Abstrakt

We present Herschel/Photodetector Array Camera and Spectrometer (PACS)

observations of L1448-MM, a Class 0 protostar with a prominent outflow.

Numerous emission lines are detected at 55 1000 K) environment, indicative of a

shock origin. For OH, IR-pumping processes play an important role in the

level population. The molecular emission in L1448-MM is better explained

with a C-shock model, but the atomic emission of PACS [O I] and

Spitzer/Infrared Spectrograph [Si II] emission is not consistent with

C-shocks, suggesting multiple shocks in this region. Water is the major

line coolant of L1448-MM in the PACS wavelength range, and the best-fit

LVG models predict that H2O and CO emit (50%-80%) of their

line luminosity in the PACS wavelength range.
