Interstellar Molecules: Formaldehyde, Molecular Clouds: Radiative Transfer, Infrared Cirrus: Formaldehyde

Scientific paper

The radiative transfer on formaldehyde in molecular clouds is analyzed and calculated by using a large velocity gradient model. The results for gas temperatures 10K, 20K, 40K, and 70K are presented schematically. It is shown that the observations of H2CO 110-111 and 211-212 transitions at a similar resolution can be used to estimate the gas density and H2CO fractional abundance in molecular clouds. In the range 20K - 100K the results are not very sensitive to the gas temperature. Some physical parameters of the core of the cirrus cloud 7 are estimated.
