3D Radiative Transfer Modelling and Virial Analysis of Starless Cores in the B10 Region of the Taurus Molecular Cloud

Samantha Scibelli, Yancy Shirley, Anika Schmiedeke +4

Low-mass stars like our Sun begin their evolution within cold (10 K) and dense ( cm) cores of gas and dust. The physical structure of starless cores is best probe…

Improving Star Cluster Age Estimates in PHANGS-HST Galaxies and the Impact on Cluster Demographics in NGC 628

Bradley C. Whitmore, Rupali Chandar, Janice C. Lee +29

A long-standing problem when deriving the physical properties of stellar populations is the degeneracy between age, reddening, and metallicity. When a single metallicity is used fo…

Multi-Scale Stellar Associations across the Star Formation Hierarchy in PHANGS-HST Nearby Galaxies: Methodology and Properties

Kirsten L. Larson, Janice C. Lee, David A. Thilker +18

We develop a method to identify and determine the physical properties of stellar associations using Hubble Space Telescope (HST) NUV-U-B-V-I imaging of nearby galaxies from the PHA…

PHANGS: Constraining Star Formation Timescales Using the Spatial Correlations of Star Clusters and Giant Molecular Clouds

Jordan A. Turner, Daniel A. Dale, James Lilly +22

In the hierarchical view of star formation, giant molecular gas clouds (GMCs) undergo fragmentation to form small-scale structures made up of stars and star clusters. Here we study…

The PHANGS-HST Survey: Physics at High Angular resolution in Nearby GalaxieS with the Hubble Space Telescope

Janice C. Lee, Bradley C. Whitmore, David A. Thilker +51

The PHANGS program is building the first dataset to enable the multi-phase, multi-scale study of star formation across the nearby spiral galaxy population. This effort is enabled b…
