چکیده

The Orion Kleinmann-Low nebula (Orion KL) is notoriously complex and exhibits a range of physical chemical components. We conducted high angular resolution (sub-arcsecond) observations $^13$CH$_{3}$OH $\nu=0$ ($\sim$0.3$^{\prime\prime}$ $\sim$0.7$^{\prime\prime}$) CH$_3$CN $\nu_8=1$ ($\sim$0.2$^{\prime\prime}$ $\sim$0.9$^{\prime\prime}$) line emission with the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) to investigate KL's structure on small spatial scales (${\le}350$ au). Gas kinematics, excitation temperatures, column densities were derived from molecular via pixel-by-pixel spectral fitting image cubes, enabling us examine small-scale variation these parameters. Sub-regions Hot Core have higher temperature in 0.2$^{\prime\prime}$ beam than 0.9$^{\prime\prime}$ beam, indicative possible internal sources heating. Furthermore, velocity field includes bipolar ${\sim}7{-}8$ km s$^{-1}$ feature southeast-northwest orientation against surrounding ${\sim}4{-}5$ field, which may be due an outflow. also find evidence source heating toward Northwest Clump, since there smaller versus larger beam. Finally, region southwest (Hot Core-SW) presents itself as particularly heterogeneous bridging Compact Ridge. Additional studies identify (hidden) luminosity within KL are necessary better understand its chemistry.

High Angular Resolution Mid-infrared Imaging of Young Stars in Orion BN/KL

We present Keck LWS images of the Orion BN/KL star forming region obtained in the first multi-wavelength study to have 0. 3-0. 5 resolution from 4.7μm to 22μm. The young stellar objects designated infrared sourcen and radio source I are believed to dominate the BN/KL region. We have detected extended emission from a probable accretion disk around sourcen but infer a stellar luminosity on the or...

High Resolution Λ=1mm Carma Observations of Large Molecules in Orion-kl

We present high resolution, Combined Array for Research in Millimeter-Wave Astronomy (CARMA), λ=1mm observations of several molecular species toward Orion-KL. These are the highest spatial and spectral resolution 1mm observations of these molecules to date. Our observations show that ethyl cyanide [C2H5CN] and vinyl cyanide [C2H3CN] originate from multiple cores near the Orion hot core and IRc7...

Wide-Field Thermal Imaging of the Orion Nebula at High Spatial Resolution

We describe multi-wavelength (8–20μm), diffraction-limited, midinfrared images of the OMC-1 cloud core in Orion, covering an approximately two arcminute area around the Trapezium and BN/KL regions. We have detected mid-infrared emission at the locations of a subset of the previously identified proplyds in the Orion Nebula along with two new infrared sources. The Ney-Allen nebula surrounding the...

Atomic silicon towards the Orion-KL nebula

We have used the Long Wavelength Spectrometer (LWS) on board ISO to observe the fine structure lines of atomic silicon at 68.5 and 129.7 microns towards the Orion KleinmannLow nebula. Our data show evidence for the detection of the J=2-1 transition at 68.5μm with a signal-to-noise ratio of 5. We consider the formation of the observed emission line and conclude that it is likely to form in the C...

High Resolution Millimeter-wave Mapping of Linearly Polarized Dust Emission: Magnetic Field Structure in Orion

We present 1.3 and 3.3 mm polarization maps of Orion-KL obtained with the BIMA array at approximately 4′′ resolution. Thermal emission from magnetically aligned dust grains produces the polarization. Along the Orion “ridge” the polarization position angle varies smoothly from about 10◦ to 40◦, in agreement with previous lower resolution maps. In a small region south of the Orion “hot core,” how...
