PDRs4All: XVIII. The evolution of the PAH ionisation and PAH size distribution across the Orion Bar
Alexandros Maragkoudakis, Christiaan Boersma, Els Peeters +25
We investigate the evolution of the PAH population's charge state and size across key physical zones in the Orion Bar, which include the HII region, the atomic PDR (APDR), and thre…
PDRs4All XX. Haute Couture: Spectral stitching of JWST MIRI-IFU cubes with matrix completion
Amélie Canin, Cédric Févotte, Nicolas Dobigeon +3
MIRI is the imager and spectrograph covering wavelengths from to m onboard the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST). The Medium-Resolution Spectrometer (MRS) consists…
PDRs4All XIX. The 6 to 9 m region as a probe of PAH charge and size in the Orion Bar
Baria Khan, Samuel A. Daza Rodriguez, Els Peeters +24
Infrared emission from polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) play a major role in determining the charge balance of their host environments that include photo-dissociation region…
PDRs4All XIII. Empirical prescriptions for the interpretation of JWST imaging observations of star-forming regions
Ryan Chown, Yoko Okada, Els Peeters +17
(Abridged) JWST continues to deliver incredibly detailed infrared (IR) images of star forming regions in the Milky Way and beyond. IR emission from star-forming regions is very spe…
PDRs4All XI. Detection of infrared CH and CH rovibrational emission in the Orion Bar and disk d203-506: evidence of chemical pumping
Marion Zannese, Benoît Tabone, Emilie Habart +20
The methylidyne cation (CH) and the methyl cation (CH) are building blocks of organic molecules, yet their coupled formation and excitation mechanisms remain mainly unpro…
