Bird's-eye View of Molecular Gas across Stephan's Quintet Galaxy Group and Intra-group Medium
B. H. C. Emonts, P. N. Appleton, U. Lisenfeld +15
We present the large-scale distribution and kinematics of cold molecular gas across the compact galaxy group Stephan's Quintet, based on CO(2-1) observations performed with the Ata…
The State of the Molecular Gas in Post-Starburst Galaxies
K. Decker French, Adam Smercina, Kate Rowlands +7
The molecular gas in galaxies traces both the fuel for star formation and the processes that can enhance or suppress star formation. Observations of the molecular gas state can thu…
Increasing Gender Diversity and Inclusion in Scientific Committees and Related Activities at STScI
Gisella De Rosa, Cristina Oliveira, Camilla Pacifici +27
We present a new initiative by the Women in Astronomy Forum at Space Telescope Science Institute (STScI) to increase gender diversity and inclusion in STScI's scientific committees…
Herschel Spectroscopy of the Taffy Galaxies (UGC 12914/12915 = VV 254): Enhanced [C II] emission in the collisionally-formed bridge
B. W. Peterson, P. N. Appleton, T. Bitsakis +17
Using the PACS and SPIRE spectrometers on-board Herschel, we obtained observations of the Taffy galaxies (UGC 12914/12915) and bridge. The Taffy system is believed to be the result…
Early Spectra of the Gravitational Wave Source GW170817: Evolution of a Neutron Star Merger
B. J. Shappee, J. D. Simon, M. R. Drout +33
On 2017 August 17, Swope Supernova Survey 2017a (SSS17a) was discovered as the optical counterpart of the binary neutron star gravitational wave event GW170817. We report time-seri…
Powerful H2 Line Cooling in Stephan's Quintet II. Group-wide Gas and Shock Modeling of the Warm H2 and a Comparison with [CII]157.7um Emission and Kinematics
P. N. Appleton, P. Guillard, A. Togi +7
We map for the first time the two-dimensional H_2 excitation of warm intergalactic gas in Stephan's Quintet on group-wide (50 x 35 kpc^2) scales to quantify the temperature, mass a…
CO in Hickson Compact Group galaxies with enhanced warm \htwo\ emission: Evidence for galaxy evolution?
U. Lisenfeld, P. N. Appleton, M. E. Cluver +3
Galaxies in Hickson Compact Groups (HCGs) are believed to experience morphological transformations from blue, star-forming galaxies to red, early-type galaxies. Galaxies with a hig…
Herschel observations of Hickson compact groups of galaxies: Unveiling the properties of cold dust
T. Bitsakis, V. Charmandaris, P. N. Appleton +5
We present a Herschel far-IR and sub-mm study of a sample of 120 galaxies in 28 Hickson Compact Groups. Fitting their UV to sub-mm spectral energy distributions with the model of d…
