Surveying the Whirlpool at Arcseconds with NOEMA (SWAN)- I. Mapping the HCN and NH 3mm lines

Sophia K. Stuber, Jerome Pety, Eva Schinnerer +17

We present the first results from "Surveying the Whirlpool at Arcseconds with NOEMA" (SWAN), an IRAM Northern Extended Millimetre Array (NOEMA)+30m large program that maps emission…

Molecular clouds in M51 from high-resolution extinction mapping

Helena Faustino Vieira, Ana Duarte-Cabral, Timothy A. Davis +5

Here we present the cloud population extracted from M51, following the application of our new high-resolution dust extinction technique to the galaxy (Faustino Vieira et al. 2023).…

PDRs4All III: JWST's NIR spectroscopic view of the Orion Bar

Els Peeters, Emilie Habart, Olivier Berne +135

(Abridged) We investigate the impact of radiative feedback from massive stars on their natal cloud and focus on the transition from the HII region to the atomic PDR (crossing the i…

A sensitive, high-resolution, wide-field IRAM NOEMA CO(1-0) survey of the very nearby spiral galaxy IC 342

M. Querejeta, J. Pety, A. Schruba +31

We present a new wide-field 10.75 x 10.75 arcmin^2 (~11x11 kpc^2), high-resolution (theta = 3.6" ~ 60 pc) NOEMA CO(1-0) survey of the very nearby (d=3.45 Mpc) spiral galaxy IC 342.…

Characterizing the line emission from molecular clouds. II. A comparative study of California, Perseus, and Orion A

M. Tafalla, A. Usero, A. Hacar

We characterize the molecular-line emission of three clouds whose star-formation rates span one order of magnitude: California, Perseus, and Orion A. We use stra…

Aromatic cycles are widespread in cold clouds

M. Agundez, N. Marcelino, B. Tercero +1

We report the detection of large hydrocarbon cycles toward several cold dense clouds. We observed four sources (L1495B, Lupus-1A, L483, and L1527) in the Q band (31-50 GHz) using t…
