A constant NH(1-0)-to-HCN(1-0) ratio on kiloparsec scales

M. J. Jiménez-Donaire, A. Usero, I. Bešlić +24

Nitrogen hydrides such as NH and NH are widely used by Galactic observers to trace the cold dense regions of the interstellar medium. In external galaxies, because of l…

Calibrating mid-infrared emission as a tracer of obscured star formation on HII-region scales in the era of JWST

Francesco Belfiore, Adam K. Leroy, Thomas G. Williams +25

Measurements of the star formation activity on cloud scales are fundamental to uncovering the physics of the molecular cloud, star formation, and stellar feedback cycle in galaxies…

Spectral Stacking of Radio-Interferometric Data

Lukas Neumann, Jakob S. den Brok, Frank Bigiel +11

Mapping molecular line emission beyond the bright low-J CO transitions is still challenging in extragalactic studies, even with the latest generation of (sub-)mm interferometers, s…

The impact of HII regions on Giant Molecular Cloud properties in nearby galaxies sampled by PHANGS ALMA and MUSE

Antoine Zakardjian, Jérôme Pety, Cinthya N. Herrera +36

We identify giant molecular clouds (GMCs) associated with HII regions for a sample of 19 nearby galaxies using catalogs of GMCs and H regions released by the PHANGS-ALMA and PHANGS…

The Physical Drivers and Observational Tracers of CO-to-H2 Conversion Factor Variations in Nearby Barred Galaxy Centers

Yu-Hsuan Teng, Karin M. Sandstrom, Jiayi Sun +24

The CO-to-H conversion factor ($α_\rm{CO}$) is central to measuring the amount and properties of molecular gas. It is known to vary with environmental conditions, and previous…

Star Formation Laws and Efficiencies across 80 Nearby Galaxies

Jiayi Sun, Adam K. Leroy, Eve C. Ostriker +37

We measure empirical relationships between the local star formation rate (SFR) and properties of the star-forming molecular gas on 1.5 kpc scales across 80 nearby galaxies. These r…
