PHANGS-JWST First Results: Destruction of the PAH molecules in HII regions probed by JWST and MUSE

Oleg V. Egorov, Kathryn Kreckel, Karin M. Sandstrom +30

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) play a critical role in the reprocessing of stellar radiation and in balancing the heating and cooling processes in the interstellar medium…

PHANGS-JWST First Results: A statistical view on bubble evolution in NGC628

Elizabeth J. Watkins, Ashley Barnes, Kiana F. Henny +49

The first JWST observations of nearby galaxies have unveiled a rich population of bubbles that trace the stellar feedback mechanisms responsible for their creation. Studying these…

A physically motivated `charge-exchange method' for measuring electron temperatures within HII regions

K. Kreckel, O. Egorov, F. Belfiore +9

Aims: Temperature uncertainties plague our understanding of abundance variations within the ISM. Using the PHANGS-MUSE large program, we develop and apply a new technique to model…

Linking stellar populations to HII regions across nearby galaxies: I. Constraining pre-supernova feedback from young clusters in NGC1672

A. T. Barnes, R. Chandar, K. Kreckel +32

One of the fundamental factors regulating the evolution of galaxies is stellar feedback. However, we still do not have strong observational constraints on the relative importance o…

Planetary Nebula Luminosity Function distances for 19 galaxies observed by PHANGS-MUSE

Fabian Scheuermann, Kathryn Kreckel, Gagandeep S. Anand +15

We provide new planetary nebula luminosity function (PNLF) distances to 19 nearby spiral galaxies that were observed with VLT/MUSE by the PHANGS collaboration. Emission line ratios…
