Resolved Properties of Extragalactic Giant Molecular Clouds

Alberto D. Bolatto, Adam K. Leroy, Erik Rosolowsky +2

Giant molecular clouds (GMCs) are the major reservoirs of molecular gas in galaxies, and the starting point for star formation. As such, their properties play a key role in setting…

The Resolved Properties of Extragalactic Giant Molecular Clouds

Alberto D. Bolatto, Adam K. Leroy, Erik Rosolowsky +2

We use high spatial resolution observations of CO to systematically measure the resolved size-line width, luminosity-line width, luminosity-size, and the mass-luminosity relations…

The LBT Panoramic View on the Recent Star-Formation Activity in IC2574

A. Pasquali, A. Leroy, H. -W. Rix +13

We present deep imaging of the star-forming dwarf galaxy IC2574 in the M81 group taken with the Large Binocular Telescope in order to study in detail the recent star-formation hist…

The Low CO Content of the Extremely Metal Poor Galaxy I Zw 18

Adam Leroy, John Cannon, Fabian Walter +2

We present sensitive molecular line observations of the metal-poor blue compact dwarf I Zw 18 obtained with the IRAM Plateau de Bure interferometer. These data constrain the CO J=1…

The Spitzer Survey of the Small Magellanic Cloud: S3MC Imaging and Photometry in the Mid- and Far-Infrared Wavebands

Alberto D. Bolatto, Joshua D. Simon, Snezana Stanimirovic +12

We present the initial results from the Spitzer Survey of the Small Magellanic Cloud (S3MC), which imaged the star-forming body of the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) in all seven MIP…

Infrared Sources in the Small Magellanic Cloud: First Results

Joshua D. Simon, Alberto D. Bolatto, Snezana Stanimirovic +3

We have imaged the entire Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC), one of the two nearest star-forming dwarf galaxies, in all seven IRAC and MIPS bands. The low mass and low metallicity (1/6…
