• Carbon ionization potential : 11.3 eV• One of the dominant cooling lines of interstellar gas• Early stages of star formation • 0.3% of the bolometric FIR emission of the Galaxy (Wright et al. 91)• Seen “everywhere”

htSAFARI mapping speed
• Say the cloud is 1.75 kpc away, 1.6º across• Pixel size is 5.75” (ie that of the SAFARI FPA pixels)• FPA is 20x20 (FOV=2’x2’)• 2600 pointings needing between 1 and 24 seconds• Total mapping time : 4.5 hours

Conclusions
• Heavy computations : a few hours per “clump”• Convergence issues in low density regions• Geometry issue : requires 2D/3D PDR code
SAFARI will be able to map the [CII] emission over large areas in a short time
