GHIGLS: HI mapping at intermediate Galactic latitude using the Green Bank Telescope
This paper introduces the data cubes from GHIGLS, deep Green Bank Telescope
surveys of the 21-cm line emission of HI in 37 targeted fields at intermediate
Galactic latitude. The GHIGLS fields together cover over 1000 square degrees at
9.55' spatial resolution. The HI spectra have an effective velocity resolution
about 1.0 km/s and cover at least -450 < v < +250 km/s. GHIGLS highlights that
even at intermediate Galactic latitude the interstellar medium is very complex.
Spatial structure of the HI is quantified through power spectra of maps of the
column density, NHI. For our featured representative field, centered on the
North Ecliptic Pole, the scaling exponents in power-law representations of the
power spectra of NHI maps for low, intermediate, and high velocity gas
components (LVC, IVC, and HVC) are -2.86 +/- 0.04, -2.69 +/- 0.04, and -2.59
+/- 0.07, respectively. After Gaussian decomposition of the line profiles, NHI
maps were also made corresponding to the narrow-line and broad-line components
in the LVC range; for the narrow-line map the exponent is -1.9 +/- 0.1,
reflecting more small scale structure in the cold neutral medium (CNM). There
is evidence that filamentary structure in the HI CNM is oriented parallel to
the Galactic magnetic field. The power spectrum analysis also offers insight
into the various contributions to uncertainty in the data. The effect of 21-cm
line opacity on the GHIGLS NHI maps is estimated.Comment: Accepted for publication in The Astrophysical Journal, 2015 July 16.

The Photoionization of a Star-Forming Core in the Trifid Nebula
We have carried out a comprehensive multiwavelength study of Bright-Rimmed Globule TC2 in the Trifid Nebula using the IRAM~30m telescope, the VLA centimeter array and the Infrared Space Observatory (ISO). TC2 is one of the very few globules to exhibit signs of active ongoing star formation while being photoevaporated. The study of the kinematics shows that TC2 is currently undergoing an implosion driven by the ionization field. The physical structure of the molecular core, the Photon-Dominated Region and the ionization front are characterized. The properties of the PDR are in good agreement with some recent PDR models. The molecular emission suggests that the star formation process was probably initiated a few 0.1 Myr ago, in the large burst which led to the formation of the nebula. The impact of photoionization on the star formation process appears limited.Peer reviewe

Explanatory Supplement of the ISOGAL-DENIS Point Source Catalogue
We present version 1.0 of the ISOGAL-DENIS Point Source Catalogue (PSC),
containing more than 100,000 point sources detected at 7 and/or 15 micron in
the ISOGAL survey of the inner Galaxy with the ISOCAM instrument on board the
Infrared Space Observatory (ISO). These sources are cross-identified, wherever
possible, with near-infrared (0.8-2.2 micron) data from the DENIS survey. The
overall surface covered by the ISOGAL survey is about 16 square degrees, mostly
(95%) distributed near the Galactic plane (|b| < 1 deg), where the source
extraction can become confusion limited and perturbed by the high background
emission. Therefore, special care has been taken aimed at limiting the
photometric error to ~0.2 magnitude down to a sensitivity limit of typically 10
mJy. The present paper gives a complete description of the entries and the
information which can be found in this catalogue, as well as a detailed
discussion of the data processing and the quality checks which have been
completed. The catalogue is available via the VizieR Service at the Centre de
Donn\'ees Astronomiques de Strasbourg (CDS,
http://vizier.u-strasbg.fr/viz-bin/VizieR/) and also via the server at the
Institut d'Astrophysique de Paris (http://www-isogal.iap.fr/). A more complete
version of this paper, including a detailed description of the data processing,
is available in electronic form through the ADS service.Comment: 21 pages, 7 figures. A&A in press. Full length version with 32
