Fragmentation in molecular clouds [PDF]

open access: yesSymposium - International Astronomical Union, 1991
B209. Fragments are detected in the outer parts of the B209 molecular cloud in a region of density 1000 cm −3 using 12 CO, 13 CO, H 2 CO, IRAS 60 and 100

CO TO H2 RATIO OF INTERSTELLAR MOLECULAR CLOUDS IN THE DIRECTIONS OF EARLY TYPE STARS [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2004
We present measurements of interstellar CO absorption lines in the spectra of 7 early-type stars that were observed with the FUSE(Far Ultraviolet Spectroscopic Explorer).

Molecular line signatures of cloud–cloud collisions [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2021
ABSTRACT Collisions between interstellar gas clouds are potentially an important mechanism for triggering star formation. This is because they are able to rapidly generate large masses of dense gas. Observationally, cloud collisions are often identified in position–velocity (PV) space through bridging features between intensity peaks ...

The Molecular Clouds in a Section of the Third Galactic Quadrant: Cloud Catalog

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2023
We present results of cloud catalogs of ^12 CO, ^13 CO, and C ^18 O ( J = 1–0) in a section of the third Galactic quadrant over (195° < l < 220°, ∣ b ∣ < 5°) from the Milky Way Imaging Scroll Painting project.

Molecular Abundances in the Sgr a Molecular Cloud [PDF]

open access: yesSymposium - International Astronomical Union, 1992
We have obtained column densities for HCO+, HCO, HCS+, C3H2, HC5N, SiO, OCS, HCOOH, CH3CH2 OH, and CH3CCH toward Sgr A. The fractional abundance of SiO relative to molecular hydrogen in Sgr A is comparable to that for the Orion plateau, ~ 10−7 − 10−8, which may be a typical value for hot clouds.

Thermal desorption of water ice in the interstellar medium [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Water (H2O) ice is an important solid constituent of many astrophysical environments. To comprehend the role of such ices in the chemistry and evolution of dense molecular clouds and comets, it is necessary to understand the freeze-out, potential surface

Molecular-Clump Detection Based on an Improved YOLOv5 Joint Density Peak Clustering

open access: yesUniverse, 2023
The detection and analysis of molecular clumps can lead to a better understanding of star formation in the Milky Way. Herein, we present a molecular-clump-detection method based on improved YOLOv5 joint Density Peak Clustering (DPC). The method employs a

Evolution of prolate molecular clouds at HII boundaries - I. formation of fragment-core structures [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The evolution of a prolate cloud at an HII boundary is investigated using smoothed particle hydrodynamics. The prolate molecular clouds in our investigation are setwith their semi-major axis perpendicular to the radiative direction of a plane-parallel ...

Study the Effect of Perturbation in the Evolution of the Filamentary Molecular Clouds [PDF]

open access: yesIranian Journal of Astronomy and Astrophysics, 2020
Observatory studies indicate that stars are caused by the collapse of dense molecular clouds, and thermal instability can be a factor in creating this collapse.

Molecular clouds in M82

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 1984
CO observations of the peculiar galaxy M82 have been made at 79 positions using the 14 m FCRAO telescope (HPBW = 50'') in order to obtain a fully sampled map of the central 2 kpc as well as the radial distribution of molecular gas out to 3 kpc along the major axis.
