  1. 1. Satellite and ground based observations of massive star forming regions

    Författare :Henrik Olofsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; abundances - ISM; ISM; clouds - ISM; jets and outflows - ISM; ISM - Submillimeter; molecules - Radio lines;

    Sammanfattning : Results from submm/mm radio astronomical observations, using the astronomy/-aeronomy satellite Odin and the 20m telescope at the Onsala Space Observatory, are presented. Analysis of spectroscopic data of interstellar rotational emission lines from gaseous H2O residing in giant molecular clouds (GMCs), reveal important new clues about the chemistry and spatial distribution of water molecules in these regions, including estimates of the water abundance in molecular outflows associated with massive star formation.

  3. 3. Studies in Molecular Astrophysics and Astrobiology

    Författare :Eva Wirström; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Submillimeter; Radio lines: ISM; Astrobiology; ISM: individual objects: Orion KL; Molecular data; ISM: molecules;

    Sammanfattning : The molecules of the interstellar medium (ISM) can be used as probes of the physical conditions in a range of different types of interstellar environment, for example star forming regions. The first chapters of this thesis describe the theory and the observational techniques used to study the rotational transition emission from, and the present knowledge of, these molecules. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Molecular observations of obscured galaxy nuclei

    Författare :Niklas Falstad; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Galaxies: nuclei; Galaxies: ISM; Infrared: galaxies; ISM: Molecules; Submillimeter: galaxies;

    Sammanfattning : It is becoming evident that some (ultra)luminous infrared galaxies ((U)LIRGs) contain compact obscured nuclei (CONs) where luminosities in excess of 10^9 L☉  emerge from inside dusty regions smaller than 100 pc in diameter. Due to the obscured nature of these objects, their inner regions are hidden from examination using optical or infrared lines. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Companion wind shaping in binaries involving an AGB star

    Författare :Lam Doan; Sofia Ramstedt; Eric Lagadec; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; AGB and post-AGB stars; mass-loss; radio lines; binaries; wind shaping; Astronomy; Astronomi;

    Sammanfattning : Stars of initial masses between 0.8-8 M☉ will become "asymptotic giant branch" (AGB) stars during the final stages of their evolution. During this phase, the stars are characterized by low velocity and high-density winds. LÄS MER
