Filamentary Structure of Orion A

Astrophysics of Galaxies 2017-12-08 v1

Abstract

We present filamentary structure analysis based on the CARMA Orion Project through which we obtained high resolution (0.01pc) and high dynamic range (2~deg in DEC) images of the Orion A molecular cloud. We show a preliminary emission map of the 13^{13}CO emission with the addition of identified filaments. The data product resulted from 1500~hr of observing time at CARMA interferometer, and the Nobeyama 45~m telescope. We address basic filament properties along with calculated typical kinematical properties. Furthermore, we present a pilot study where we compare the observed [C{\sc II}] and [C{\sc I}] emission to 13^{13}CO emission towards 6 selected filaments in Orion~A.
