 pc above Sgr A* in the Galactic center (GC), is a unique structure whose morphology suggests it is a magnetic feature (Morris, Uchida & D…
High Excitation Molecular Gas in the Galactic Center Loops; 12CO(J =2-1 and J =3-2) Observations
Natsuko Kudo, Kazufumi Torii, Mami Machida +18
We have carried out 12CO(J =2-1) and 12CO(J =3-2) observations at spatial resolutions of 1.0-3.8 pc toward the entirety of loops 1 and 2 and part of loop 3 in the Galactic center w…
Temperature and Density in the Foot Points of the Molecular Loops in the Galactic Center; Analysis of Multi-J Transitions of 12CO(J=1-0, 3-2, 4-3, 7-6), 13CO(J=1-0) and C18O(J=1-0)
Kazufumi Torii, Natsuko Kudo, Motosuji Fujishita +22
Fukui et al. (2006) discovered two molecular loops in the Galactic center and argued that the foot points of the molecular loops, two bright spots at both loops ends, represent the…
Discovery of Molecular Loop 3 in the Galactic Center: Evidence for a Positive-Velocity Magnetically Floated Loop towards
Motosuji Fujishita, Kazufumi Torii, Natsuko Kudo +11
We have discovered a molecular dome-like feature towards and . The large velocity dispersions of 50--100 km s…
A Detailed Observational Study of Molecular Loops 1 and 2 in the Galactic Center
Kazufumi Torii, Natsuko Kudo, Motosuji Fujishita +11
Fukui et al. (2006) discovered two huge molecular loops in the Galactic center located in (l, b) ~ (355 deg-359 deg, 0 deg-2 deg) in a large velocity range of -180-40 km s^-1. Foll…
Similarity between the Molecular Loops in the Galactic Center and the Solar Chromospheric Arch Filaments
Kunio Takahashi, Satoshi Nozawa, Ryoji Matsumoto +6
We carried out two-dimensional magnetohydrodynamic simulations of the Galactic gas disk to show that the dense loop-like structures discovered by the Galactic center molecular clou…
