The λ-Orionis Ring in CO
نویسنده
چکیده
The results of a new CO(J=1→0) survey of the ring of molecular clouds around the H ii region Sh-2-264 and the λ-Orionis OB-association are presented. The distribution of molecular gas closely approximates that of the dust seen in IRAS emission. The total molecular mass is 1.4×104 M . The mass spectrum of the emission clumps is a power-law with index -1.8, similar to that observed in other star-forming regions. The kinematics of the ring are modelled, but its alignment close to the plane of the sky allows only very weak constraints on expansion velocity and the age of the system. The data are compared with previous surveys, and possible evolutionary schemes for the region discussed.

High resolution ( 4") aperture synthesis maps of the CO (1 .... 0), 13CO (1 .... 0), 13CO ( 2 .... 1), and associated continuum emission from the FU Orionis candidate V1331 Cygni reveal a massive, 0.5±0.1510 , circumstellar disk surrounded by a flattened gaseous envelope, 6000X4400 AU in size, mass ;;.0.3210 . These images and lower resolution measurements also trace a bipolar outflow and gaseo...
متن کاملLambda Orionis: a 0.02–50 M⊙ Imf
We derive the initial mass function for the Col 69 cluster ( 5 Myr), covering several orders of magnitude in mass (50 – 0.02 M⊙). 1. The Lambda Orionis Star Forming Region One of the most amazing areas in the northern, winter sky is Orion and its myriads of star forming regions (SFR). One of the most prominent, albeit not very well studied, is the SFR dominated by the O8 III star λ Ori, the Lam...
متن کاملPost-outburst Observations of V1647 Orionis: Detection of a Brief Warm Molecular Outflow
We present new observations of the fundamental rovibrational CO spectrum of V1647 Ori, the young star whose recent outburst illuminated McNeil’s Nebula. Previous spectra, acquired during outburst in 2004 February and July, had shown the CO emission lines to be broad and centrally peaked, similar to the CO spectrum of a typical classical T Tauri star. In this Letter, we present CO spectra acquir...
متن کاملApplications of Epi-Retractable and Co-Epi-Retractable Modules
A module M is called epi-retractable if every submodule of M is a homomorphic image of M. Dually, a module M is called co-epi-retractable if it contains a copy of each of its factor modules. In special case, a ring R is called co-pli (resp. co-pri) if RR (resp. RR) is co-epi-retractable. It is proved that if R is a left principal right duo ring, then every left ideal of R is an epi-retractable ...
متن کاملThe Sum Graph of Non-essential Submodules
Throughout this paper, R will denote a commutative ring with identity and M is a unitary R- module and Z will denote the ring of integers. We introduce the graph Ω(M) of module M with the set of vertices contain all nontrivial non-essential submodules of M. We investigate the interplay between graph-theoretic properties of Ω(M) and algebraic properties of M. Also, we assign the values of natura...
