ISOCAM Molecular Hydrogen Images of the Cepheus E Outflow

Garnavich, Peter M.; Molinari, Sergio; Noriega-Crespo, Alberto

The physical characteristics of the Cepheus E ``embedded'' outflow are analyzed using ISOCAM images in the v = 0-0 S(5) 6.91 µm and S(3) 9.66 µm molecular hydrogen lines. We find that the morphology of the Cep E outflow in the ground vibrational H_2 lines is similar to that in the near-infrared v = 1-0 2.12 µm line. At these mid-…
