WISDOM Project -- XVI. The link between circumnuclear molecular gas reservoirs and active galactic nucleus fuelling
Jacob S. Elford, Timothy A. Davis, Ilaria Ruffa +8
We use high-resolution data from the millimetre-Wave Interferometric Survey of Dark Object Masses (WISDOM) project to investigate the connection between circumnuclear gas reservoir…
Starburst-induced gas-stars kinematic misalignment
Elia Cenci, Robert Feldmann, Jindra Gensior +4
A kinematic misalignment of the stellar and gas components is a phenomenon observed in a significant fraction of galaxies. However, the underlying physical mechanisms are not well…
The WISDOM of power spectra: how the galactic gravitational potential impacts a galaxy's central gas reservoir in simulations and observations
Jindra Gensior, Timothy A. Davis, Martin Bureau +4
Observations indicate that the central gas discs are smoother in early-type galaxies than their late-type counterparts, while recent simulations predict that the dynamical suppress…
HI discs of L galaxies as probes of the baryonic physics of galaxy evolution
Jindra Gensior, Robert Feldmann, Marta Reina-Campos +7
Understanding what shapes the cold gas component of galaxies, which both provides the fuel for star formation and is strongly affected by the subsequent stellar feedback, is a cruc…
Starbursts driven by central gas compaction
Elia Cenci, Robert Feldmann, Jindra Gensior +3
Starburst (SB) galaxies are a rare population of galaxies with star formation rates (SFRs) greatly exceeding those of the majority of star-forming galaxies with similar stellar mas…
WISDOM Project -- XVII. Beam-by-beam Properties of the Molecular Gas in Early-type Galaxies
Thomas G. Williams, Martin Bureau, Timothy A. Davis +9
We present a study of the molecular gas of seven early-type galaxies with high angular resolution data obtained as part of the mm-Wave Interferometric Survey of Dark Object Masses…
A fundamental plane of black hole accretion at millimetre wavelengths
Ilaria Ruffa, Timothy A. Davis, Jacob S. Elford +11
We report the discovery of the ``mm fundamental plane of black-hole accretion'', which is a tight correlation between the nuclear 1 mm luminosity (), the intrinsic $…
WISDOM Project -- XV. Giant Molecular Clouds in the Central Region of the Barred Spiral Galaxy NGC 5806
Woorak Choi, Lijie Liu, Martin Bureau +7
We present high spatial resolution ( pc) Atacama Large Millimeter/sub-millimeter Array CO(2-1) observations of the central region of the nearby barred spiral gala…
Star Formation Laws and Efficiencies across 80 Nearby Galaxies
Jiayi Sun, Adam K. Leroy, Eve C. Ostriker +37
We measure empirical relationships between the local star formation rate (SFR) and properties of the star-forming molecular gas on 1.5 kpc scales across 80 nearby galaxies. These r…
