ALMA Imaging of HCN, CS and dust in Arp 220 and NGC 6240
Nick Scoville, Kartik Sheth, Fabian Walter +19
We report ALMA Band 7 (350 GHz) imaging at 0.4 - 0.6arcsec resolution and Band 9 (696 GHz) at ~0.25arcsec resolution of the luminous IR galaxies Arp 220 and NGC 6240. The long wave…
High-Resolution Radio Continuum Measurements of the Nuclear Disks of Arp 220
Loreto Barcos-Muñoz, Adam K. Leroy, Aaron S. Evans +16
We present new Karl G. Jansky Very Large Array radio continuum images of the nuclei of Arp 220, the nearest ultra-luminous infrared galaxy. These images have both the angular resol…
Sub-Eddington Star-Forming Regions are Super-Eddington: Momentum Driven Outflows from Supersonic Turbulence
Todd A. Thompson, Mark R. Krumholz
We show that the turbulent gas in the star-forming regions of galaxies is unstable to wind formation via momentum deposition by radiation pressure or other momentum sources like su…
Dynamics of Dusty Radiation Pressure Driven Shells and Clouds: Fast Outflows from Galaxies, Star Clusters, Massive Stars, and AGN
Todd A. Thompson, Andrew C. Fabian, Eliot Quataert +1
It is typically assumed that radiation pressure driven winds are accelerated to an asymptotic velocity of V ~ v_esc, where v_esc is the escape velocity from the central source. We…
The PdBI Arcsecond Whirlpool Survey (PAWS): Multi-phase cold gas kinematic of M51
Dario Colombo, Sharon E. Meidt, Eva Schinnerer +9
The kinematic complexity and the favorable position of M51 on the sky make this galaxy an ideal target to test different theories of spiral arm dynamics. Taking advantage of the ne…
The PdBI Arcsecond Whirlpool Survey (PAWS): Environmental Dependence of Giant Molecular Cloud Properties in M51
Dario Colombo, Annie Hughes, Eva Schinnerer +9
Using data from the PdBI Arcsecond Whirlpool Survey (PAWS), we have generated the largest extragalactic Giant Molecular Cloud (GMC) catalog to date, containing 1,507 individual obj…
