Carbon Monoxide Depletion in Orion B Molecular Cloud Cores
We have observed several cloud cores in the Orion B (L1630) molecular cloud in the 2–1 transitions of CO, CO and CO. We use these data to show that a model where the cores consist of very optically thick CO clumps cannot explain their relative intensities. There is strong evidence that the CO is not very optically thick. The CO emission is compared to previous observations of dust continuum emi...
متن کاملMapping Observations of DNC and HNC in Dark Cloud Cores
We present results of mapping observations of the DNC, HNC, and HCO lines (J=1-0) toward 4 nearby dark cloud cores, TMC-1, L1512, L1544, and L63, along with observations of the DNC and HNC lines (J=21) toward selected positions. By use of statistical equilibrium calculations based on the LVG model, the H2 densities are derived to be (1.4-5.5)×10 5 cm, and the [DNC]/[HNC] ratios are derived to b...
متن کاملYSOs in Collapsing Molecular Cloud Cores
The collapse of slowly rotating molecular cloud cores threaded by magnetic fields is investigated by high-resolution numerical simulation. Outflow formation in the collapsing cloud cores is also followed. In the models examined, the cloud core and parent cloud rotate rigidly and are initially threaded by a uniform magnetic field. The simulations show that the cloud core collapses along the magn...
متن کاملMagnetic Fields in Molecular Cloud Cores
Observations of magnetic field strengths imply that molecular cloud fragments are individually close to being in a magnetically critical state, even though both magnetic field and column density measurements range over two orders of magnitude. The turbulent pressure also approximately balances the self-gravitational pressure. These results together mean that the one-dimensional velocity dispers...
متن کاملWater Abundance in Molecular Cloud Cores
We present Submillimeter Wave Astronomy Satellite (SWAS) observations of the 110 → 101 transition of orthoH2O at 557 GHz toward 12 molecular cloud cores. The water emission was detected in NGC 7538, ρ Oph A, NGC 2024, CRL 2591, W3, W3(OH), Mon R2, and W33, and was not detected in TMC-1, L134N, and B335. We also present a small map of the H2O emission in S140. Observations of the H18 2 O line we...
