pyspeckit: A spectroscopic analysis and plotting package

Adam Ginsburg, Vlas Sokolov, Miguel de Val-Borro +4

pyspeckit is a toolkit and library for spectroscopic analysis in Python. We describe the pyspeckit package and highlight some of its capabilities, such as interactively fitting a m…

Probabilistic detection of spectral line components

Vlas Sokolov, Jaime E. Pineda, Johannes Buchner +1

Resolved kinematical information, such as from molecular gas in star forming regions, is obtained from spectral line observations. However, these observations often contain multipl…

'The Brick' is not a brick: A comprehensive study of the structure and dynamics of the Central Molecular Zone cloud G0.253+0.016

J. D. Henshaw, A. Ginsburg, T. J. Haworth +19

In this paper we provide a comprehensive description of the internal dynamics of G0.253+0.016 (a.k.a. 'the Brick'); one of the most massive and dense molecular clouds in the Galaxy…

Multicomponent kinematics in a massive filamentary IRDC

Vlas Sokolov, Ke Wang, Jaime E. Pineda +6

To probe the initial conditions for high-mass star and cluster formation, we investigate the properties of dense filaments within the infrared dark cloud G035.39-00.33 (IRDC G035.3…

A holistic perspective on the dynamics of G035.39-00.33: the interplay between gas and magnetic fields

Tie Liu, Pak Shing Li, Mika Juvela +54

Magnetic field is one of the key agents that play a crucial role in shaping molecular clouds and regulating star formation, yet the complete information on the magnetic field is no…

Subsonic islands within a high-mass star-forming IRDC

Vlas Sokolov, Ke Wang, Jaime E. Pineda +7

High-mass star forming regions are typically thought to be dominated by supersonic motions. We present combined Very Large Array and Green Bank Telescope (VLA+GBT) observations of…
