High resolution ALMA observations of HS in LIRGS (Dense gas and shocks in outflows and CNDs)
M. T. Sato, S. Aalto, S. König +14
Molecular gas plays a critical role in regulating star formation and nuclear activity in galaxies. Sulphur bearing molecules, such as H2S, are sensitive to the physical and chemica…
Spatially-resolved spectro-photometric SED Modeling of NGC 253's Central Molecular Zone I. Studying the star formation in extragalactic giant molecular clouds
Pedro K. Humire, Subhrata Dey, Tommaso Ronconi +29
Studying the interstellar medium in nearby starbursts is essential for understanding the physical mechanisms driving these objects, thought to resemble young star-forming galaxies.…
Complex Organic Molecules towards the central molecular zone of NGC 253
M. Bouvier, S. Viti, J. G. Mangum +9
Interstellar complex organic molecules (iCOMs) may have a link to prebiotic species, key building blocks for life. In Galactic star-forming (SF) regions, spatial variations of iCOM…
Shock-induced HCNH+ abundance enhancement in the heart of the starburst galaxy NGC 253 unveiled by ALCHEMI
Y. Gong, C. Henkel, C. T. Bop +15
Understanding the chemistry of molecular clouds is pivotal to elucidate star formation and galaxy evolution. As one of the important molecular ions, HCNH+ plays an important role i…
First detection of a deuterated molecule in a starburst environment within NGC 253
J. Butterworth, S. MartÃn, V. M. Rivilla +7
Deuterium was primarily created during the Big Bang Nucleosynthesis (BBN). This fact, alongside its fractionation reactions resulting in enhanced abundances of deuterated molecules…
An ALCHEMI inspection of sulphur-bearing species towards the central molecular zone of NGC 253
M. Bouvier, S. Viti, E. Behrens +19
Sulphur-bearing species are detected in various environments within Galactic star-forming regions and are particularly abundant in the gas phase of outflows and shocks, and photo-d…
