Shocked Molecular Hydrogen in the LkH\alpha 234 Region
Abstract
We present near-IR images of the shocked gas in in HH 167 (the LkHα234 jet) and HH 103. The H2 1-0 S(1) (2.122µm) and the 1.644µm [FeII] lines were observed. The relative spatial distribution of these two lines provides some insight into the nature of the shocks producing the objects.
