High-resolution, 3D radiative transfer modelling IV. AGN-powered dust heating in NGC 1068
S. Viaene, A. Nersesian, J. Fritz +18
Dust emission, an important diagnostic of star formation and ISM mass throughout the Universe, can be powered by sources unrelated to ongoing star formation. In the framework of th…
High-resolution, 3D radiative transfer modelling III. The DustPedia barred galaxies
Angelos Nersesian, Sam Verstocken, Sebastien Viaene +17
Context: Dust in late-type galaxies in the local Universe is responsible for absorbing approximately one third of the energy emitted by stars. It is often assumed that dust heating…
High-resolution, 3D radiative transfer modelling. II. The early-type spiral galaxy M81
Sam Verstocken, Angelos Nersesian, Maarten Baes +14
Interstellar dust absorbs stellar light very efficiently and thus shapes the energetic output of galaxies. Studying the impact of different stellar populations on the dust heating…
The First Maps of -- the Dust Mass Absorption Coefficient -- in Nearby Galaxies, with DustPedia
Christopher J. R. Clark, Pieter De Vis, Maarten Baes +17
The dust mass absorption coefficient, , is the conversion function used to infer physical dust masses from observations of dust emission. However, it is notoriously poorly c…
High-Resolution Radiative Transfer Modelling of M33
Thomas G. Williams, Maarten Baes, Ilse De Looze +4
In this work, we characterise the contributions from both ongoing star formation and the ambient radiation field in Local Group galaxy M33, as well as estimate the scale of the loc…
DustPedia - the relationships between stars, gas and dust for galaxies residing in different environments
J. I. Davies, A. Nersesian, M. Baes +20
We use a sub-set of the DustPedia galaxy sample (461 galaxies) to investigate the effect the environment has had on galaxies. We consider Virgo cluster and field samples and also a…
Old and young stellar populations in DustPedia galaxies and their role in dust heating
A. Nersesian, E. M. Xilouris, S. Bianchi +19
Within the framework of the DustPedia project we investigate the properties of cosmic dust and its interaction with the stellar radiation (originating from different stellar popula…
Revealing the dust attenuation properties on resolved scales in NGC628 with SWIFT UVOT data
Marjorie Decleir, Ilse De Looze, Médéric Boquien +8
Understanding how dust attenuation laws vary between and within galaxies is a key question if we want to reliably measure the physical properties of galaxies at both global and loc…
Dust emission profiles of DustPedia galaxies
A. V. Mosenkov, M. Baes, S. Bianchi +19
Most radiative transfer models assume that dust in spiral galaxies is distributed exponentially. In this paper our goal is to verify this assumption by analysing the two-dimensiona…
HERschel Observations of Edge-on Spirals (HEROES). IV. Dust energy balance problem
Aleksandr V. Mosenkov, Flor Allaert, Maarten Baes +15
We present results of the detailed dust energy balance study for the seven large edge-on galaxies in the HEROES sample using 3D radiative transfer (RT) modelling. Based on availabl…
DustPedia: Multiwavelength Photometry and Imagery of 875 Nearby Galaxies in 42 Ultraviolet--Microwave Bands
Christopher J. R. Clark, S. Verstocken, S. Bianchi +16
The DustPedia project is capitalising on the legacy of the Herschel Space Observatory, using cutting-edge modelling techniques to study dust in the 875 DustPedia galaxies - represe…
Radial distribution of dust, stars, gas, and star-formation rate in DustPedia face-on galaxies
V. Casasola, L. P. Cassara, S. Bianchi +18
The purpose of this work is the characterization of the radial distribution of dust, stars, gas, and star-formation rate (SFR) in a sub-sample of 18 face-on spiral galaxies extract…
SKIRT: hybrid parallelization of radiative transfer simulations
Sam Verstocken, Dries Van De Putte, Peter Camps +1
We describe the design, implementation and performance of the new hybrid parallelization scheme in our Monte Carlo radiative transfer code SKIRT, which has been used extensively fo…
The Herschel Exploitation of Local Galaxy Andromeda (HELGA) VII: A SKIRT radiative transfer model and insights on dust heating
S. Viaene, M. Baes, A. Tamm +17
The radiation of stars heats dust grains in the diffuse interstellar medium and in star-forming regions in galaxies. Modelling this interaction provides information on dust in gala…
DustPedia - A Definitive Study of Cosmic Dust in the Local Universe
J. I. Davies, M. Baes, S. Bianchi +20
The European Space Agency has invested heavily in two cornerstones missions; Herschel and Planck. The legacy data from these missions provides us with an unprecedented opportunity…
Radiative transfer in disc galaxies V. The accuracy of the KB approximation
Dukhang Lee, Maarten Baes, Kwang-Il Seon +3
We investigate the accuracy of an approximate radiative transfer technique that was first proposed by Kylafis & Bahcall (hereafter the KB approximation) and has been popular in mod…
HERschel Observations of Edge-on Spirals (HEROES). III. Dust energy balance study of IC 2531
Aleksandr V. Mosenkov, Flor Allaert, Maarten Baes +11
We investigate the dust energy balance for the edge-on galaxy IC 2531, one of the seven galaxies in the HEROES sample. We perform a state-of-the-art radiative transfer modelling ba…
