Ciro Pappalardo, George J. Bendo, Simone Bianchi +19
We present three independent catalogs of point-sources extracted from SPIRE images at 250, 350, and 500 micron as a part of the Herschel Virgo Cluster Survey (HeViCS). The source p…
The Herschel Exploitation of Local Galaxy Andromeda (HELGA): IV. Dust scaling relations at sub-kpc resolution
S. Viaene, J. Fritz, M. Baes +18
The imprints of dust-starlight interactions are visible in scaling relations between stellar characteristics, star formation parameters and dust properties. We aim to examine dust…
A resolved analysis of cold dust and gas in the nearby edge-on spiral NGC 891
T. M. Hughes, M. Baes, J. Fritz +18
We investigate the connection between dust and gas in the nearby edge-on spiral galaxy NGC 891. High resolution Herschel PACS and SPIRE 70, 100, 160, 250, 350, and 500 m images…
The Herschel Virgo Cluster Survey XVI: a cluster inventory
J. I. Davies, S. Bianchi, M. Baes +12
Herschel FIR observations are used to construct Virgo cluster galaxy luminosity functions and to show that the cluster lacks the very bright and the numerous faint sources detected…
The Herschel Virgo Cluster Survey XIV: transition-type dwarf galaxies in the Virgo cluster
Ilse De Looze, Maarten Baes, Alessandro Boselli +19
We use dust scaling relations to investigate the hypothesis that Virgo cluster transition-type dwarfs are infalling star-forming field galaxies, which is argued based on their opti…
The Herschel Exploitation of Local Galaxy Andromeda (HELGA). VI. The distribution and properties of molecular cloud associations in M31
Jason M. Kirk, Walter K. Gear, Jacopo Fritz +18
In this paper we present a catalogue of Giant Molecular Clouds (GMCs) in the Andromeda (M31) galaxy extracted from the Hershel Exploitation of Local Galaxy Andromeda (HELGA) datase…
HERschel Observations of Edge-on Spirals (HEROES). I: Far-infrared morphology and dust mass determination
J. Verstappen, J. Fritz, M. Baes +11
Context. Edge-on spiral galaxies with prominent dust lanes provide us with an excellent opportunity to study the distribution and properties of the dust within them. The HEROES pro…
Herschel Exploitation of Local Galaxy Andromeda (HELGA) III: The Star Formation Law in M31
George P. Ford, Walter K. Gear, Matthew W. L. Smith +17
We present a detailed study of how the Star Formation Rate (SFR) relates to the interstellar medium (ISM) of M31 at ~140pc scales. The SFR is calculated using the far-ultraviolet a…
