Results of the ESO-SEST Key Programme on CO in the Magellanic Clouds. IX. The giant LMC HII region complex N11 [PDF]
We present maps and a catalogue containing the J=1-0 12CO parameters of 29 individual molecular clouds in the second-brightest LMC star formation complex, N11.

FUSE Observations of Molecular Hydrogen in Translucent Interstellar Clouds: The Line of Sight Toward HD 73882 [PDF]
We report the results of initial FUSE observations of molecular hydrogen (H2) in translucent clouds. These clouds have greater optical depth than any of the diffuse clouds previously observed for far-UV H2 absorption, and provide new insights into the ...

CH observations of diffuse molecular clouds
A survey of CH 3.3 GHz emission from a sample of high-latitude molecular clouds, diffuse clouds, and heavily reddened globular clusters is presented. The F = 1-1 main-line transition was detected in every molecular cloud in the sample and in two out of four globular cluster lines of sight. The high rate of detections in the low-extinction high-latitude

IC 3418: Star Formation in a Turbulent Wake [PDF]
Galaxy Evolution Explorer observations of IC 3418, a low surface brightness galaxy in the Virgo Cluster, revealed a striking 17 kpc UV tail of bright knots and diffuse emission. H alpha imaging confirms that star formation is ongoing in the tail. IC 3418

[CII] observations of H$_2$ molecular layers in transition clouds [PDF]
We present the first results on the diffuse transition clouds observed in [CII] line emission at 158 microns (1.9 THz) towards Galactic longitudes near 340deg (5 LOSs) and 20deg (11 LOSs) as part of the GOT C+ survey.

Detection of hydrogen fluoride absorption in diffuse molecular clouds with Herschel/HIFI: a ubiquitous tracer of molecular gas [PDF]
We discuss the detection of absorption by interstellar hydrogen fluoride (HF) along the sight line to the submillimeter continuum sources W49N and W51.

Observational Constraints for Modeling Diffuse Molecular Clouds [PDF]
AbstractGround-based and space-borne observations of diffuse molecular clouds suggest a number of areas where further improvements to modeling efforts is warranted. I will highlight those that have the widest applicability. The range in CO fractionation caused by selective isotope photodissociation, in particular the large 12C16O/13C16O ratios observed

Towards an anagraphical picture of high-energy Galactic neutrinos [PDF]
The TeV/PeV neutrino emission from our Galaxy is related to the distribution of cosmic-ray accelerators, their maximal energy of injection as well as the propagation of injected particles and their interaction with molecular gas.

Dissociative Recombination of CH+ Molecular Ion Induced by Very Low Energy Electrons
We used the multichannel quantum defect theory to compute cross sections and rate coefficients for the dissociative recombination of CH + initially in its lowest vibrational level v i + = 0 with electrons of incident energy below 0 ...
