Supernova enhanced cosmic ray ionization and induced chemistry in a molecular cloud of W51C
C. Ceccarelli, P. Hily-Blant, T. Montmerle +3
Cosmic rays pervade the Galaxy and are thought to be accelerated in supernova shocks. The interaction of cosmic rays with dense interstellar matter has two important effects: 1) hi…
Tracing the Energetics and Evolution of Dust with Spitzer: a Chapter in the History of the Eagle Nebula
N. Flagey, F. Boulanger, A. Noriega-Crespo +5
The Spitzer GLIMPSE and MIPSGAL surveys have revealed a wealth of details of the Galactic plane. We use them to study the energetics and dust properties of M16, one of the best kno…
X-ray Star Clusters in the Carina Complex
Eric D. Feigelson, Konstantin V. Getman, Leisa K. Townsley +11
The distribution of young stars found in the Chandra Carina Complex Project (CCCP) is examined for clustering structure. X-ray surveys are advantageous for identifying young stella…
The Chandra Carina Complex Project: Deciphering the Enigma of Carina's Diffuse X-ray Emission
Leisa K. Townsley, Patrick S. Broos, You-Hua Chu +11
We present a 1.42 square degree mosaic of diffuse X-ray emission in the Great Nebula in Carina from the Chandra X-ray Observatory Advanced CCD Imaging Spectrometer camera. After re…
Source Contamination in X-ray Studies of Star-Forming Regions: Application to the Chandra Carina Complex Project
Konstantin V. Getman, Patrick S. Broos, Eric D. Feigelson +6
We describe detailed simulations of X-ray-emitting populations to evaluate the levels of contamination by both Galactic and extragalactic X-ray sources unrelated to a star-forming…
An Introduction to the Chandra Carina Complex Project
Leisa K. Townsley, Patrick S. Broos, Michael F. Corcoran +32
The Great Nebula in Carina provides an exceptional view into the violent massive star formation and feedback that typifies giant HII regions and starburst galaxies. We have mapped…
