A double core in the Auriga-California Molecular Cloud

Planck cold clump G163.82-8.44 is part of the Auriga-California Molecular Cloud. It was observed with Herschel PACS and SPIRE instruments as part of the Herschel open time key programme Galactic Cold Cores. Follow-up ground-based molecular line observation of NH₃ was performed to the densest part of the filament with the Effelsberg-100m telescope. We detected two different velocity components with a separation of 0.5 km/s. We performed radiative transfer modeling with two 3-dimensional spheres to characterise the temperature and density of the dense cores. We have found that the temperatures of the two cores are almost the same, 10.8 K and 11.1 K and their mass and size ratios are 1:10 and 1:5, respectively.
