Kinematic and Thermal Structure at the onset of high-mass star formation
S. Bihr, H. Beuther, H. Linz +6
We want to understand the kinematic and thermal properties of young massive gas clumps prior to and at the earliest evolutionary stages of high-mass star formation. Do we find sign…
Giant Molecular Filaments in the Milky Way
Sarah E. Ragan, Thomas Henning, Jochen Tackenberg +4
Throughout the Milky Way, molecular clouds typically appear filamentary, and mounting evidence indicates that this morphology plays an important role in star formation. What is not…
Kinematic structure of massive star-forming regions - I. Accretion along filaments
J. Tackenberg, H. Beuther, Th. Henning +8
The mid- and far-infrared view on high-mass star formation, in particular with the results from the Herschel space observatory, has shed light on many aspects of massive star forma…
Fragmentation and dynamical collapse of the starless high-mass star-forming region IRDC18310-4
H. Beuther, H. Linz, J. Tackenberg +9
Aims: We study the fragmentation and dynamical properties of a massive starless gas clump at the onset of high-mass star formation. Methods: Based on Herschel continuum data we ide…
The earliest phases of star formation - A Herschel key project. The thermal structure of low-mass molecular cloud cores
R. Launhardt, A. M. Stutz, A. Schmiedeke +19
The temperature and density structure of molecular cloud cores are the most important physical quantities that determine the course of the protostellar collapse and the properties…
G048.66-0.29: Physical State of an Isolated Site of Massive Star Formation
Jan Pitann, Hendrik Linz, Sarah Ragan +9
We present continuum observations of the infrared dark cloud (IRDC) G48.66-0.22 (G48) obtained with Herschel, Spitzer, and APEX, in addition to several molecular line observations.…
