The HI/OH/Recombination line survey of the inner Milky Way (THOR): data release 2 and HI overview
Y. Wang, H. Beuther, M. R. Rugel +17
With the Very Large Array (VLA) in C-configuration, we observed a large portion of the first Galactic quadrant ( and $\lvert b \rvert \leq 1.25…
Strong excess Faraday rotation on the Inside of the Sagittarius spiral arm
R. Shanahan, S. J. Lemmer, J. M. Stil +12
We present first results for Faraday rotation of compact polarized sources (1 to 2 GHz continuum) in The HI/OH/Recombination line (THOR) survey of the inner Galaxy. In the Galactic…
The Cloud Factory I: Generating resolved filamentary molecular clouds from galactic-scale forces
Rowan J. Smith, Robin G. Treß, Mattia C. Sormani +6
We introduce a new suite of simulations, "The Cloud Factory", which self-consistently forms molecular cloud complexes at high enough resolution to resolve internal substructure (up…
The lifecycle of molecular clouds in nearby star-forming disc galaxies
Mélanie Chevance, J. M. Diederik Kruijssen, Alexander P. S. Hygate +29
It remains a major challenge to derive a theory of cloud-scale ( pc) star formation and feedback, describing how galaxies convert gas into stars as a function of the g…
The headlight cloud in NGC 628: An extreme giant molecular cloud in a typical galaxy disk
Cinthya N. Herrera, Jérôme Pety, Annie Hughes +25
Cloud-scale surveys of molecular gas reveal the link between molecular clouds properties and star formation (SF) across a range of galactic environments. Cloud populations in galax…
The Gas-Star Formation Cycle in Nearby Star-Forming Galaxies I. Assessment of Multi-scale Variations
Eva Schinnerer, Annie Hughes, Adam Leroy +21
The processes regulating star formation in galaxies are thought to act across a hierarchy of spatial scales. To connect extragalactic star formation relations from global and kpc-s…
Mapping metallicity variations across nearby galaxy disks
K. Kreckel, I. -T. Ho, G. A. Blanc +21
The distribution of metals within a galaxy traces the baryon cycle and the buildup of galactic disks, but the detailed gas phase metallicity distribution remains poorly sampled. We…
Simulations of the star-forming molecular gas in an interacting M51-like galaxy
Robin G. Tress, Rowan J. Smith, Mattia C. Sormani +4
We present here the first of a series of papers aimed at better understanding the evolution and properties of giant molecular clouds (GMCs) in a galactic context. We perform high r…
WARPFIELD-EMP: The Self-Consistent Prediction of Emission Lines from Evolving HII Regions in Dense Molecular Clouds
Eric W. Pellegrini, Daniel Rahner, Stefan Reissl +4
We present the {\sc warpfield} emission predictor, {\sc warpfield-emp}, which couples the 1D stellar feedback code {\sc warpfield} with the {\sc cloudy} \hii region/PDR code and th…
Shape and Spin of Minihaloes. II: The Effect of Streaming Velocities
Maik Druschke, Anna T. P. Schauer, Simon C. O. Glover +1
Models of the decoupling of baryons and photons during the recombination epoch predict the existence of a large-scale velocity offset between baryons and dark matter at later times…
WARPFIELD Population Synthesis: The physics of (extra-)Galactic star formation and feedback driven cloud structure and emission from sub-to-kpc scales
E. W. Pellegrini, S. Reissl, D. Rahner +5
We present a novel method to model galactic scale star formation and the resulting emission from star clusters and the multi-phase interstellar medium. We combine global parameters…
Relations Between Molecular Cloud Structure Sizes and Line Widths in the Large Magellanic Cloud
Tony Wong, Annie Hughes, Kazuki Tokuda +12
We present a comparative study of the size-line width relation for substructures within six molecular clouds in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) mapped with the Atacama Large Milli…
The Molecular Gas Reservoirs of Galaxies: A comparison of CO(1-0) and dust-based molecular gas masses
Melanie Kaasinen, Nick Z. Scoville, Fabian Walter +7
We test the use of long-wavelength dust continuum emission as a molecular gas tracer at high redshift, via a unique sample of 12, z~2 galaxies with observations of both the dust co…
Observational constraints on the survival of pristine stars
Mattis Magg, Ralf S. Klessen, Simon C. O. Glover +1
There is a longstanding discussion about whether low mass stars can form from pristine gas in the early Universe. A particular point of interest is whether we can find surviving pr…
On the Detection of Supermassive Primordial Stars. II. Blue Supergiants
Marco Surace, Erik Zackrisson, Daniel J. Whalen +4
Supermassive primordial stars in hot, atomically-cooling haloes at 15 - 20 may have given birth to the first quasars in the universe. Most simulations of these rapidly acc…
