Masses, Star-Formation Efficiencies, and Dynamical Evolution of 18,000 HII Regions
Debosmita Pathak, Adam K. Leroy, Ashley. T. Barnes +36
We present measurements of the masses associated with HII regions across 19 nearby star-forming galaxies by combining data from JWST, HST, MUSE, ALMA, VLA, and MeerKAT…
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons destruction in star-forming regions across 42 nearby galaxies
Oleg V. Egorov, Adam K. Leroy, Karin Sandstrom +30
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are widespread in the interstellar medium (ISM) of Solar metallicity galaxies, where they play a critical role in ISM heating, cooling, and…
Characterization of Two Cool Galaxy Outflow Candidates Using Mid-Infrared Emission from Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons
Jessica Sutter, Karin Sandstrom, Ryan Chown +22
We characterize two candidate cool galactic outflows in two relatively low mass, highly inclined Virgo cluster galaxies: NGC4424 and NGC4694. Previous analyses of observations usin…
Duration and properties of the embedded phase of star formation in 37 nearby galaxies from PHANGS-JWST
Lise Ramambason, Mélanie Chevance, Jaeyeon Kim +32
Light reprocessed by dust grains emitting in the infrared allows the study of the physics at play in dusty, embedded regions, where ultraviolet and optical wavelengths are attenuat…
Time-scales of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon and dust continuum emission from gas clouds compared to molecular gas cloud lifetimes in PHANGS-JWST galaxies
Jaeyeon Kim, Mélanie Chevance, Lise Ramambason +24
Recent JWST mid-infrared (mid-IR) images, tracing polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and dust continuum emission, provide detailed views of the interstellar medium (ISM) in ne…
Survivors and Zombies: The Quenching and Disruption of Satellites around Milky Way Analogs
Debosmita Pathak, Charlotte R. Christensen, Alyson M. Brooks +3
It is necessary to understand the full accretion history of the Milky Way in order to contextualize the properties of observed Milky Way satellite galaxies and the stellar halo. Th…
Relationships between PAHs, Small Dust Grains, H, and HI in Local Group Dwarf Galaxies NGC 6822 and WLM Using JWST, ALMA, and the VLA
Ryan Chown, Adam K. Leroy, Alberto D. Bolatto +27
We present 0.7-3.3 pc resolution mid-infrared (MIR) JWST images at 7.7 m (F770W) and 21 m (F2100W) covering the main star-forming regions of two of the closest star-forming l…
Linking stellar populations to HII regions across nearby galaxies. II. Infrared Reprocessed and UV Direct Radiation Pressure in HII Regions
Debosmita Pathak, Adam Leroy, Todd Thompson +27
Radiation pressure is a key mechanism by which stellar feedback disrupts molecular clouds and drives HII region expansion. This includes direct radiation pressure exerted by UV pho…
PAH Feature Ratios Around Stellar Clusters and Associations in 19 Nearby Galaxies
Daniel A. Dale, Gabrielle B. Graham, Ashley T. Barnes +27
We present a comparison of observed polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) feature ratios in 19 nearby galaxies with a grid of theoretical expectations for near- and mid-infrared du…
