Molecular Gas Properties and CO-to-H2 Conversion Factors in the Central Kiloparsec of NGC 3351
Yu-Hsuan Teng, Karin M. Sandstrom, Jiayi Sun +16
The CO-to-H conversion factor ($α_\rm{CO}$) is critical to studying molecular gas and star formation in galaxies. The value of $α_\rm{CO}$ has been found to vary within and bet…
PHANGS-MUSE: the HII region luminosity function of local star-forming galaxies
Francesco Santoro, Kathryn Kreckel, Francesco Belfiore +30
We use an unprecedented sample of about 23,000 HII regions detected at an average physical resolution of 67pc in the PHANGS-MUSE sample to study the extragalactic HII region Ha lum…
A tale of two DIGs: The relative role of HII regions and low-mass hot evolved stars in powering the diffuse ionised gas (DIG) in PHANGS-MUSE galaxies
Francesco Belfiore, Francesco Santoro, Brent Groves +17
We use integral field spectroscopy from the PHANGS-MUSE survey, which resolves the ionised interstellar medium at pc resolution in 19 nearby spiral galaxies, to study th…
Comparing the pre-SNe feedback and environmental pressures for 6000 HII regions across 19 nearby spiral galaxies
A. T. Barnes, S. C. O. Glover, K. Kreckel +28
The feedback from young stars (i.e. pre-supernova) is thought to play a crucial role in molecular cloud destruction. In this paper, we assess the feedback mechanisms acting within…
The Two-Dimensional Metallicity Distribution and Mixing Scales of Nearby Galaxies
Thomas G. Williams, Kathryn Kreckel, Francesco Belfiore +25
Understanding the spatial distribution of metals within galaxies allows us to study the processes of chemical enrichment and mixing in the interstellar medium (ISM). In this work,…
The PHANGS-MUSE survey -- Probing the chemo-dynamical evolution of disc galaxies
Eric Emsellem, Eva Schinnerer, Francesco Santoro +45
We present the PHANGS-MUSE survey, a programme using the MUSE IFS at the ESO VLT to map 19 massive nearby (D < 20 Mpc) star-forming disc galaxi…
