Ortho-H2 and the Age of Interstellar Dark Clouds
Interstellar dark clouds are the sites of star formation. Their main component, dihydrogen exists under two states, ortho and para. H2 is supposed to form in the ortho:para ratio (OPR) of 3:1 and to subsequently decay to almost pure para–H2 (OPR ≤ 0.001). Only if the H2 OPR is low enough, will deuteration enrichment, as observed in the cores of these clouds, be efficient. The second condition f...
متن کاملThe Ratio of Ortho- to Para-H2 in Photodissociation Regions
We discuss the ratio of orthoto para-H2 in photodissociation regions (PDRs). We draw attention to an apparent confusion in the literature between the ortho-to-para ratio of molecules in FUV-pumped vibrationally excited states, and the total H2 ortho-to-para abundance ratio. These ratios are not the same because the process of FUV-pumping of fluorescent H2 emission in PDRs occurs via optically t...
متن کاملortho-to-para ratio in shocked molecular gas
We report the results of spectroscopic mapping observations carried out toward the Herbig-Haro objects HH7–11 and HH54 over the 5.2 − 37μm region using the Infrared Spectrograph of the Spitzer Space Telescope. These observations have led to the detection and mapping of the S(0) – S(7) pure rotational lines of molecular hydrogen, together with emissions in fine structure transitions of Ne, Si, S...
متن کاملExtinction and dust/gas ratio in LMC molecular clouds
Aims. The goal of this paper is to measure the dust content and distribution in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) by comparing extinction maps produced in the near-infrared wavelengths and the spatial distribution of the neutral and molecular gas, as traced by H i and CO observations. Methods. In order to derive an extinction map of the LMC, we have developed a new method to measure the color ex...
