Does the HCN/CO ratio trace the star-forming fraction of gas? II. Variations in CO and HCN Emissivity
Ashley R. Bemis, Christine D. Wilson, Piyush Sharda +2
We model emissivities of the HCN and CO transitions using measured properties of clouds found in normal star forming galaxies and more extreme systems. These models are com…
Cloud-Scale Molecular Gas Properties of the Antennae Merger: A Comparative Study with PHANGS-ALMA Galaxies and NGC 3256
Nathan Brunetti, Christine D. Wilson, Hao He +8
We present observations of the central 9 kpc of the Antennae merger (NGC 4038/9) at 55 pc resolution in the CO 2-1 line obtained with the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Arr…
Physical Properties of Molecular Clouds in the Overlap Region of the Merging Antennae Galaxies
Grace Krahm, Molly K. Finn, Remy Indebetouw +3
As the closest major galaxy merger and home to thousands of super star clusters (SSCs), the Antennae Galaxies (NGC 4038 and NGC 4039) are an important location to study the molecul…
Unraveling the Mystery of the Low CO-to-H Conversion Factor in Starburst Galaxies: RADEX Modeling of the Antennae
Hao He, Christine D. Wilson, Jiayi Sun +3
CO emission has been widely used as a tracer of molecular gas mass. However, it is a long-standing issue to accurately constrain the CO-to-H conversion factor ($α_{\mathrm{CO}}…
