Molecular cloud parameters

Parameter Value Unit
Hydrogen density 104 cm-3
Gas temperature 10.0 K
Dust temperature 10.0 K
Optical extinction 10.0 -
Mean grain radius 0.1 m
Cloud Lifetime 1.7 × 105 yr

Note: Parameter values of the molecular cloud model and integration time are chosen according to the method of Helling et al. (2014) recommended for TMC-1 (Taurus Molecular Cloud) by McElroy et al. (2013). Initial atomic abundances intended to represent typical diffuse interstellar medium conditions are also adopted from (McElroy et al. 2013).
