From Clouds to Young Stellar Objects and back again: the all-in-one view from the Herschel infrared Galactic Plane Survey
Sergio Molinari INAF-IFSI, Rome, Italy | |
| From diffuse interstellar cirrus to dense atomic and molecular clouds, from protostellar to post-AGB envelopes, from super-shells to supernovae remnants, the Herschel Hi-GAL survey offer an unprecedented snapshot of all the different phases of the Galactic ISM, its evolution and interactions. I will present early results on a variety of topics including the lifetime of massive pre-stellar phases, the fragmentation and collapse of extended structures, the timeline for massive star formation, dust properties in cirrus and molecular clouds. | |
