Gas Kinematics on GMC scales in M51 with PAWS: cloud stabilization through dynamical pressure
Sharon E. Meidt, Eva Schinnerer, Santiago Garcia-Burillo +9
We use the high spatial and spectral resolution of the PAWS CO(1-0) survey of the inner 9 kpc of the iconic spiral galaxy M51 to examine the effect of gas streaming motions on the…
The PdBI Arcsecond Whirlpool Survey (PAWS). I. A Cloud-Scale/Multi-Wavelength View of the Interstellar Medium in a Grand-Design Spiral Galaxy
Eva Schinnerer, Sharon E. Meidt, Jerome Pety +10
The PdBI (Plateau de Bure Interferometer) Arcsecond Whirlpool Survey (PAWS) has mapped the molecular gas in the central ~9kpc of M51 in its 12CO(1-0) line emission at cloud-scale r…
Observational Evidence Against Long-Lived Spiral Arms in Galaxies
Kelly Foyle, Hans-Walter Rix, Clare Dobbs +2
We test whether the spiral patterns apparent in many large disk galaxies should be thought of as dynamical features that are stationary in a co-rotating frame for > t_{dyn}, as imp…
Slowly Breaking Waves: The Longevity of Tidally Induced Spiral Structure
Curtis Struck, Clare L. Dobbs, Jeong-Sun Hwang
We have discovered long-lived waves in two sets of numerical models of fast (marginally bound or unbound) flyby galaxy collisions, carried out independently with two different code…
