Millimetric observations of IRDC cores

Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)

Infrared dark clouds (IRDCs) are dense molecular clouds seen as extinction features against the bright mid-infrared Galactic background.

Description

Millimeter continuum maps toward 38 IRDCs reveal extended cold dust emission to be associated with each of the IRDCs. IRDCs range in morphology from filamentary to compact and have masses of 120 to 16000M_{sun}_, with a median mass of 940M_{sun}_.

Each IRDC contains at least one compact (0.5pc) dust core and most show multiple cores. We find 140 cold millimeter cores unassociated with MSX 8{mu}m emission.
