A Multiwavelength Inventory for the Local Group L-band Survey I: Atlas and Radial Profiles of Local Group Galaxies
Cosima Eibensteiner, Adam K. Leroy, Jiayi Sun +21
Resolving atomic gas at pc physical resolution is currently feasible only for the very nearest galaxies. We combine 120 pc resolution HI data using the Karl G. Jansky…
Pressure-regulated feedback-modulated star formation as a subgrid model for galaxy formation simulations
Sarah M. R. Jeffreson, Eve C. Ostriker, Chang-Goo Kim +1
We present a new subgrid model for interstellar gas evolution in cosmological simulations of galaxy formation, based on the pressure-regulated, feedback-modulated (PRFM) theory of…
Learning the Universe with PRFM-vol: Introducing a new subgrid model for star formation in cosmological simulations
Jan D. Burger, Volker Springel, Eve C. Ostriker +7
We introduce PRFM-vol, a new subgrid model for star formation in cosmological simulations that aims to increase the physical realism of cosmological simulations by leveraging resul…
Cosmic Ray Feedback in Galactic Disks: Star Formation, Cosmic Ray Transport, and Multiphase Outflows in TIGRESS++ Simulations
Chang-Goo Kim, Lucia Armillotta, Eve C. Ostriker +5
We present new simulations of local star-forming disks that self-consistently evolve cosmic rays (CRs) and multiphase gas using TIGRESS++. To isolate the role of CRs, we conduct pa…
Interstellar Medium-Driven Orbital Transport -- I. Radial Heating and Migration
Shaunak Modak, Chris Hamilton, Eve C. Ostriker +1
Interstellar medium (ISM) structures gravitationally perturb stellar orbits in galactic disks, driving orbital heating and migration. However, studies of these transport processes…
Stellar associations powering HII regions $\unicode{x2013}$ II. Escape fraction of ionizing photons
Fabian Scheuermann, Kathryn Kreckel, Jia Wei Teh +27
Newly formed stars have a profound impact on their environment by depositing energy and momentum into the surrounding gas. However, only a fraction of the stellar feedback is retai…
Modeling the Mass Distribution and Gravitational Potential of Nearby Disk Galaxies: Implications for the ISM Dynamical Equilibrium
Vivek Vijayakumar, Jiayi Sun, Eve C. Ostriker +5
We characterize stellar, gas, and dark matter mass distributions for 17 nearby massive disk galaxies from the PHANGS sample. This allows us to compute the gravitational potential t…
Characterizing Density and Gravitational Potential Fluctuations of the Interstellar Medium
Shaunak Modak, Eve C. Ostriker, Chris Hamilton +1
Substructure in the interstellar medium (ISM) is crucial for establishing the correlation between star formation and feedback and has the capacity to significantly perturb stellar…
Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbon and CO(2-1) Emission at 50-150 pc Scales in 70 Nearby Galaxies
Ryan Chown, Adam K. Leroy, Karin Sandstrom +44
Combining Atacama Large Millimeter/sub-millimeter Array CO(2-1) mapping and JWST near- and mid-infrared imaging, we characterize the relationship between CO(2-1) and polycyclic aro…
PHANGS-MeerKAT and MHONGOOSE HI observations of nearby spiral galaxies: physical drivers of the molecular gas fraction,
Cosima Eibensteiner, Jiayi Sun, Frank Bigiel +36
The molecular-to-atomic gas ratio is crucial to the evolution of the interstellar medium in galaxies. We investigate the balance between the atomic () and molecular gas…
