SPICA spectroscopic cosmological surveys to unravel galaxy evolution

Luigi Spinoglio, Kalliopi Dasyra, Alberto Franceschini +3

The main energy-generating mechanisms in galaxies are black hole (BH) accretion and star formation (SF) and the interplay of these processes is driving the evolution of galaxies. M…

Revealing the cold dust in low-metallicity environments: I - Photometry analysis of the Dwarf Galaxy Survey with Herschel

A. Rémy-Ruyer, S. C. Madden, F. Galliano +22

We present new photometric data from our Herschel Key Programme, the Dwarf Galaxy Survey (DGS), dedicated to the observation of the gas and dust in 48 low-metallicity environments.…

Regional variations in the dense gas heating and cooling in M51 from Herschel far-infrared spectroscopy

T. J. Parkin, C. D. Wilson, M. R. P. Schirm +13

We present Herschel PACS and SPIRE spectroscopy of the most important far-infrared cooling lines in M51, [CII](158 μm), [NII](122 & 205 μm), [OI](63 and 145 μm) and [OIII](88 μm).…

Star Formation & Dust Heating in the FIR Bright Sources of M83

K. Foyle, G. Natale, C. D. Wilson +16

We investigate star formation and dust heating in the compact FIR bright sources detected in the Herschel maps of M83. We use the source extraction code GETSOURCES to detect and ex…

Herschel Exploitation of Local Galaxy Andromeda (HELGA) III: The Star Formation Law in M31

George P. Ford, Walter K. Gear, Matthew W. L. Smith +17

We present a detailed study of how the Star Formation Rate (SFR) relates to the interstellar medium (ISM) of M31 at ~140pc scales. The SFR is calculated using the far-ultraviolet a…

Evidence for CO shock excitation in NGC 6240 from Herschel SPIRE spectroscopy

R. Meijerink, L. E. Kristensen, A. Weiss +28

We present Herschel SPIRE FTS spectroscopy of the nearby luminous infrared galaxy NGC 6240. In total 20 lines are detected, including CO J=4-3 through J=13-12, 6 H2O rotational lin…
