ALMA Resolves Giant Molecular Clouds in a Tidal Dwarf Galaxy
M. Querejeta, F. Lelli, E. Schinnerer +12
Tidal dwarf galaxies (TDGs) are gravitationally bound condensations of gas and stars formed during galaxy interactions. Here we present multi-configuration ALMA observations of J10…
Dynamical Equilibrium in the Molecular ISM in 28 Nearby Star-Forming Galaxies
Jiayi Sun, Adam K. Leroy, Eve C. Ostriker +26
We compare the observed turbulent pressure in molecular gas, , to the required pressure for the interstellar gas to stay in equilibrium in the gravitational potent…
Rotation of molecular clouds in M~51
J. Braine, A. Hughes, E. Rosolowsky +4
The grand-design spiral galaxy M~51 was observed at 40pc resolution in CO(1--0) by the PAWS project. A large number of molecular clouds were identified and we search for velocity g…
The Gas-Star Formation Cycle in Nearby Star-Forming Galaxies I. Assessment of Multi-scale Variations
Eva Schinnerer, Annie Hughes, Adam Leroy +21
The processes regulating star formation in galaxies are thought to act across a hierarchy of spatial scales. To connect extragalactic star formation relations from global and kpc-s…
EMPIRE: The IRAM 30-m Dense Gas Survey of Nearby Galaxies
María J. Jiménez-Donaire, F. Bigiel, A. K. Leroy +14
We present EMPIRE, an IRAM 30-m large program that mapped mm dense gas tracers at kpc resolution across the whole star-forming disk of nine nearby, massive…
Cloud-Scale Molecular Gas Properties in 15 Nearby Galaxies
Jiayi Sun, Adam K. Leroy, Andreas Schruba +16
We measure the velocity dispersion, , and surface density, , of the molecular gas in nearby galaxies from CO spectral line cubes with spatial resolution - pc, matche…
