| Abstract: |
We present preliminary analysis of ALMA cycle 1 12m array 12CO /13CO /C18O data of the HH 46/47 molecular outflow. 13CO and C18O trace relatively denser outflow material than 12CO and allow us to trace the outflow to lower velocities than what it possible using only the 12CO emission. Interestingly, the cavity wall of the red lobe can be seen at velocity as low as 0.2 km/s. Using C18O, we are now able to estimate the optical depth of 13CO, and then use the corrected 13CO emission to further and better correct the 12CO emission and estimate the mass, momentum, and kinetic energy of the outflow. Moreover, C18O reveals a flattened rotational structure at the center, likely to be a rotational envelope infalling onto an inner Keplerian disk. |
