ABSTRACT We present compelling observational evidence of G133.50+9.01 being a bona fide cloud–cloud collision candidate with signatures of induced filament, core, and cluster formation. The CO molecular line observations reveal that the G133.50+9.01 complex is made of two colliding molecular clouds with systemic velocities, $\rm -16.9$ and $\rm -14.1\, km\, s^{-1}$. The intersection of the clouds is characterized by broad bridging features characteristic of collision. The morphology of the shocked layer at the interaction front resembles an arc-like structure with enhanced excitation temperature and H2 column density. A complex network of filaments is detected in the Submillimeter Common-User Bolometer Array 2 850 $\rm \mu m$ image with 14 embedded dense cores, all well correlated spatially with the shocked layer. A stellar cluster revealed through an overdensity of identified Classes I and II young stellar objects is found located along the arc in the intersection region corroborating with a likely collision induced origin.

This paper reports the latest design and the associated fabrication technology of the Mk II prototype infrared (IR) detector for the two 5120 pixel SCUBA-2 (submillimetre common user bolometer arry) instruments, which are to be mounted on the James Clerk Maxwell telescope (JCMT) in Hawaii. Progress is described on the design and the technology modules being developed for the new detector, which is based upon silicon micromachining. The two arrays of transition edge sensors (TES) are used to detect incoming radiation with wavelengths of 450 and 850 μ respectively and as the SCUBA-2 detector operates at about 100 mK, it consequently involves integration with low-temperature electronics and careful design of the associated interconnect. A key aspect of the connection between the TES detector and readout electronics is the use of indium flip-chip bumps, which become superconducting at cryogenic temperatures. The integration of nanoscale membranes and transition edge sensors together with microsystem technology enables SCUBA-2 to have of the order of 10 -17W (1 Hz bandwidth) sensitivity to incoming radiation.
