The ALMaQUEST Survey: II. What drives central starbursts at z~0?

Sara L. Ellison, Mallory D. Thorp, Hsi-An Pan +5

Starburst galaxies have elevated star formation rates (SFRs) for their stellar mass. In Ellison et al. (2018) we used integral field unit (IFU) maps of star formation rate surface…

The ALMaQUEST Survey: III. Scatter in the resolved star forming main sequence is primarily due to variations in star formation efficiency

Sara L. Ellison, Mallory D. Thorp, Lihwai Lin +6

Using a sample of 11,478 spaxels in 34 galaxies with molecular gas, star formation and stellar maps taken from the ALMA-MaNGA QUEnching and STar formation (ALMaQUEST) survey, we in…

Are galactic star formation and quenching governed by local, global or environmental phenomena?

Asa F. L. Bluck, Roberto Maiolino, Sebastian Sanchez +5

We present an analysis of star formation and quenching in the SDSS-IV MaNGA-DR15, utilising over 5 million spaxels from 3500 local galaxies. We estimate star formation rate s…

Deep learning predictions of galaxy merger stage and the importance of observational realism

Connor Bottrell, Maan H. Hani, Hossen Teimoorinia +7

Machine learning is becoming a popular tool to quantify galaxy morphologies and identify mergers. However, this technique relies on using an appropriate set of training data to be…

The ALMaQUEST Survey: The molecular gas main sequence and the origin of the star forming main sequence

Lihwai Lin, Hsi-An Pan, Sara L. Ellison +9

The origin of the star forming main sequence ( i.e., the relation between star formation rate and stellar mass, globally or on kpc-scales; hereafter SFMS) remains a hotly debated t…
