Far-infrared line emission from the outer Galaxy cluster Gy 3-7 with SOFIA/FIFI-LS: Physical conditions and UV fields
N. Le, A. Karska, M. Figueira +13
(abridged) Far-infrared (FIR) line emission provides key information about the gas cooling and heating due to shocks and UV radiation associated with the early stages of star forma…
The PDR fronts in M17-SW localized with FIFI-LS onboard SOFIA
Randolf Klein, Alexander Reedy, Christian Fischer +5
To understand star formation rates, studying feedback mechanisms that regulate star formation is necessary. The radiation emitted by nascent massive stars play a significant role i…
Infrared view of the multiphase ISM in NGC 253 I. Observations and fundamental parameters of the ionised gas
André Beck, Vianney Lebouteiller, Suzanne Madden +7
Context. Massive star-formation leads to enrichment with heavy elements of the interstellar medium. On the other hand, the abundance of heavy elements is a key parameter to study t…
SOFIA observations of far-IR fine-structure lines in galaxies to measure metallicity
Luigi Spinoglio, Juan Antonio Fernandez-Ontiveros, Matthew A. Malkan +8
We present new and archival SOFIA FIFI-LS far-IR spectroscopic observations of 25 local galaxies of either the [OIII]52um and/or the [NIII]57um lines. Including other 31 galaxies f…
A SOFIA Survey of [CII] in the galaxy M51 II. [CII] and CO kinematics across spiral arms
Jorge L. Pineda, Juergen Stutzki, Christof Buchbender +10
We present the first complete, velocity-resolved [CII] 158um image of the M51 grand-design spiral galaxy, observed with the upGREAT instrument on SOFIA. [CII] is an important trace…
The CO-dark molecular gas mass in 30 Doradus
Mélanie Chevance, Suzanne C. Madden, Christian Fischer +16
Determining the efficiency with which gas is converted into stars in galaxies requires an accurate determination of the total reservoir of molecular gas mass. However, despite bein…
The Close AGN Reference Survey (CARS). Discovery of a global [CII] 158 m line excess in AGN HE1353-1917
I. Smirnova-Pinchukova, B. Husemann, G. Busch +15
The [CII]158m line is one of the strongest far-infrared (FIR) lines and an important coolant in the interstellar medium of galaxies that is accessible out to high redshifts. The…
A SOFIA Survey of [CII] in the galaxy M51 I. [CII] as a tracer of Star Formation
Jorge L. Pineda, Christian Fischer, Maria Kapala +12
We present a [CII] 158um map of the entire M51 (including M51b) grand--design spiral galaxy observed with the FIFI-LS instrument on SOFIA. We compare the [CII] emission with the to…
Jet-related Excitation of the [CII] Emission in the Active Galaxy NGC 4258 with SOFIA
Philip Appleton, Tanio Diaz-Santos, Dario Fadda +7
We detect widespread [CII]157.7um emission from the inner 5 kpc of the active galaxy NGC 4258 with the SOFIA integral field spectrometer FIFI-LS. The emission is found associated w…
The Close AGN Reference Survey (CARS): SOFIA detects spatially-resolved [CII] emission in the luminous AGN HE0433-1028
G. Busch, B. Husemann, I. Smirnova-Pinchukova +18
We report spatially-resolved [CII] m observations of HE 0433-1028, which is the first detection of a nearby luminous AGN (redshift 0.0355) with FIFI-LS onboard the airborn…
