Cool dust heating and temperature mixing in nearby star-forming galaxies

L. K. Hunt, B. T. Draine, S. Bianchi +20

Physical conditions of the interstellar medium in galaxies are closely linked to the ambient radiation field and the heating of dust grains. In order to characterize dust propertie…

Shock Excited Molecules in NGC 1266: ULIRG conditions at the center of a Bulge Dominated Galaxy

E. W. Pellegrini, J. D. Smith, M. G. Wolfire +28

We investigate the far infrared spectrum of NGC 1266, a S0 galaxy that contains a massive reservoir of highly excited molecular gas. Using the SPIRE-FTS, we detect the CO la…

The suppression of star formation by powerful active galactic nuclei

M. J. Page, M. Symeonidis, J. D. Vieira +75

The old, red stars which constitute the bulges of galaxies, and the massive black holes at their centres, are the relics of a period in cosmic history when galaxies formed stars at…

The Herschel PEP/HerMES Luminosity Function. I: Probing the Evolution of PACS selected Galaxies to z~4

C. Gruppioni, F. Pozzi, G. Rodighiero +100

We exploit the deep and extended far infrared data sets (at 70, 100 and 160 um) of the Herschel GTO PACS Evolutionary Probe (PEP) Survey, in combination with the HERschel Multi tie…

The CO-to-H2 Conversion Factor and Dust-to-Gas Ratio on Kiloparsec Scales in Nearby Galaxies

K. M. Sandstrom, A. K. Leroy, F. Walter +42

We present kiloparsec (kpc) spatial resolution maps of the CO-to-H2 conversion factor (alpha_co) and dust-to-gas ratio (DGR) in 26 nearby, star-forming galaxies. We have simultaneo…

HerMES: A Statistical Measurement of the Redshift Distribution of Herschel-SPIRE Sources Using the Cross-correlation Technique

K. Mitchell-Wynne, A. Cooray, Y. Gong +19

The wide-area imaging surveys with the {\it Herschel} Space Observatory at sub-mm wavelengths have now resulted in catalogs of order one hundred thousand dusty, star-burst galaxies…
