JWST Observations of Starbursts: The motion of dust - PAH kinematics of M82 and NGC 253 with JWST/MIRI spectroscopy
Fergus R. Donnan, Karin Sandstrom, Alberto D. Bolatto +27
We present an analysis of dust kinematics in the local starburst galaxies M82 (NGC 3034) and NGC 253 using Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbon (PAH) features observed with JWST/MIRI sp…
JWST Observations of Starbursts: A Young Bubble in NGC 253's Central Starburst
Kaitlyn E. Sheriff, Elisabeth A. C. Mills, Xinyu Mai +31
We present a multi-wavelength analysis of a young bubble in the nuclear starburst of NGC 253 using new JWST MIRI-MRS observations together with archival ALMA (100, 350, 690 GHz) an…
JWST Observations of Starbursts: Molecular Hydrogen Excitation and Disequilibrium in M82
Sara E. Duval, J. D. T. Smith, Alberto D. Bolatto +24
Emission from the pure rotational transitions of H traces warm molecular gas, providing insight into its temperature distribution and local heating conditions. We have extended…
Multi-scale Gas Structure and Dynamics in an Extragalactic Central Molecular Zone
Liam M. Wang, Jiayi Sun, Yu-Hsuan Teng +4
The structures and dynamics of the interstellar medium are governed by a combination of self-gravity, external gravity, and various sources of ordered and random motions on differe…
Molecular gas and star formation in central rings across nearby galaxies
Damian R. Gleis, Sophia K. Stuber, Eva Schinnerer +20
Nearby galaxies exhibit a variety of structures, including central rings, similar to the MW Central Molecular Zone (CMZ). These rings are common in barred galaxies and can be gas-r…
