Ubiquitous velocity fluctuations throughout the molecular interstellar medium

J. D. Henshaw, J. M. D. Kruijssen, S. N. Longmore +23

The density structure of the interstellar medium (ISM) determines where stars form and release energy, momentum, and heavy elements, driving galaxy evolution. Density variations ar…

LEGO II: A 3 mm molecular line study covering 100 pc of one of the most actively star-forming portions within the Milky Way Disc

A. T. Barnes, J. Kauffmann, F. Bigiel +20

The current generation of (sub)mm-telescopes has allowed molecular line emission to become a major tool for studying the physical, kinematic, and chemical properties of extragalact…

Simulations of the Milky Way's central molecular zone -- II. Star formation

Mattia C. Sormani, Robin G. Tress, Simon C. O. Glover +5

The Milky Way's central molecular zone (CMZ) has emerged in recent years as a unique laboratory for the study of star formation. Here we use the simulations presented in Tress et a…

Simulations of the Milky Way's central molecular zone -- I. Gas dynamics

Robin G. Tress, Mattia C. Sormani, Simon C. O. Glover +5

We use hydrodynamical simulations to study the Milky Way's central molecular zone (CMZ). The simulations include a non-equilibrium chemical network, the gas self-gravity, star form…

When Gas Dynamics Decouples from Galactic Rotation: Characterizing ISM Circulation in Disk Galaxies

Jose Utreras, Guillermo A. Blanc, Andres Escala +10

In galactic disks, galactic rotation sets the bulk motion of gas, and its energy and momentum can be transferred toward small scales. Additionally, in the interstellar medium, rand…
