Multi-Scale Stellar Associations across the Star Formation Hierarchy in PHANGS-HST Nearby Galaxies: Methodology and Properties
Kirsten L. Larson, Janice C. Lee, David A. Thilker +18
We develop a method to identify and determine the physical properties of stellar associations using Hubble Space Telescope (HST) NUV-U-B-V-I imaging of nearby galaxies from the PHA…
PHANGS-JWST First Results: Stellar Feedback-Driven Excitation and Dissociation of Molecular Gas in the Starburst Ring of NGC 1365?
Daizhong Liu, Eva Schinnerer, Yixian Cao +36
We compare embedded young massive star clusters (YMCs) to (sub-)millimeter line observations tracing the excitation and dissociation of molecular gas in the starburst ring of NGC 1…
The PHANGS-JWST Treasury Survey: Star Formation, Feedback, and Dust Physics at High Angular resolution in Nearby GalaxieS
Janice C. Lee, Karin M. Sandstrom, Adam K. Leroy +74
The PHANGS collaboration has been building a reference dataset for the multi-scale, multi-phase study of star formation and the interstellar medium in nearby galaxies. With the suc…
PHANGS-JWST First Results: A statistical view on bubble evolution in NGC628
Elizabeth J. Watkins, Ashley Barnes, Kiana F. Henny +49
The first JWST observations of nearby galaxies have unveiled a rich population of bubbles that trace the stellar feedback mechanisms responsible for their creation. Studying these…
PHANGS-JWST First Results: The Influence of Stellar Clusters on PAHs in Nearby Galaxies
Daniel A. Dale, Médéric Boquien, Ashley T. Barnes +28
We present a comparison of theoretical predictions of dust continuum and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) emission with new JWST observations in three nearby galaxies: NGC 628…
PHANGS-JWST First Results: Dust embedded star clusters in NGC 7496 selected via 3.3 m PAH emission
Jimena Rodriguez, Janice Lee, Bradley Whitmore +38
The earliest stages of star formation occur enshrouded in dust and are not observable in the optical. Here we leverage the extraordinary new high-resolution infrared imaging from J…
