Far-UV photons strongly affect the physical and chemical state of molecular gas in the vicinity of young massive stars. We have obtained maps of the HCO and H13CO+ ground state lines towards the Horsehead edge at 5'' angular resolution with…
Carbonaceous nano-grains are a significant component of interstellar dust and dominate the mid-infrared emission of photodissociation regions (PDRs). We study the evolution of nano-grains across the illuminated edge of the Horsehead PDR,…
The HH 1/2 system has been observed with the two spectrometers on board the Infrared Space Observatory. Diffuse [CII] 158um emission indicate the presence of a Photo-Dissociation Region (PDR) which is only in part due to the external Far-UV…
High-dispersion echelle spectroscopy in optical forbidden lines of O^0, S^+, and S^2+ is used to construct velocity-resolved images and electron density maps of the inner region of the Orion nebula with a resolution of 10 km s-1 x 3" x 2".…
Gas plays a major role in the dynamical evolution of young stellar objects. Its interaction with the dust is the key to our understanding planet formation later on in the protoplanetary disc stage. Studying the gas content is a crucial step…
OMC-2 FIR 4 is one of the closest known young intermediate-mass protoclusters, located at a distance of 420 pc in Orion. This region is one of the few where the complete 500-2000 GHz spectrum has been observed with the heterodyne…
We present the detection of molecular oxygen with Odin toward the dense molecular core rho Oph A, which is part of a region of active star formation. The observed spectral line is the (N,J = 1,1-1,0) ground state transition of molecular…
We present CI 3P1-3P0 spectra at four spiral arm positions and the nuclei of the nearby galaxies M83 and M51 obtained at the JCMT. This data is complemented with maps of CO 1-0, 2-1, and 3-2, and ISO/LWS far-infrared data of CII (158…
Stellar mergers produce explosive outflows that serve as transient sources of IR line luminosity and inject mechanical energy early into the natal molecular cloud. We present the first velocity-resolved maps of the [O I] 63 and 145 um…
Micro-physical processes on interstellar dust surfaces are tightly connected to dust properties (i.e. dust composition, size and shape) and play a key role in numerous phenomena in the interstellar medium (ISM). The large disparity in…
The [CII] $158\,\mu\mathrm{m}$ fine-structure line is one of the dominant coolants of the neutral interstellar medium. It is hence one of the brightest far-infrared emission lines and can be observed not only in star-forming regions…
The most intensively star-forming galaxies are extremely luminous at far-infrared (FIR) wavelengths, highly obscured at optical and ultraviolet wavelengths, and lie at $z\ge 1-3$. We present a programme of ${\it Herschel}$ FIR spectroscopic…
We present an atlas of three-dimensional (position-position-velocity) spectra of the Orion Nebula in optical emission lines from a variety of different ionization stages: [O I] 6300, [S II] 6716,6731, [N II] 6584, [S III] 6312, H alpha…
According to traditional gas-phase chemical models, O2 should be abundant in molecular clouds, but until recently, attempts to detect interstellar O2 line emission with ground- and space-based observatories have failed. Following the…
We present observations towards one of the closest regions of high mass star formation, Orion BN/KL, performed at both low resolution mode (grating mode) and high resolution mode (Fabry-Perot) with the Long Wavelength Spectrometer on board…
At the distance of 99-116 pc, HD141569A is one of the nearest HerbigAe stars that is surrounded by a tenuous disk, probably in transition between a massive primordial disk and a debris disk. We observed the fine-structure lines of OI at 63…
[Abridged] We present maps of the main cooling lines of the neutral atomic gas ([OI] at 63 and 145 micron and [CII] at 158 micron) and in the [OIII] 88 micron line of the starburst galaxy M82, carried out with the PACS spectrometer on board…
The far-infrared (FIR) opacity of dust in dark clouds within the Ophiuchus molecular cloud is investigated through multi-wavelength infrared observations from UKIDSS, Spitzer and Herschel. Employing the infrared color excess technique with…
We have used the LONGSP spectrometer on the 1.5-m TIRGO telescope to obtain long slit spectra in the J, H, and K wavelength bands towards two positions along the Orion bar. These data have been supplemented with images made using the ARNICA…
H$_{\rm I}$ 21-cm and $^{12}$CO 2.6-mm line emissions respectively trace the atomic and molecular gas phases, but they miss most of the opaque H$_{\rm I}$ and diffuse H$_2$ present in the Dark Neutral Medium (DNM) at the transition between…
