YSOs around Cepheus B
The Cepheus B (Cep B) molecular cloud and a portion of the nearby Cep OB3b OB association, one of the most active regions of star formation within 1kpc, have been observed with... -
Kinematic distances to GRS molecular clouds
Kinematic distances to 750 molecular clouds identified in the ^13^COJ=1-0 Boston University-Five College Radio Astronomy Observatory Galactic Ring Survey (GRS) are derived... -
Giant molecular clouds (SRBY)
The properties of Galactic molecular clouds tabulated by Solomon et al. (SRBY; 1987ApJ...319..730S) are re-examined using the Boston University-FCRAO Galactic Ring Survey of... -
Spitzer IRDCs
We have conducted a survey of a sample of infrared-dark clouds (IRDCs) with the Spitzer Space Telescope in order to explore their mass distribution. We present a method for... -
Primordial circumstellar disks in binary systems
We combine the results from several multiplicity surveys of pre-main-sequence stars located in four nearby star-forming regions with Spitzer data from three different Legacy... -
Chandra study of Rosette star-forming complex. II.
We explore here the young stellar populations in the Rosette Molecular Cloud (RMC) region with high spatial resolution X-ray images from the Chandra X-ray Observatory, which are... -
Dense cores in Perseus
We present the chemistry, temperature, and dynamical state of a sample of 193 dense cores or core candidates in the Perseus Molecular cloud and compare the properties of cores... -
A Chandra X-ray observation of L1251B
I report the results of a 60ks X-ray observation of the L1251 dark cloud in Cepheus, which was acquired with the ACIS-I camera on board the Chandra X-Ray Observatory.... -
Extinction in star-forming regions
Using Spitzer Infrared Spectrograph observations of G0-M4III stars behind dark clouds, I construct 5-20um empirical extinction curves for 0.3<=A_K_<7, which is equivalent... -
Protostars in Perseus, Serpens and Ophiuchus
We present an unbiased census of deeply embedded protostars in Perseus, Serpens, and Ophiuchus, assembled by combining large-scale 1.1mm Bolocam continuum and Spitzer Legacy... -
Spectroscopy of YSOs in Serpens molecular cloud
We report on the results of an optical spectroscopic survey designed to confirm the youth and determine the spectral types among a sample of young stellar object (YSO)... -
Dense core survey in the Orion B cloud
We have carried out an H^13^CO^+^(J=1-0 at 86.75433GHz) core survey in a large area of 1deg^2^, covering most of the dense region in the Orion B molecular cloud, using the... -
90-GHz observations in NGC 1333
We observed the clustered star forming complex NGC 1333 with the BIMA and FCRAO telescopes in the transitions HCO+(1-0) and N_2_H+(1-0) over an area with resolution ~10"... -
Massive quiescent cores in Orion. II.
We have surveyed submillimeter continuum emission from relatively quiescent regions in the Orion molecular cloud to determine how the core mass function in a high-mass... -
Spitzer photometry in W3 molecular cloud
We present new images of the giant molecular cloud W3 obtained with the Infrared Array Camera (IRAC) and the Multiband Imaging Photometer for Spitzer (MIPS) on board the Spitzer... -
Giant molecular clouds in M31
We present Berkeley-Illinois-Maryland Association (BIMA) millimeter interferometer observations of giant molecular clouds (GMCs) along a spiral arm in M31. The observations... -
SCUBA observations in Orion A South region
We present results from a 2300arcmin^2^ survey of the Orion A molecular cloud at 450 and 850um using the Submillimeter Common-User Bolometer Array (SCUBA) on the James Clerk... -
