TL;DR
This paper analyzes the structure and star formation efficiency of the Vela C and W48 complexes using Herschel data, revealing insights into cloud morphology and starburst activity.
Contribution
It provides new detailed analysis of cloud structures and star formation efficiency in Vela C and W48, utilizing Herschel observations.
Findings
Vela C exhibits a specific column density distribution pattern.
W48 shows a high star formation efficiency indicative of a mini-starburst.
The study enhances understanding of star formation processes in these regions.
Abstract
We present recent results from the Herschel HOBYS guaranteed time key program of the Vela C andW48 star-forming complexes. We examine the column density distribution in Vela C, in particular focusing on the cloud structure using probability distribution functions, and characterise the star formation efficiency in W48.
