Spatially-resolved dust maps from Balmer decrements in galaxies at z~1.4

Erica June Nelson, Pieter G. van Dokkum, Ivelina G. Momcheva +6

We derive average radial gradients in the dust attenuation towards HII regions in 609 galaxies at z~1.4, using measurements of the Balmer decrement out to r~3kpc. The Balmer decrem…

The far-infrared emitting region in local galaxies and QSOs: Size and scaling relations

D. Lutz, S. Berta, A. Contursi +9

We use Herschel 70 to 160um images to study the size of the far-infrared emitting region in about 400 local galaxies and quasar (QSO) hosts. The sample includes normal `main-sequen…

The angular momentum distribution and baryon content of star forming galaxies at z~1-3

A. Burkert, N. M. Förster Schreiber, R. Genzel +25

We analyze the angular momenta of massive star forming galaxies (SFGs) at the peak of the cosmic star formation epoch (z~0.8-2.6). Our sample of ~360 log(M*/Msun) ~ 9.3-11.8 SFGs i…

High Resolution Imaging of PHIBSS z~2 Main Sequence Galaxies in CO J=1-0

A. D. Bolatto, S. R. Warren, A. K. Leroy +14

We present Karl G. Jansky Very Large Array observations of the CO J=1-0 transition in a sample of four main sequence galaxies. These galaxies are in the blue sequence of s…

Forming Compact Massive Galaxies

Pieter G. van Dokkum, Erica June Nelson, Marijn Franx +13

In this paper we study a key phase in the formation of massive galaxies: the transition of star forming galaxies into massive (M_stars~10^11 Msun), compact (r_e~1 kpc) quiescent ga…
