- W2024173203 abstract "We have characterized the physical structure and chemical composition of two close-to-round starless cores in Taurus-Auriga, L1498 and L1517B. Our analysis is based on high angular resolution observations in at least two transitions of NH3, N2H+, CS, C34S, C18O, and C17O, together with maps of the 1.2 mm continuum. For both cores, we derive radial profiles of constant temperature and constant turbulence, together with density distributions close to those of non-singular isothermal spheres. Using these physical conditions and a Monte Carlo radiative transfer model, we derive abundance profiles for all species and model the strong chemical differentiation of the core interiors. According to our models, the NH3 abundance increases toward the core centers by a factor of several 5) while N2H+ has a constant abundance over most of the cores. In contrast, both C18O and CS (and isotopomers) are strongly depleted in the core interiors, most likely due to their freeze out onto grains at densities of a few 104 cm-3. Concerning the kinematics of the dense gas, we find (in addition to constant turbulence) a pattern of internal motions at the level of 0.1 km s-1. These motions seem correlated with asymmetries in the pattern of molecular depletion, and we interpret them as residuals of core contraction. Their distribution and size suggest that core formation occurs in a rather irregular manner and with a time scale of a Myr. A comparison of our derived core properties with those predicted by supersonic turbulence models of core formation shows that our Taurus cores are much more quiescent than representative predictions from these models. In two appendices at the end of the paper we present a simple and accurate approximation to the density profile of an isothermal (Bonnor-Ebert) sphere, and a Monte Carlo-calibrated method to derive gas kinetic temperatures using NH3 data." @default.
