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 …

Understanding the physics of turbulence is crucial for many applications, including weather,
industry and astrophysics. In the interstellar medium,, supersonic turbulence plays a crucial …

Context. Molecular filaments have received special attention recently thanks to new
observational results on their properties. In particular, our early analysis of filament …

Synthetic observations are playing an increasingly important role across astrophysics, both
for interpreting real observations and also for making meaningful predictions from models. In …

Context. Molecular lines and line ratios are commonly used to infer properties of extra-
galactic star forming regions. The new generation of millimeter receivers almost turns every …

We present a new algorithm for detecting filamentary structure FilFinder. The algorithm uses
the techniques of mathematical morphology for filament identification, presenting a …

Star formation is primarily controlled by the interplay between gravity, turbulence, and
magnetic fields. However, the turbulence and magnetic fields in molecular clouds near the …

We present high-resolution, high dynamic range column-density and color-temperature
maps of the Orion complex using a combination of Planck dust-emission maps, Herschel …

Giant molecular clouds (GMCs) are the primary reservoirs of cold, star-forming molecular
gas in the Milky Way and similar galaxies, and thus any understanding of star formation must …

We present a detailed study of the Orion B molecular cloud complex (d~ 400 pc), which was
imaged with the PACS and SPIRE photometric cameras at wavelengths from 70 to 500 μm …
