Molecular gas plays a critical role in regulating star formation and nuclear activity in galaxies. Sulphur bearing molecules, such as H2S, are sensitive to the physical and chemica…
FAUST XXVI. The dust opacity spectral indices of protostellar envelopes bridge the gap between interstellar medium and disks
Luca Cacciapuoti, L. Testi, A. J. Maury +36
The sub-millimetre dust opacity spectral index is a critical observable to constrain dust properties, such as the maximum grain size of an observed dust population. It has been wid…
Investigating the chemical link between HCO and CHOH within the CMZ of NGC 253

Formaldehyde (HCO) and methanol (CHOH) have served as traditional tracers of the star formation process for decades. Studies of the environments which produce these species…
Decoding the molecular torus of NGC 1068: Insights into its structure and kinematics from high-resolution ALMA observations
V. Gámez Rosas, P. van der Werf, J. F. Gallimore +12
We dissect the kinematics and morphology of the molecular gas within the near-nuclear region of NGC 1068 to understand the mechanisms in the central AGN that might be fueling it, a…
Complex Organic Molecules towards the central molecular zone of NGC 253
