Hands-on projects for the 4th ALMA Summer School

Group 1: To study the physical conditions of the "Dark Neutral Medium (DNM)" that is not traced by CO(1-0) emission, we will examine HCO+ absorption spectra toward continuum sources located behind the Chameleon molecular cloud in the Milky Way (reference: Liszt et al. 2018, A&A, 617, 54).
