Triggered/sequential star formation? A multi-phase ISM study around the prominent IRDC G18.93-0.03

J. Tackenberg, H. Beuther, R. Plume +5

G18.93-0.03 is a prominent dust complex within an 0.8deg long filament, with the molecular clump G18.93/m being IR dark from near IR wavelength up to 160mu. Spitzer composite image…

The CO-to-H2 Conversion Factor and Dust-to-Gas Ratio on Kiloparsec Scales in Nearby Galaxies

K. M. Sandstrom, A. K. Leroy, F. Walter +42

We present kiloparsec (kpc) spatial resolution maps of the CO-to-H2 conversion factor (alpha_co) and dust-to-gas ratio (DGR) in 26 nearby, star-forming galaxies. We have simultaneo…

The Earliest Phases of Star formation observed with Herschel (EPoS): The dust temperature and density distributions of B68

M. Nielbock, R. Launhardt, J. Steinacker +13

(Abriged) In the framework of the Herschel GTKP "The earliest phases of star formation", we have imaged B68 between 100 and 500 um. Ancillary (sub)mm data, spectral line maps of th…

Molecular line survey of the high-mass star-forming region NGC 6334I with Herschel/HIFI and the SMA

A. Zernickel, P. Schilke, A. Schmiedeke +7

We aim at deriving the molecular abundances and temperatures of the hot molecular cores in the high-mass star-forming region NGC 6334I and consequently deriving their physical and…

The Earliest Phases of Star Formation (EPoS): A Herschel Key Program - The precursors to high-mass stars and clusters

Sarah Ragan, Thomas Henning, Oliver Krause +14

(Abridged) We present an overview of the sample of high-mass star and cluster forming regions observed as part of the Earliest Phases of Star Formation (EPoS) Herschel Guaranteed T…

The heating of dust by old stellar populations in the Bulge of M31

Brent Groves, Oliver Krause, Karin Sandstrom +9

We use new Herschel multi-band imaging of the Andromeda galaxy to analyze how dust heating occurs in the central regions of galaxy spheroids that are essentially devoid of young st…
