A census of molecular hydrogen outflows and their sources along the orion a molecular ridge
(EDP Sciences, 2009-01-14)Aims. A census of molecular hydrogen flows across the entire Orion A giant molecular cloud is sought. With this paper we aim to associate each flow with its progenitor and associated molecular core, so that the characteristics ... -
Champagne flutes and brandy snifters: modelling protostellar outflow-cloud chemical interfaces
(Oxford University Press (OUP), 2014-08-06)A rich variety of molecular species has now been observed towards hot cores in star-forming regions and in the interstellar medium. An increasing body of evidence from millimetre interferometers suggests that many of these ... -
Gm 2-4: a signpost for low- and intermediate-mass star formation★
(Oxford University Press (OUP), 2011-11-08)We present a multi-wavelength study of the region towards the GM 2-4 nebula and the nearby source IRAS 05373+2340. Our near-infrared H2 10 S(1) line observations reveal various shock-excited features which are part of ... -
Observations of hcn hyperfine line anomalies towards low- and high-mass star-forming cores
(Oxford University Press (OUP), 2011-12-08)HCN is becoming a popular choice of molecule for studying star formation in both low- and high-mass regions and for other astrophysical sources from comets to high-redshift galaxies. However, a major and often overlooked ... -
Supersonic turbulence in the cold massive core jcmt 18354���0649s���
(Oxford University Press (OUP), 2009-11-21)An example of a cold massive core, JCMT 18354-0649S which is a possible high-mass analogue to a low-mass star-forming core, is studied. Line and continuum observations from James Clerk Maxwell Telescope, Mopra Telescope ... -
Unified models of molecular emission from class 0 protostellar outflow sources
(Oxford University Press (OUP), 2013-08-20)Low-mass star-forming regions are more complex than the simple spherically symmetric approximation that is often assumed. We apply a more realistic infall/outflow physical model to molecular/continuum observations of three ...
