NOEMA observations of W3(H2O) and W3(OH)
Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)
Presented here are NOEMA interferometric observations of the neighboring hot cores W3(H_2_O) and W3(OH).
Description
The presence of two star-forming cores at different evolutionary stages within the same parent cloud presents a unique opportunity to study how the physics of the source and its evolutionary stage impact the chemistry. Through spectral analysis and imaging, we identify over 20 molecules in these cores.
Most notably, we have detected HDO and CH_3_CH_2_CN in W3(OH), which were previously not detected in this core. We have imaged the molecular emission, revealing new structural features within these sources. W3(OH) shows absorption in a "dusty cocoon" surrounded by molecular emission.

These observations also reveal extended emission that is potentially indicative of a low-velocity shock. From the information obtained herein, we have constructed column density and temperature maps for methanol and compared this information to the molecular images. By comparing the spatial distribution of molecules that may be destroyed at later stages of star formation, this work demonstrates the impact of physical environment on chemistry in star-forming regions at different evolutionary stages.
