When Feedback Fails: The Scaling and Saturation of Star Formation Efficiency

Michael Y. Grudić, Philip F. Hopkins, Claude-André Faucher-Giguère +3

We present a suite of 3D multi-physics MHD simulations following star formation in isolated turbulent molecular gas disks ranging from 5 to 500 parsecs in radius. These simulations…

The Cosmic Baryon Cycle and Galaxy Mass Assembly in the FIRE Simulations

Daniel Anglés-Alcázar, Claude-André Faucher-Giguère, Dušan Kereš +3

We use cosmological simulations from the FIRE (Feedback In Realistic Environments) project to study the baryon cycle and galaxy mass assembly for central galaxies in the halo mass…

Observational constraints on the formation and evolution of the Milky Way nuclear star cluster with Keck and Gemini

Tuan Do, Andrea Ghez, Mark Morris +7

Due to its proximity, the Milky Way nuclear star cluster provides us with a wealth of data not available in other galactic nuclei. In particular, with adaptive optics, we can obser…

Molecular Gas Along a Bright H-alpha Filament in 2A 0335+096 Revealed by ALMA

A. N. Vantyghem, B. R. McNamara, H. R. Russell +17

We present ALMA CO(1-0) and CO(3-2) observations of the brightest cluster galaxy (BCG) in the 2A 0335+096 galaxy cluster (z = 0.0346). The total molecular gas mass of (1.13+/-0.15)…

Physical properties of molecular clouds for the entire Milky Way disk

Marc-Antoine Miville-Deschênes, Norman Murray, Eve J. Lee

This study presents a catalog of 8107 molecular clouds that covers the entire Galactic plane and includes 98% of the CO emission observed within . The catalog w…

Observational Evidence of Dynamic Star Formation Rate in Milky Way Giant Molecular Clouds

Eve J. Lee, Marc-Antoine Miville-Deschenes, Norman Murray

Star formation on galactic scales is known to be a slow process, but whether it is slow on smaller scales is uncertain. We cross-correlate 5469 giant molecular clouds (GMCs) from a…
