PHANGS-JWST First Results: Destruction of the PAH molecules in HII regions probed by JWST and MUSE
Oleg V. Egorov, Kathryn Kreckel, Karin M. Sandstrom +30
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) play a critical role in the reprocessing of stellar radiation and in balancing the heating and cooling processes in the interstellar medium…
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: Spurring on Star Formation: JWST Reveals Localised Star Formation in a Spiral Arm Spur of NGC 628
Thomas G. Williams, Jiayi Sun, Ashley T. Barnes +34
We combine JWST observations with ALMA CO and VLT-MUSE H data to examine off-spiral arm star formation in the face-on, grand-design spiral galaxy NGC 628. We focus on the northe…
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…
Variations in the plane across galactic environments in PHANGS galaxies
I. Pessa, E. Schinnerer, A. Leroy +26
There exists some consensus that stellar mass surface density () and molecular gas mass surface density () are the main quantities responsible for locally setti…
