PHANGS-MUSE: the HII region luminosity function of local star-forming galaxies

Francesco Santoro, Kathryn Kreckel, Francesco Belfiore +30

We use an unprecedented sample of about 23,000 HII regions detected at an average physical resolution of 67pc in the PHANGS-MUSE sample to study the extragalactic HII region Ha lum…

A tale of two DIGs: The relative role of HII regions and low-mass hot evolved stars in powering the diffuse ionised gas (DIG) in PHANGS-MUSE galaxies

Francesco Belfiore, Francesco Santoro, Brent Groves +17

We use integral field spectroscopy from the PHANGS-MUSE survey, which resolves the ionised interstellar medium at pc resolution in 19 nearby spiral galaxies, to study th…

The Two-Dimensional Metallicity Distribution and Mixing Scales of Nearby Galaxies

Thomas G. Williams, Kathryn Kreckel, Francesco Belfiore +25

Understanding the spatial distribution of metals within galaxies allows us to study the processes of chemical enrichment and mixing in the interstellar medium (ISM). In this work,…

The PHANGS-MUSE survey -- Probing the chemo-dynamical evolution of disc galaxies

Eric Emsellem, Eva Schinnerer, Francesco Santoro +45

We present the PHANGS-MUSE survey, a programme using the MUSE IFS at the ESO VLT to map 19 massive nearby (D < 20 Mpc) star-forming disc galaxi…

PHANGS-ALMA: Arcsecond CO(2-1) Imaging of Nearby Star-Forming Galaxies

Adam K. Leroy, Eva Schinnerer, Annie Hughes +69

We present PHANGS-ALMA, the first survey to map CO J=2-1 line emission at ~1" ~ 100pc spatial resolution from a representative sample of 90 nearby (d<~20 Mpc) galaxies that lie on…

PHANGS-ALMA Data Processing and Pipeline

Adam K. Leroy, Annie Hughes, Daizhong Liu +65

We describe the processing of the PHANGS-ALMA survey and present the PHANGS-ALMA pipeline, a public software package that processes calibrated interferometric and total power data…
