The massive star forming complex G333 |
by Maria Cunningham (UNSW) |
Color-composite image of the massive star forming complex
G333, observed as part of a large project with the 22-m Mopra radio
telescope near Coonabarabran, NSW. The colors depict the following
temperature and density sensitive molecular line tracers:
HCN tracing warm gas (around 20 to 40 K),
HCO+ tracing warm gas with
outflow/infall, and N2H+
tracing really cold gas (less than 20 K). |
