Young star clusters in the extended UV disk of M83
M. Andersen, A. Zavagno, J. Koda +2
The process of star formation in a low-metallicity environment and whether it differs from star formation in the solar neighbourhood is an open topic. Recently, CO clumps were iden…

Cosmic Threads: Interlinking the Stellar Initial Mass Function from Star-Birth to Galaxies
Tereza Jerabkova, Donatella Romano, Pavel Kroupa +19
The stellar initial mass function (sIMF) describes the distribution of stellar masses formed in a single star formation event in a molecular cloud clump. It is fundamental to astro…

Compact and High Excitation Molecular Clumps in the Extended Ultraviolet Disk of M83
Jin Koda, Francoise Combes, Monica Rubio +9
The extended ultraviolet (XUV) disks of nearby galaxies show ongoing massive star formation, but their parental molecular clouds remain mostly undetected despite searches in CO(1-0…
