Notes for Editors:
“First detection of water vapour in a pre-stellar core,” by P. Caselli et al. has been accepted for publication in Astrophysical Journal Letters.
Herschel studied the dark cloud L1544 as part of the Water in Star-forming regions with Herschel (WISH) key programme using the Heterodyne Instrument for the Far-Infrared spectrometer (HIFI) on Herschel.
Herschel is an ESA space observatory with science instruments provided by European-led Principal Investigator consortia and with important participation from NASA. HIFI was designed and built by a nationally funded consortium led by SRON Netherlands Institute for Space Research. The consortium includes institutes from France, Germany, USA, Canada, Ireland, Italy, Poland, Russia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and Taiwan.
