Uncovering the multi-scale structure of dust distribution in nearby galaxies

E. Tanchon, M. Boquien, J. Chastenet +18

High-resolution JWST-MIRI images now allow us to resolve in great detail the multi-scale nature of the emission in nearby star-forming galaxies, from compact star-forming regions t…

The lifetime of 100,000 molecular clouds in the nearby Universe

Z. Bazzi, M. I. N. Kobayashi, D. Colombo +25

Multiple mechanisms are proposed for the formation of giant molecular clouds (GMCs), from gravitational free-fall caused by self-gravity to stellar feedback-driven gas compression.…

Quantifying the energetics of molecular superbubbles in PHANGS galaxies

E. J. Watkins, K. Kreckel, B. Groves +26

Star formation and stellar feedback are interlinked processes that redistribute energy and matter throughout galaxies. When young, massive stars form in spatially clustered environ…

Fraction of Stars in Clusters for the LEGUS Dwarf Galaxies

D. O. Cook, J. C. Lee, A. Adamo +20

We study the young star cluster populations in 23 dwarf and irregular galaxies observed by the HST Legacy ExtraGalactic Ultraviolet Survey (LEGUS), and examine relationships betwee…

Linking stellar populations to HII regions across nearby galaxies: I. Constraining pre-supernova feedback from young clusters in NGC1672

A. T. Barnes, R. Chandar, K. Kreckel +32

One of the fundamental factors regulating the evolution of galaxies is stellar feedback. However, we still do not have strong observational constraints on the relative importance o…

Search For Star Cluster Age Gradients Across Spiral Arms of Three LEGUS Disk Galaxies

F. Shabani, E. K. Grebel, A. Pasquali +20

One of the main theories for explaining the formation of spiral arms in galaxies is the stationary density wave theory. This theory predicts the existence of an age gradient across…
