马头星云,星际物理和化学的模板源

The Horsehead nebula, a template source for interstellar physics and chemistry

Maryvonne Gerin, Jérôme Pety, Javier R. Goicoechea

摘要:

我们提出了一个总结,我们以前的调查的马头星云的物理和化学结构,并讨论这些研究如何导致进步的理解FUV辐射对致密的星际云的结构。特定的分子示踪剂可用于隔离不同的环境,这些环境对FUV辐射或密度的变化比分子气体的经典示踪剂更敏感:CO同位素或尘埃(亚)毫米连续辐射。它们包括FUV照射界面的HCO或CCH自由基,或冷致密核的分子离子H $^{13}$ CO $^+$、DCO $^+$和其他氘代物质(DNC、DCN)。我们讨论的背景下,赫歇尔和ALMA的未来前景。

英文摘要:

We present a summary of our previous investigations of the physical and chemical structure of the Horsehead nebula, and discuss how these studies led to advances on the understanding of the impact of FUV radiation on the structure of dense interstellar clouds. Specific molecular tracers can be used to isolate different environments, that are more sensitive to changes in the FUV radiation or density than the classical tracers of molecular gas : the CO isotopologues or the dust (sub)millimeter continuum emission. They include the HCO or CCH radicals for the FUV illuminated interfaces, or the molecular ions H$^{13}$CO$^+$, DCO$^+$ and other deuterated species (DNC, DCN) for the cold dense core. We discuss future prospects in the context of Herschel and ALMA.
