Herschel observations of EXtra-Ordinary Sources (HEXOS): Observations of H2O and its isotopologues towards Orion KL
G. J. Melnick, V. Tolls, D. A. Neufeld +49
We report the detection of more than 48 velocity-resolved ground rotational state transitions of H2(16)O, H2(18)O, and H2(17)O - most for the first time - in both emission and abso…
Reversal of infall in SgrB2(M) revealed by Herschel/HIFI observations of HCN lines at THz frequencies
Rainer Rolffs, Peter Schilke, Claudia Comito +54
To investigate the accretion and feedback processes in massive star formation, we analyze the shapes of emission lines from hot molecular cores, whose asymmetries trace infall and…
Nitrogen hydrides in interstellar gas: Herschel/HIFI observations towards G10.6-0.4 (W31C)
C. M. Persson, J. H. Black, J. Cernicharo +49
The HIFI instrument on board the Herschel Space Observatory has been used to observe interstellar nitrogen hydrides along the sight-line towards G10.6-0.4 in order to improve our u…
Herschel/HIFI measurements of the ortho/para ratio in water towards Sagittarius B2(M) and W31C
D. C. Lis, T. G. Phillips, P. F. Goldsmith +74
We present Herschel/HIFI observations of the fundamental rotational transitions of ortho- and para-HO and HO in absorption towards Sagittarius~B2(M) and W31C. The…
Herschel observations of ortho- and para-oxidaniumyl (H2O+) in spiral arm clouds toward Sgr B2(M)
P. Schilke, C. Comito, H. S. P. Mueller +55
H2O+ has been observed in its ortho- and para- states toward the massive star forming core Sgr B2(M), located close to the Galactic center. The observations show absorption in all…
Excitation and Abundance of C3 in star forming cores:Herschel/HIFI observations of the sight-lines to W31C and W49N
B. Mookerjea, T. Giesen, J. Stutzki +47
We present spectrally resolved observations of triatomic carbon (C3) in several ro-vibrational transitions between the vibrational ground state and the low-energy nu2 bending mode…
Interstellar OH+, H2O+ and H3O+ along the sight-line to G10.6-0.4
Maryvonne Gerin, M. De Luca, John Black +50
We report the detection of absorption lines by the reactive ions OH+, H2O+ and H3O+ along the line of sight to the submillimeter continuum source G10.60.4 (W31C). We used the He…
Detection of interstellar oxidaniumyl: abundant H2O+ towards the star-forming regions DR21, Sgr B2, and NGC6334
V. Ossenkopf, H. S. P. Müller, D. C. Lis +99
We identify a prominent absorption feature at 1115 GHz, detected in first HIFI spectra towards high-mass star-forming regions, and interpret its astrophysical origin. The character…
Discovery of the first wide L dwarf + giant binary system and eight other ultra-cool dwarfs in wide binaries
Z. H. Zhang, D. J. Pinfield, A. C. Day-Jones +11
We identify 806 ultra-cool dwarfs from their SDSS riz photometry (of which 34 are newly discovered L dwarfs) and obtain proper motions through cross matching with UKIDSS and 2MASS.…
