On the depletion and accretion timescales of cold gas in local early-type galaxies
Timothy A. Davis, Martin Bureau
We consider what can be learnt about the processes of gas accretion and depletion from the kinematic misalignment between the cold/warm gas and stars in local early-type galaxies.…
The first Galaxy scale hunt for the youngest high-mass protostars
T. Csengeri, S. Bontemps, F. Wyrowski +17
The origin of massive stars is a fundamental open issue in modern astrophysics. Pre-ALMA interferometric studies reveal precursors to early B to late O type stars with collapsing e…
Multi-wavelength lens reconstruction of a -detected star-bursting galaxy
Nicholas Timmons, Asantha Cooray, Dominik A. Riechers +21
We present a source-plane reconstruction of a and -detected gravitationally-lensed dusty star-forming galaxy (DSFG) at using {\it Hubble}, S…
The bolometric and UV attenuation in normal spiral galaxies of the Herschel Reference Survey
S. Viaene, M. Baes, G. Bendo +11
The dust in nearby galaxies absorbs a fraction of the UV-optical-near-infrared radiation produced by stars. This energy is consequently re-emitted in the infrared. We investigate t…
H-ATLAS/GAMA: The nature and characteristics of optically red galaxies detected at submillimetre wavelengths
A. Dariush, S. Dib, S. Hony +39
We combine Herschel/SPIRE sub-millimeter (submm) observations with existing multi-wavelength data to investigate the characteristics of low redshift, optically red galaxies detecte…
The HerMES sub-millimetre local and low-redshift luminosity functions
L. Marchetti, M. Vaccari, A. Franceschini +44
We used wide area surveys over 39 deg by the HerMES collaboration, performed with the Herschel Observatory SPIRE multi-wavelength camera, to estimate the low-redshift, $0.02<z<…
Hunting for the signatures of molecular cloud formation
Simon C. O. Glover, Paul C. Clark
In order to understand how molecular clouds form in the Galactic interstellar medium, we would like to be able to map the structure and kinematics of the gas flows responsible for…
The Arecibo Galaxy Environment Survey X: The Structure of Halo Gas Around M33
Olivia Keenan, Jonathan Davies, Rhys Taylor +1
As part of the HI Arecibo Galaxy Environments Survey (AGES) we have observed 54 degrees of sky centred on M33, reaching a limiting column density of $\sim 1.5 \times 10^{17…
Gravity as the main driver of non-thermal motions in massive star formation
A. Traficante, G. A. Fuller, R. Smith +5
The origin of non-thermal motions in massive star forming regions can be ascribed to turbulence acting against the gravitational collapse, or to the self-gravity itself driving the…
The Arecibo Galaxy Environment Survey IX: The Isolated Galaxy Sample
R. F. Minchin, R. Auld, J. I. Davies +6
We have used the Arecibo L-band Feed Array to map three regions, each of 5 square degrees, around the isolated galaxies NGC 1156, UGC 2082, and NGC 5523. In the vicinity of these g…
The Herschel Point Source Catalogue
Gábor Marton, Bernhard Schulz, Bruno Altieri +12
The Herschel Space Observatory was the fourth cornerstone mission in the European Space Agency (ESA) science programme with excellent broad band imaging capabilities in the sub-mm…
Impact of supernova and cosmic-ray driving on the surface brightness of the galactic halo in soft X-rays
Thomas Peters, Philipp Girichidis, Andrea Gatto +7
The halo of the Milky Way contains a hot plasma with a surface brightness in soft X-rays of the order erg cm s deg. The origin of this gas is unclear…
The MASSIVE Survey - III. Molecular gas and a broken Tully-Fisher relation in the most massive early-type galaxies
Timothy A. Davis, Jenny Greene, Chung-Pei Ma +4
In this work we present CO(1-0) and CO(2-1) observations of a pilot sample of 15 early-type galaxies (ETGs) drawn from the MASSIVE galaxy survey, a volume-limited integral-field sp…
Star formation and molecular hydrogen in dwarf galaxies: a non-equilibrium view
Chia-Yu Hu, Thorsten Naab, Stefanie Walch +2
We study the connection of star formation to atomic (HI) and molecular hydrogen (H) in isolated, low metallicity dwarf galaxies with high-resolution ( = 4 M$_\odot…
A possible link between the power spectrum of interstellar filaments and the origin of the prestellar core mass function
A. Roy, Ph. Andre', D. Arzoumanian +17
Two major features of the prestellar CMF are: 1) a broad peak below 1 Msun, presumably corresponding to a mean gravitational fragmentation scale, and 2) a characteristic power-law…
Launching cosmic-ray-driven outflows from the magnetized interstellar medium
Philipp Girichidis, Thorsten Naab, Stefanie Walch +10
We present a hydrodynamical simulation of the turbulent, magnetized, supernova (SN)-driven interstellar medium (ISM) in a stratified box that dynamically couples the injection and…
Synthetic observations of molecular clouds in a galactic center environment: I. Studying maps of column density and integrated intensity
Erik Bertram, Simon C. O. Glover, Paul C. Clark +2
We run numerical simulations of molecular clouds (MCs), adopting properties similar to those found in the Central Molecular Zone (CMZ) of the Milky Way. For this, we employ the mov…
Balloon-Borne Submillimeter Polarimetry of the Vela C Molecular Cloud: Systematic Dependence of Polarization Fraction on Column Density and Local Polarization-Angle Dispersion
Laura M. Fissel, Peter A. R. Ade, Francesco E. Angilè +27
We present results for Vela C obtained during the 2012 flight of the Balloon-borne Large Aperture Submillimeter Telescope for Polarimetry (BLASTPol). We mapped polarized intensity…
Is atomic carbon a good tracer of molecular gas in metal-poor galaxies?
Simon C. O. Glover, Paul C. Clark
Carbon monoxide (CO) is widely used as a tracer of molecular hydrogen (H2) in metal-rich galaxies, but is known to become ineffective in low metallicity dwarf galaxies. Atomic carb…
The JCMT Plane Survey: early results from the l = 30 degree field
T. J. T. Moore, R. Plume, M. A. Thompson +55
We present early results from the JCMT Plane Survey (JPS), which has surveyed the northern inner Galactic plane between longitudes l=7 and l=63 degrees in the 850-μm continuum with…
