We use APEX mapping observations of 13CO, and C18O (2-1) to investigate the internal gas kinematics of the filamentary cloud G350.54+0.69, composed of the two distinct filaments G350.5-N and G350.5-S. G350.54+0.69 as a whole is supersonic and gravitationally bound. We find a large-scale periodic velocity oscillation along the entire G350.5-N filament with a wavelength of ~1.3 pc and an amplitude of ~0.12 km/s. Comparing with gravitational-instability induced core formation models, we conjecture that this periodic velocity oscillation could be driven by a combination of longitudinal gravitational instability and a large-scale periodic physical oscillation along the filament. The latter may be an example of an MHD transverse wave. This hypothesis can be tested with Zeeman and dust polarization measurements.
We investigate the global properties of the straight and isolated filamentary cloud G350.54+0.69 using Herschel continuum and APEX molecular line data. The overall straight morphology is similar to two other well studied nearby filaments (Musca and T
Infrared Dark Clouds (IRDCs) are cold, high mass surface density and high density structures, likely to be representative of the initial conditions for massive star and star cluster formation. CO emission from IRDCs has the potential to be useful for
We perform ideal MHD high resolution AMR simulations with driven turbulence and self-gravity and find that long filamentary molecular clouds are formed at the converging locations of large-scale turbulence flows and the filaments are bounded by gravi
Fully sampled degree-scale maps of the 13CO 2-1 and CO 4-3 transitions toward three members of the Lupus Molecular Cloud Complex - Lupus I, III, and IV - trace the column density and temperature of the molecular gas. Comparison with IR extinction map
We present molecular line observations, made with angular resolutions of ~20, toward the filamentary infrared dark cloud G34.43+0.24 using the APEX [CO(3-2), 13CO(3-2), C18O(3-2) and CS(7-6) transitions], Nobeyama 45 m [CS(2-1), SiO(2-1), C34S(2-1),
