Cloud scale ISM structure and star formation in M51
(IOP Publishing Ltd, 2017)
We compare the structure of molecular gas at 40 pc resolution to the ability of gas to form stars across the disk of the spiral galaxy M51. We break the PAWS survey into 370 pc and 1.1 kpc resolution elements, and within ...
H-2 molecular gas absorption-selected systems trace CO molecular gas-rich galaxy overdensities
(Oxford, 2021)
Absorption-selected galaxies offer an effective way to study low-mass galaxies at high redshift. However, the physical properties of the underlying galaxy population remain uncertain. In particular, the multiphase ...
Molecular line emission as a tool for galaxy observations (LEGO). I. HCN as a tracer of moderate gas densities in molecular clouds and galaxies
(EDP Sciences, 2017)
Trends observed in galaxies, such as the Gao & Solomon relation, suggest a linear relationship between the star formation rate and the mass of dense gas available for star formation. Validation of such trends requires the ...
Breaks in the radial oxygen abundance and corotation radius of three spiral galaxies
(WILEY-BLACKWELL, 2011)
The correlation between the breaks in the metallicity distribution and the corotation radius of spiral galaxies has been already advocated in the past and is predicted by a chemodynamical model of our Galaxy that effectively ...
