Simulations of the star-forming molecular gas in an interacting M51-like galaxy: cloud population statistics

Robin G. Tress, Mattia C. Sormani, Rowan J. Smith +5

To investigate how molecular clouds react to different environmental conditions at a galactic scale, we present a catalogue of giant molecular clouds resolved down to masses of $\s…

The Cloud Factory II: Gravoturbulent Kinematics of Resolved Molecular Clouds in a Galactic Potential

Andres F. Izquierdo, Rowan J. Smith, Simon C. O. Glover +6

We present a statistical analysis of the gravoturbulent velocity fluctuations in molecular cloud complexes extracted from our "Cloud Factory" galactic-scale ISM simulation suite. F…

A SOFIA Survey of [CII] in the galaxy M51 II. [CII] and CO kinematics across spiral arms

Jorge L. Pineda, Juergen Stutzki, Christof Buchbender +10

We present the first complete, velocity-resolved [CII] 158um image of the M51 grand-design spiral galaxy, observed with the upGREAT instrument on SOFIA. [CII] is an important trace…

Synthetic observations of spiral arm tracers of a simulated Milky Way analog

Stefan Reissl, Jeroen M. Stil, En Chen +16

Context: The Faraday rotation measure (RM) is often used to study the magnetic field strength and orientation within the ionized medium of the Milky Way. Observations indicate a RM…

The history of dynamics and stellar feedback revealed by the HI filamentary structure in the disk of the Milky Way

J. D. Soler, H. Beuther, J. Syed +19

We present a study of the filamentary structure in the emission from the neutral atomic hydrogen (HI) at 21 cm across velocity channels in the 40'' and 1.5-km/s resolution position…

Simulations of the Milky Way's central molecular zone -- II. Star formation

Mattia C. Sormani, Robin G. Tress, Simon C. O. Glover +5

The Milky Way's central molecular zone (CMZ) has emerged in recent years as a unique laboratory for the study of star formation. Here we use the simulations presented in Tress et a…
