Differences in chemical evolution between isolated and embedded prestellar cores

F. D. Priestley, A. P. Whitworth, E. Fogerty

Models of prestellar cores often assume that the cores are isolated from their environment - material outside the core boundary plays no role in the subsequent evolution. This is u…

Resolved Molecular Gas Observations of MaNGA Post-starbursts Reveal a Tumultuous Past

Justin Atsushi Otter, Kate Rowlands, Katherine Alatalo +24

Post-starburst galaxies (PSBs) have recently and rapidly quenched their star-formation, thus they are an important way to understand how galaxies transition from star-forming late-…

Cool Interstellar Medium as an Evolutionary Tracer in ALMA-Observed Local Dusty Early-Type Galaxies

David H. W. Glass, Anne E. Sansom, Timothy A. Davis +1

The content and distribution of cool interstellar medium (ISM, <30K) can indicate the evolutionary mechanisms that transform late type to early type galaxies (ETGs). To investigate…
