Left: mask of the filamentary network traced by getfilaments (Men’shchikov 2013) in the Herschel high-resolution column density map of the Aquila cloud complex. For better visualization, only angular scales up to 320″ (i.e., ~0.4 pc at d = 260 pc) are shown. The color scale displayed within the filamentary mask corresponds to column density values in the column density map (Fig. 1). The crests of the filaments traced by DisPerSE (Sousbie 2011) are overlaid in blue (see Sect. 4.2 for details). Right: blow-up of the subfield marked by the white square in the left panel, using the same color scale. (Color figure is available in the online version.)
