Stellar feedback and triggered star formation in the prototypical bubble RCW 120
Matteo Luisi, Loren D. Anderson, Nicola Schneider +17
Radiative and mechanical feedback of massive stars regulates star formation and galaxy evolution. Positive feedback triggers the creation of new stars by collecting dense shells of…
4GREAT -- a four-color receiver for high-resolution airborne terahertz spectroscopy
Carlos A. Durán, Rolf Güsten, Christophe Risacher +13
4GREAT is an extension of the German Receiver for Astronomy at Terahertz frequencies (GREAT) operated aboard the Stratospheric Observatory for Infrared Astronomy (SOFIA). The spect…
First detection of 13CH in the interstellar medium
Arshia M. Jacob, Karl M. Menten, Helmut Wiesemeyer +3
In recent years, a plethora of high spectral resolution observations of sub-mm and FIR transitions of methylidene (CH), have demonstrated this radical to be a valuable proxy for H2…
First astrophysical detection of the helium hydride ion (HeH)
Rolf Güsten, Helmut Wiesemeyer, David Neufeld +7
During the dawn of chemistry when the temperature of the young Universe had fallen below 4000 K, the ions of the light elements produced in Big Bang nucleosynthesis recombine…
The upGREAT dual frequency heterodyne arrays for SOFIA
C. Risacher, R. Güsten, J. Stutzk +30
We present the performance of the upGREAT heterodyne array receivers on the SOFIA telescope after several years of operations. This instrument is a multi-pixel high resolution (R >…
The upGREAT 1.9 THz multi-pixel high resolution spectrometer for the SOFIA Observatory
C. Risacher, R. Guesten, J. Stutzki +19
We present a new multi-pixel high resolution (R >10^7) spectrometer for the Stratospheric Observatory for Far-Infrared Astronomy (SOFIA). The receiver uses 2 x 7-pixel subarrays in…
