ISO measurements of [CII] line variations in galaxies
S. Malhotra, G. Helou, G. Stacey +11
We report measurements of the [CII] fine structure line at 157.714 micron in 30 normal star-forming galaxies with the Long Wavelength Spectrometer (LWS) on the Infrared Space Obser…
The Mid-Infrared Color of NGC 6946
G. Helou, S. Malhotra, C. A. Beichman +10
We analyze the new mid-infrared maps of NGC 6946 for variations in the color ratio of the 7-to-15 micron emission. Our preliminary findings are that this mid-infrared color is rema…
ISOCAM Observations of NGC 6946: Mid-IR Structure
S. Malhotra, G. Helou, D. van Buren +12
The nearby spiral galaxy NGC 6946 was observed with ISO-CAM in the mid-infrared, achieving 7 arcsec resolution and sub-MJy/steradian sensitivity. Images taken with CAM filters LW2…
Diffuse Ionized Gas in Spiral Galaxies: Probing Photon Leakage from HII Regions?
Annette M. N. Ferguson, Rosemary F. G. Wyse, J. S. Gallagher +1
As part of a large study to map the distribution of star formation across galactic disks, we have obtained deep Halpha images of the nearby Sculptor Group spirals NGC 247 and NGC 7…
