DIGging into HII regions: the role of ionizing photon leakage and spectral hardening in coupling HII regions and diffuse ionized gas
Dalya Baron, Kathryn Kreckel, Gwen C. Rudie +15
The optical emission-line ratios of star-forming galaxies are broadly understood in the framework of photoionization, yet some systematic trends remain unexplained. Using 50--100 p…
Star Cluster Populations in 38 Spiral Galaxies: Evidence for Near-Universal Mass and Age Distributions from PHANGS
Rupali Chandar, Matthew R. Floyd, David A. Thilker +23
We present the largest study to date of star cluster mass and age distributions in nearby galaxies. The analysis is based on a uniformly selected catalog of over 15,000 (36,000) hu…
Quantifying the decline in CO(2-1) intensity around PHANGS-HST star clusters: Constraints on molecular gas dispersal, stellar feedback, and cluster formation efficiency
Hao He, Adam K. Leroy, Erik Rosolowsky +37
We combine the largest survey of star clusters in nearby galaxies to-date, PHANGS-HST, with maps of molecular gas maps from PHANGS-ALMA to constrain the efficiency of cluster forma…
From gas to stars along the spiral wave: CO, HCN, and star formation variations across the spiral arms in NGC 4321 and M51
Minou Greve, Lukas Neumann, Mallory Thorp +17
Molecular clouds form stars from the interstellar medium via gravitational collapse, following a sequence from low-density gas to high-density cores and eventually the formation of…
Uncovering the multi-scale structure of dust distribution in nearby galaxies
E. Tanchon, M. Boquien, J. Chastenet +18
High-resolution JWST-MIRI images now allow us to resolve in great detail the multi-scale nature of the emission in nearby star-forming galaxies, from compact star-forming regions t…
The PHANGS-Hα survey. Ground-based narrow-band imaging of nearby star-forming galaxies
Alessandro Razza, Guillermo A. Blanc, Brent Groves +36
We present PHANGS-Hα, a narrow-band imaging survey that maps Hα emission over a sample of 65 nearby massive star-forming galaxies. The data were obtained using the MPG-ESO 2.2-mete…
Surveying the Whirlpool at Arcseconds with NOEMA (SWAN). IV. Extent of active galactic nucleus feedback on the interstellar medium
Mallory D. Thorp, Antonio Usero, Frank Bigiel +19
Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) are intertwined with galaxy evolution, injecting energy into the interstellar medium (ISM) that could regulate star formation as a galaxy evolves. Howe…
The Structure of Molecular Gas in PHANGS-ALMA Galaxies: Cloud Spacing, Two-Point Correlation and Stacked Intensity Profiles
Hao He, Adam Leroy, Erik Rosolowsky +21
The sub-kpc scale gas structure encodes key information of giant molecular cloud (GMC) formation. Therefore, we aim for a quantitative description of molecular gas structure across…
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…
PAH Marks the Spot: Digging for Buried Clusters in Nearby Star-forming Galaxies
Gabrielle B. Graham, Daniel A. Dale, Chase L. Smith +39
The joint capabilities of the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) and JWST allow for an unparalleled look at the early lives of star clusters at near- and mid-infrared wavelengths. We pre…
Localized Deviations from the CO-PAH Relation in PHANGS-JWST Galaxies: Faint PAH Emission or Elevated CO Emissivity?
Jaeyeon Kim, Adam K. Leroy, Karin Sandstrom +25
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) emission is widely used to trace the distribution of molecular gas in the interstellar medium, exhibiting a tight correlation with CO(2-1) emi…
PHANGS-JWST: the largest extragalactic molecular cloud catalog traced by polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon emission
Z. Bazzi, D. Colombo, F. Bigiel +25
High-resolution JWST images of nearby spiral galaxies reveal polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) emission structures that trace molecular gas, including CO-dark regions. We ident…
The PHANGS-MUSE/HST-Halpha Nebulae Catalogue
A. T. Barnes, R. Chandar, K. Kreckel +38
We present the PHANGS-MUSE/HST-Halpha nebulae catalogue, comprising 5177 spatially resolved nebulae across 19 nearby star-forming galaxies (< 20 Mpc), based on high-resolution Halp…
H Morphologies of Star Clusters in 16 LEGUS Galaxies: Constraints on HII region evolution timescales
Stephen Hannon, Janice C. Lee, Bradley C. Whitmore +14
The analysis of star cluster ages in tandem with the morphology of their HII regions can provide insight into the processes that clear a cluster's natal gas, as well as the accurac…
