A Nearby Dark Molecular Cloud in the Local Bubble Revealed via H Fluorescence
Blakesley Burkhart, Thavisha E. Dharmawardena, Shmuel Bialy +20
A longstanding prediction in interstellar theory posits that significant quantities of molecular gas, crucial for star formation, may be undetected due to being ``dark" in commonly…
The Molecular Cloud Lifecycle II: Formation and Destruction of Molecular Clouds Diagnosed via H Fluorescent Emission Emission
Blakesley Burkhart, Shmuel Bialy, Daniel Seifried +11
Molecular hydrogen (H) formation and dissociation are key processes that drive the gas lifecycle in galaxies. Using the SImulating the LifeCycle of Molecular Clouds (SILCC) zoo…
The FLASHES Survey I: Integral Field Spectroscopy of the CGM around 48 QSOs
Donal O'Sullivan, Christopher Martin, Mateusz Matuszewski +5
We present the pilot study component of the Fluorescent Lyman-Alpha Structures in High-z Environments (FLASHES) Survey; the largest integral-field spectroscopy survey to date of th…
Revisiting the Temperature of the Diffuse ISM with CHESS Sounding Rocket Observations
Nicholas Kruczek, Kevin France, Keri Hoadley +2
Measuring the temperature and abundance patterns of clouds in the interstellar medium (ISM) provides an observational basis for models of the physical conditions within the clouds,…
The Orion fingers: H temperatures and excitation in an explosive outflow
Allison Youngblood, Kevin France, Adam Ginsburg +2
We measure H temperatures and column densities across the Orion BN/KL explosive outflow from a set of thirteen near-IR H rovibrational emission lines observed with the Trip…
