Overview
|
The Hershel Gould Belt Survey is one of the largest Herschel Key Projects.
It conducted extensive far-infrared and submillimeter mapping of nearby molecular clouds
with both the SPIRE and PACS instruments. It covered the bulk of the nearest
(d ≤ 0.5 kpc) cloud complexes in the Galaxy, which are mostly located in the Gould Belt,
a giant (700 pc by 1000 pc), flat structure inclined by 20d to the Galactic plane. If you use HGBS data, please cite Andre et al. (2010). |
