An atomic and molecular study of the interstellar medium around the supernova remnant RCW 103

We report on the detection of HCO? and 12CO emission in the rotational transition J ? 1?0 in the vicinity of the shock front at the southern border of the supernova remnant RCW 103, where previous infrared observations suggest an interaction with a molecular cloud. The observations were carried out...

ISM: clouds ISM: molecules ISM: supernova remnants supernova remnants: individual (G332.4-0.4,RCW 103) We report on the detection of HCO? and 12CO emission in the rotational transition J ? 1?0 in the vicinity of the shock front at the southern border of the supernova remnant RCW 103, where previous infrared observations suggest an interaction with a molecular cloud. The observations were carried out with the Australian Millimeter Radiotelescope at Mopra. We observed a depletion of HCO? behind the supernova shock front.

No atomic gas was observed in emission in coincidence with the molecular feature. This absence was interpreted in terms of self-absorption processes. © Astronomical Society of Australia 2006.
