Herschel Gould Belt Survey Observations of Dense Cores in the Cepheus Flare Clouds

James Di Francesco, Jared Keown, Cassandra Fallscheer +17

We present Herschel SPIRE and PACS maps of the Cepheus Flare clouds L1157, L1172, L1228, L1241, and L1251, observed by the Herschel Gould Belt Survey (HGBS) of nearby star-forming…

Relative Alignment between Dense Molecular Cores and Ambient Magnetic Field: The Synergy of Numerical Models and Observations

Che-Yu Chen, Erica A. Behrens, Jasmin E. Washington +26

The role played by magnetic field during star formation is an important topic in astrophysics. We investigate the correlation between the orientation of star-forming cores (as defi…

Velocity-coherent Filaments in NGC 1333: Evidence for Accretion Flow?

Michael Chun-Yuan Chen, James Di Francesco, Erik Rosolowsky +11

Recent observations of global velocity gradients across and along molecular filaments have been interpreted as signs of gas accreting onto and along these filaments, potentially fe…

CLOVER: Convnet Line-fitting Of Velocities in Emission-line Regions

Jared Keown, James Di Francesco, Hossen Teimoorinia +2

When multiple star-forming gas structures overlap along the line-of-sight and emit optically thin emission at significantly different radial velocities, the emission can become non…

KFPA Examinations of Young STellar Object Natal Environments (KEYSTONE): Hierarchical Ammonia Structures in Galactic Giant Molecular Clouds

Jared Keown, James Di Francesco, Erik Rosolowsky +23

We present initial results from the K-band focal plane array Examinations of Young STellar Object Natal Environments (KEYSTONE) survey, a large project on the 100-m Green Bank Tele…

The Green Bank Ammonia Survey: A Virial Analysis of Gould Belt Clouds in Data Release 1

Ronan Kerr, Helen Kirk, James Di Francesco +14

We perform a virial analysis of starless dense cores in three nearby star-forming regions : L1688 in Ophiuchus, NGC 1333 in Perseus, and B18 in Taurus. Our analysis takes advantage…
