The NIKA polarimeter on science targets. Crab nebula observations at 150 GHz and dual-band polarization images of Orion Molecular Cloud OMC-1
A. Ritacco, R. Adam, P. Ade +39
We present here the polarization system of the NIKA camera and give a summary of the main results obtained and performed studies on Orion and the Crab nebula. The polarization syst…
GASTON: Galactic Star Formation with NIKA2: A new population of cold massive sources discovered
N. Peretto, A. Rigby, R. Adam +43
Understanding where and when the mass of stars is determined is one of the fundamental, mostly unsolved, questions in astronomy. Here, we present the first results of GASTON, the G…
A NIKA view of two star-forming infrared dark clouds: Dust emissivity variations and mass concentration
A. J. Rigby, N. Peretto, R. Adam +39
The thermal emission of dust grains is a powerful tool for probing cold, dense regions of molecular gas in the ISM, and so constraining dust properties is key to obtaining accurate…
Probing changes of dust properties along a chain of solar-type prestellar and protostellar cores in Taurus with NIKA
A. Bracco, P. Palmeirim, Ph. André +45
The characterization of dust properties in the interstellar medium (ISM) is key for star formation. Mass estimates are crucial to determine gravitational collapse conditions for th…
