The relationship between polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon emission and far-infrared dust emission from NGC 2403 and M83

A. G. Jones, G. J. Bendo, M. Baes +13

We examine the relation between polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) emission at 8 microns and far-infrared emission from hot dust grains at 24 microns and from large dust grains…

Spatially resolved physical conditions of molecular gas and potential star formation tracers in M83, revealed by the Herschel SPIRE FTS

Ronin Wu, Suzanne Madden, Frédéric Galliano +19

Since the launch of the Herschel Space Observatory, our understanding about the photo-dissociation regions (PDR) has taken a step forward. In the bandwidth of the Fourier Transform…

Quantifying the Heating Sources for Mid-infrared Dust Emissions in Galaxies: The Case of M 81

Nanyao Lu, G. J. Bendo, A. Boselli +12

With the newly available SPIRE images at 250 and 500 micron from Herschel Space Observatory, we study quantitative correlations over a sub-kpc scale among three distinct emission c…

The Herschel Virgo Cluster Survey. XVII. SPIRE point-source catalogs and number counts

Ciro Pappalardo, George J. Bendo, Simone Bianchi +19

We present three independent catalogs of point-sources extracted from SPIRE images at 250, 350, and 500 micron as a part of the Herschel Virgo Cluster Survey (HeViCS). The source p…

High-resolution, 3D radiative transfer modeling : I. The grand-design spiral galaxy M51

Ilse De Looze, Jacopo Fritz, Maarten Baes +20

Context: Dust reprocesses about half of the stellar radiation in galaxies. The thermal re-emission by dust of absorbed energy is considered driven merely by young stars and, conseq…

An extremely low gas-to-dust ratio in the dust-lane lenticular galaxy NGC 5485

Maarten Baes, Flor Allaert, Marc Sarzi +7

Evidence is mounting that a significant fraction of the early-type galaxy population contains substantial reservoirs of cold interstellar gas and dust. We investigate the gas and d…

The EAGLE project: Simulating the evolution and assembly of galaxies and their environments

Joop Schaye, Robert A. Crain, Richard G. Bower +19

We introduce the Virgo Consortium's EAGLE project, a suite of hydrodynamical simulations that follow the formation of galaxies and black holes in representative volumes. We discuss…

The Herschel exploitation of local galaxy Andromeda (HELGA) V: Strengthening the case for substantial interstellar grain growth

L. Mattsson, H. L. Gomez, A. C. Andersen +7

In this paper we consider the implications of the distributions of dust and metals in the disc of M31. We derive mean radial dust distributions using a dust map created from Hersch…

Discovery of a red quasar with recurrent activity

S. Nandi, R. Roy, D. J. Saikia +6

We report a new double-double radio quasar, DDRQ, J07464526 which exhibits two cycles of episodic activity. From radio continuum observations at 607 MHz using the GMRT and 1400…

The physical characteristics of the gas in the disk of Centaurus A using the Herschel Space Observatory

T. J. Parkin, C. D. Wilson, M. R. P. Schirm +12

We search for variations in the disk of Centaurus A of the emission from atomic fine structure lines using Herschel PACS and SPIRE spectroscopy. In particular we observe the [C II]…

The distribution of interstellar dust in CALIFA edge-on galaxies via oligochromatic radiative transfer fitting

Gert De Geyter, Maarten Baes, Peter Camps +5

We investigate the amount and spatial distribution of interstellar dust in edge-on spiral galaxies, using detailed radiative transfer modeling of a homogeneous sample of 12 galaxie…

The Herschel Fornax Cluster Survey II: FIR properties of optically-selected Fornax cluster galaxies

C. Fuller, J. I. Davies, R. Auld +13

The Fornax Cluster Survey (HeFoCS) is a deep, far-infrared (FIR) survey of the Fornax cluster. The survey is in 5 bands (100 - 500 m) and covers an area of…

The Herschel Exploitation of Local Galaxy Andromeda (HELGA): IV. Dust scaling relations at sub-kpc resolution

S. Viaene, J. Fritz, M. Baes +18

The imprints of dust-starlight interactions are visible in scaling relations between stellar characteristics, star formation parameters and dust properties. We aim to examine dust…
