Journal ArticleDOI
PAH EMISSION AT THE BRIGHT LOCATIONS OF PDRs: THE grandPAH HYPOTHESIS
H. Andrews,C. Boersma,Michael W. Werner,John H. Livingston,Louis J. Allamandola,Alexander G. G. M. Tielens +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used the NASA Ames PAH IR Spectroscopic Database to fit the observations and analyze the derived PAH populations, and found that PAH emission in the 5-15 μm range appears to be rather insensitive to variations of the radiation field.
Journal ArticleDOI
The spitzer space telescope mission
TL;DR: The Spitzer Space Telescope as mentioned in this paper, NASA's Great Observatory for infrared astronomy, was launched 2003 August 25 and is returning excellent scientific data from its Earth-trailing solar orbit.
Journal ArticleDOI
Imaging of the Supernova Remnant Cassiopeia A with the Multiband Imaging Photometer for Spitzer (MIPS)
Dean C. Hines,Dean C. Hines,George H. Rieke,Karl D. Gordon,Jeonghee Rho,Karl Misselt,Charles E. Woodward,Michael W. Werner,Oliver Krause,William B. Latter,Charles W. Engelbracht,Eiichi Egami,D. M. Kelly,James Muzerolle,John Stansberry,Kate Y. L. Su,Jane E. Morrison,Erick T. Young,Alberto Noriega-Crespo,Deborah Padgett,Robert D. Gehrz,Elisha Polomski,Jeffrey W. Beeman,Eugene E. Haller +23 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors presented new images of the supernova remnant (SNR) Cas A observed in the 24 and 70 μm bands of the Spitzer Space Telescope (Spitzer).
Journal ArticleDOI
The 15-20 μm Spitzer Spectra of Interstellar Emission Features in NGC 7023
TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe future laboratory and observational research needed to identify the 18.9 � m feature carrier. And they consider candidate species for the feature, including polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, fullerenes, and diamonds.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Relationship between the Optical Depth of the 9.7 μm Silicate Absorption Feature and Infrared Differential Extinction in Dense Clouds
Jean Chiar,Kimberly Ennico,Yvonne J. Pendleton,Adwin Boogert,Thomas P. Greene,C. Knez,Charles J. Lada,T. L. Roellig,Aggm Tielens,Michael W. Werner,D. C. B. Whittet +10 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined the relationship between the optical depth of the 9.7 μm silicate absorption feature (τ_(9.7)) and the near-infrared color excess, E(J - K_s), in the Serpens, Taurus, IC 5146, Chameleon I, Barnard 59, and Barnard 68 dense clouds/cores.
