The Herschel SPIRE Fourier Transform Spectrometer Spectral Feature Finder I. The Spectral Feature Finder and Catalogue
R. Hopwood, I. Valtchanov, Locke D. Spencer +11
We provide a detailed description of the Herschel-SPIRE Fourier Transform Spectrometer (FTS) Spectral Feature Finder (FF). The FF is an automated process designed to extract signif…
Correcting the extended-source calibration for the Herschel-SPIRE Fourier-Transform Spectrometer
Ivan Valtchanov, R. Hopwood, G. Bendo +20
We describe an update to the Herschel-SPIRE Fourier-Transform Spectrometer (FTS) calibration for extended sources, which incorporates a correction for the frequency-dependent far-f…
Far-infrared/sub-millimetre properties of pre-stellar cores L1521E, L1521F and L1689B as revealed by the Herschel SPIRE instrument -- I. Central positions
Gibion Makiwa, David A. Naylor, Matthijs van der Wiel +5
Dust grains play a key role in the physics of star-forming regions, even though they constitute only 1 % of the mass of the interstellar medium. The derivation of accurate du…
Systematic characterisation of the Herschel SPIRE Fourier Transform Spectrometer
R. Hopwood, E. T. Polehampton, I. Valtchanov +17
A systematic programme of calibration observations was carried out to monitor the performance of the SPIRE FTS instrument on board the Herschel Space Observatory. Observations of p…
Physical structure of the photodissociation regions in NGC 7023. Observations of gas and dust emission with Herschel
M. Köhler, E. Habart, H. Arab +16
The determination of the physical conditions in molecular clouds is a key step towards our understanding of their formation and evolution of associated star formation. We investiga…
Herschel SPIRE FTS Spectral Mapping Calibration
Dominique Benielli, Edward Polehampton, Rosalind Hopwood +12
The Herschel SPIRE Fourier transform spectrometer (FTS) performs spectral imaging in the 447-1546 GHz band. It can observe in three spatial sampling modes: sparse mode, with a sing…
Observing Extended Sources with the \Herschel SPIRE Fourier Transform Spectrometer
Ronin Wu, Edward T. Polehampton, Mireya Etxaluze +20
The Spectral and Photometric Imaging Receiver (SPIRE) on the European Space Agency's Herschel Space Observatory utilizes a pioneering design for its imaging spectrometer in the for…
In-flight calibration of the Herschel-SPIRE instrument
B. M. Swinyard, P. Ade, J-P. Baluteau +55
SPIRE, the Spectral and Photometric Imaging Receiver, is the Herschel Space Observatory's submillimetre camera and spectrometer. It contains a three-band imaging photometer operati…
First detection of the Methylidyne cation (CH+) fundamental rotational line with the Herschel/SPIRE FTS
D. A. Naylor, E. Dartois, E. Habart +41
Aims. To follow the species chemistry arising in diverse sources of the Galaxy with Herschel. Methods. SPIRE FTS sparse sampled maps of the Orion bar & compact HII regions G29.96-0…
The physical properties of the dust in the RCW 120 HII region as seen by Herschel
L. D. Anderson, A. Zavagno, J. A. Rodon +41
Context. RCW 120 is a well-studied, nearby Galactic HII region with ongoing star formation in its surroundings. Previous work has shown that it displays a bubble morphology at mid-…
