The Photodissociation and Ionization Fronts in M17-SW Localized with FIFI-LS on Board SOFIA

To understand star formation rates, studying feedback mechanisms that regulate star formation is necessary. The radiation emitted by nascent massive stars play a significant role in feedback by photodissociating and ionizing their parental molecular clouds. To gain a detailed picture of the physical...
