The Arizona Molecular ISM Survey with the SMT: Variations in the CO(2-1)/CO(1-0) Line Ratio Across the Galaxy Population
Ryan P. Keenan, Daniel P. Marrone, Garrett K. Keating
The J=10 spectral line of carbon monoxide (CO(1-0)) is the canonical tracer of molecular gas. However, CO(2-1) is frequently used in its place, following the assumptio…
The Arizona Molecular ISM Survey with the SMT: Survey Overview and Public Data Release
Ryan P. Keenan, Daniel P. Marrone, Garrett K. Keating +11
The CO(1-0) line has been carefully calibrated as a tracer of molecular gas mass. However, recent studies often favor higher J transitions of the CO molecule which are brighter and…
