The per-tau shell: a giant star-forming spherical shell revealed by 3d dust observations

S Bialy, C Zucker, A Goodman, MM Foley… - The Astrophysical …, 2021 - iopscience.iop.org
A major question in the field of star formation is how molecular clouds form out of the diffuse
interstellar medium (ISM). Recent advances in 3D dust mapping are revolutionizing our view …
