Recent studies of the nearest star-forming clouds of the Galaxy at submillimeter wavelengths
with the Herschel Space Observatory have provided us with unprecedented images of the …

Understanding the formation of stars in galaxies is central to much of modern astrophysics.
However, a quantitative prediction of the star formation rate and the initial distribution of …

We present and discuss the results of the Herschel Gould Belt survey (HGBS) observations
in an~ 11 deg 2 area of the Aquila molecular cloud complex at d~ 260 pc, imaged with the …

Cold dark clouds are nearby members of the densest and coldest phase in the Galactic
interstellar medium, and represent the most accessible sites where stars like our Sun are …

CARBON isotopes from soil carbonate1–4 and soil organic matter5, 6 yield

We report the results of a 100 deg 2 survey of the Taurus molecular cloud region in 12 CO
and 13 CO J= 1\rightarrow 0. The image of the cloud in each velocity channel includes≃ …

In recent years, searches for molecular outflows driven by young stars have shown that most
of the low-mass embedded young stellar objects (YSOs) excite a molecular outflow (eg …
