Centimetre-wave continuum radiation from the rho Ophiuchi molecular cloud
The ρ Oph molecular cloud is undergoing intermediate-mass star formation. Ultraviolet radiation from its hottest young stars heats and dissociates exposed layers, but does not ionize hydrogen. Only faint radiation from the Rayleigh-Jeans tail of ∼10-100 K dust is expected at wavelengths longwards of...
