Observations of water with Herschel/HIFI toward the high-mass protostar AFGL 2591

Y. Choi, F. F. S. van der Tak, E. F. van Dishoeck +2

Water is a sensitive tracer of physical conditions in star-forming regions because of its large abundance variations between hot and cold regions. We use spectrally resolved observ…

A non-equilibrium ortho-to-para ratio of water in the Orion PDR

Y. Choi, F. F. S. van der Tak, E. A. Bergin +1

The ortho-to-para ratio (OPR) of HO is thought to be sensitive to the temperature of water formation. The OPR of HO is thus useful to study the formation mechanism of water…
