The Herschel-ATLAS Data Release 2, Paper I. Submillimeter and Far-infrared Images of the South and North Galactic Poles: The Largest Herschel Survey of the Extragalactic Sky
Smith, Matthew W. L.; Dunne, Loretta; Viaene, Sébastien +11 more
We present the largest submillimeter images that have been made of the extragalactic sky. The Herschel Astrophysical Terahertz Large Area Survey (H-ATLAS) is a survey of 660 deg2 with the PACS and SPIRE cameras in five photometric bands: 100, 160, 250, 350, and 500 µm. In this paper we present the images from our two largest field…
Astrochemical Properties of Planck Cold Clumps
Sanhueza, Patricio; Choi, Minho; Di Francesco, James +26 more
We observed 13 Planck cold clumps with the James Clerk Maxwell Telescope/SCUBA-2 and with the Nobeyama 45 m radio telescope. The N2H+ distribution obtained with the Nobeyama telescope is quite similar to SCUBA-2 dust distribution. The 82 GHz HC3N, 82 GHz CCS, and 94 GHz CCS emission are often distributed differentl…
Discerning the Gamma-Ray-emitting Region in the Flat Spectrum Radio Quasars
Zhang, L.; Wang, J. C.; Yang, C. Y. +1 more
A model-dependent method is proposed to determine the location of the γ-ray-emitting region for a given flat spectrum radio quasar (FSRQ). In the model, the extra-relativistic electrons are injected at the base of the jet and non-thermal photons are produced by both synchrotron radiation and inverse-Compton (IC) scattering in the energy dissipatio…
Cross-correlating the γ-ray Sky with Catalogs of Galaxy Clusters
Viel, Matteo; Xia, Jun-Qing; Fornengo, Nicolao +4 more
We report the detection of a cross-correlation signal between Fermi Large Area Telescope diffuse γ-ray maps and catalogs of clusters. In our analysis, we considered three different catalogs: WHL12, redMaPPer, and PlanckSZ. They all show a positive correlation with different amplitudes, related to the average mass of the objects in each catalog, wh…
A Far-ultraviolet Fluorescent Molecular Hydrogen Emission Map of the Milky Way Galaxy
Edelstein, Jerry; Jo, Young-Soo; Min, Kyoung-Wook +2 more
We present the far-ultraviolet (FUV) fluorescent molecular hydrogen (H2) emission map of the Milky Way Galaxy obtained with FIMS/SPEAR covering ∼76% of the sky. The extinction-corrected intensity of the fluorescent H2 emission has a strong linear correlation with the well-known tracers of the cold interstellar medium (ISM), i…
Star Formation Conditions in a Planck Galactic Cold Clump, G108.84-00.81
Kim, Kee-Tae; Lee, Jeong-Eun; Liu, Tie +6 more
We present the results from a series of ground-based radio observations toward a Planck Galactic Cold Clump (PGCC), PGCC G108.84-00.81, which is located in one curved filamentary cloud in the vicinity of an extended H II region Sh2-152 and SNR G109.1-1.0. PGCC G108.84-00.81 is mainly composed of two clumps, “G108-N” and “G108-S”. In the 850 µ…
