Abstract
We report on FIR measurements of the dust component towards LVC 88+36-2, a dense neutral filament in the Local Hot Bubble. The measurements were performed with ISOPHOT, the photometer on-board ESA’s Infrared Space Observatory ISO 1. The dust temperature derived is about 18 K and stays constant across the filament. Limb brightening at 60µm is measured in agreement with cirrus clouds not located in the Local Hot Bubble. No evidence for an increased UV radiation field along the boundaries of the cloud is found.
ISO is an ESA project with instruments funded by ESA Member States (especially the PI countries: France, Germany, the Netherlands and the United Kingdom) with the participation of ISAS and NASA.
