From forced collapse to H ii region expansion in Mon R2: Envelope density structure and age determination with Herschel
P. Didelon, F. Motte, P. Tremblin +32
The surroundings of HII regions can have a profound influence on their development, morphology, and evolution. This paper explores the effect of the environment on H II regions in…
A possible link between the power spectrum of interstellar filaments and the origin of the prestellar core mass function
A. Roy, Ph. Andre', D. Arzoumanian +17
Two major features of the prestellar CMF are: 1) a broad peak below 1 Msun, presumably corresponding to a mean gravitational fragmentation scale, and 2) a characteristic power-law…
Detection of two power-law tails in the probability distribution functions of massive GMCs
N. Schneider, S. Bontemps, P. Girichidis +20
We report the novel detection of complex high-column density tails in the probability distribution functions (PDFs) for three high-mass star-forming regions (CepOB3, MonR2, NGC6334…
Filaments in the Lupus molecular clouds
M. Benedettini, E. Schisano, S. Pezzuto +19
We have studied the filaments extracted from the column density maps of the nearby Lupus 1, 3, and 4 molecular clouds, derived from photometric maps observed with the Herschel sate…
Herschel Observations of the W3 GMC (II): Clues to the Formation of Clusters of High-Mass Stars
A. Rivera-Ingraham, P. G. Martin, D. Polychroni +18
The W3 GMC is a prime target for investigating the formation of high-mass stars and clusters. This second study of W3 within the HOBYS Key Program provides a comparative analysis o…
Planck intermediate results. XXXV. Probing the role of the magnetic field in the formation of structure in molecular clouds
Planck Collaboration, P. A. R. Ade, N. Aghanim +195
Within ten nearby (d < 450 pc) Gould Belt molecular clouds we evaluate statistically the relative orientation between the magnetic field projected on the plane of sky, inferred fro…
Planck intermediate results. XXXIV. The magnetic field structure in the Rosette Nebula
Planck Collaboration, N. Aghanim, M. I. R. Alves +197
Planck has mapped the polarized dust emission over the whole sky, making it possible to trace the Galactic magnetic field structure that pervades the interstellar medium (ISM). We…
