Primordial molecular clouds [PDF]

open access: yesConference on 3K cosmology, 1999
It is now well known that a primordial chemistry, involving light elements produced during the nucleosynthesis period, might develop during the hydrogen post-recombination era. In particular, molecular ions and primordial molecules such as H2, HD and LiH

Molecular clouds in the Galaxy [PDF]

open access: greenThe Astrophysical Journal, 1975
The J = 1 → 0 emission of CO has been surveyed in the galactic plane between ℓ = -10° and +90° with a U beam sampling every degree. Molecular clouds emitting in the CO line are plentiful over the inner region of the Galaxy. Their greatest number occurs in the galactic nucleus and at a radius of 5.5 kpc—a distribution similar to radio H II regions and ...

The Molecular Clouds of M31

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Deep interferometric observations of CO and dust continuum emission are obtained with the Submillimeter Array at 230 GHz to investigate the physical nature of the giant molecular cloud (GMC) population in the Andromeda galaxy (M31).

The Molecular Cloud Lifecycle [PDF]

open access: yesSpace Science Reviews, 2020
AbstractGiant molecular clouds (GMCs) and their stellar offspring are the building blocks of galaxies. The physical characteristics of GMCs and their evolution are tightly connected to galaxy evolution. The macroscopic properties of the interstellar medium propagate into the properties of GMCs condensing out of it, with correlations between e.g.

A Large Catalog of Accurate Distances to Local Molecular Clouds: The Gaia DR2 Edition [PDF]

open access: yesAstrophysical Journal, 2019
We present a uniform catalog of accurate distances to local molecular clouds informed by the Gaia DR2 data release. Our methodology builds on that of Schlafly et al.

Global hierarchical collapse in molecular clouds. Towards a comprehensive scenario [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2019
We present a unified description of the scenario of global hierarchical collapse (GHC). GHC constitutes a flow regime of (non-homologous) collapses within collapses, in which all scales accrete from their parent structures, and small, dense regions begin

Embedded Clusters in Molecular Clouds [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
▪ Abstract Stellar clusters are born embedded within giant molecular clouds (GMCs) and during their formation and early evolution are often only visible at infrared wavelengths, being heavily obscured by dust.
