Title

Herschel Gould Belt Survey

Description

The Herschel 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.

This dataset or service is made available by the Infrared Science Archive (IRSA) at IPAC, which is operated by the California Institute of Technology under contract with the National Aeronautics and Space Administration.
