摘要:

L1642是两个高银河纬度(|b| > 30度)的星云之一,被证实有活跃的恒星形成。我们研究这个云的性质,特别是大尺度结构,尘埃的性质,并在不同阶段的恒星形成的致密源。我们提出了高分辨率的远红外和亚毫米观测与赫歇尔和AKARI卫星和毫米观测与AzTEC/ASTE望远镜,我们结合档案数据从近红外和中红外(2 MASS,WISE)毫米观测(普朗克)。赫歇尔的观测,结合其他数据,显示了一系列的物体,从一个冷的团块到年轻的恒星物体,处于不同的演化阶段。源B-3(2 MASS J 04351455 -1414468)似乎是在L1642云内形成的YSO,而不是之前分类的前景棕矮星。Herschel的数据揭示了L1642周围弥漫的尘埃排放中的条纹。西部地区显示出向东北方向的条纹,在其南侧有一个陡峭的柱密度梯度。密集的中心区域有一个弓形激波状的结构,显示出从西部的压缩和向东延伸的惯性尾部。这些差异表明,这些可能是空间上不同的结构,仅在投影中对齐。我们推导出的尘埃发射截面每H核子的云的不同区域的值。修正黑体拟合的光谱能量分布的赫歇尔和普朗克数据给出发射率光谱指数β值为1.8-2.0的不同区域。致密源具有较低的β值,并且在T和β之间显示出一种近似的关系。马尔可夫链蒙特卡罗计算表明,β和T误差之间的强相关性和毫米普朗克数据的重要性,在约束的估计。L1642揭示了比以前已知的更复杂的恒星形成结构和序列。

英文摘要:

L1642 is one of the two high galactic latitude (|b| > 30deg) clouds confirmed to have active star formation. We examine the properties of this cloud, especially the large-scale structure, dust properties, and compact sources in different stages of star formation. We present high-resolution far-infrared and submm observations with the Herschel and AKARI satellites and mm observations with the AzTEC/ASTE telescope, which we combined with archive data from near- and mid-infrared (2MASS, WISE) to mm observations (Planck). The Herschel observations, combined with other data, show a sequence of objects from a cold clump to young stellar objects at different evolutionary stages. Source B-3 (2MASS J04351455-1414468) appears to be a YSO forming inside the L1642 cloud, instead of a foreground brown dwarf, as previously classified. Herschel data reveal striation in the diffuse dust emission around L1642. The western region shows striation towards NE and has a steeper column density gradient on its southern side. The densest central region has a bow-shock like structure showing compression from the west and a filamentary tail extending towards east. The differences suggest that these may be spatially distinct structures, aligned only in projection. We derive values of the dust emission cross-section per H nucleon for different regions of the cloud. Modified black-body fits to the spectral energy distribution of Herschel and Planck data give emissivity spectral index beta values 1.8-2.0 for the different regions. The compact sources have lower beta values and show an anticorrelation between T and beta. Markov chain Monte Carlo calculations demonstrate the strong anticorrelation between beta and T errors and the importance of mm Planck data in constraining the estimates. L1642 reveals a more complex structure and sequence of star formation than previously known.
