Evidence for CO shock excitation in NGC 6240 from Herschel SPIRE spectroscopy

R. Meijerink, L. E. Kristensen, A. Weiss +28

We present Herschel SPIRE FTS spectroscopy of the nearby luminous infrared galaxy NGC 6240. In total 20 lines are detected, including CO J=4-3 through J=13-12, 6 H2O rotational lin…

The molecular gas in Luminous Infrared Galaxies: a new emergent picture

Padelis P. Papadopoulos, Zhi-Yu Zhang, Axel Weiss +5

Results from a large, multi-J CO, {13}CO, and HCN line survey of Luminous Infrared Galaxies (L_{IR}>=10^{10} L_{\odot}) in the local Universe (z<=0.1), complemented by CO J=4--3 up…

The GALEX view of the Herschel Reference Survey - Ultraviolet structural properties of nearby galaxies

L. Cortese, S. Boissier, A. Boselli +7

We present GALEX far-ultraviolet (FUV) and near-ultraviolet (NUV) as well as SDSS g, r, i photometry and structural parameters for the Herschel Reference Survey, a magnitude-, volu…

Herschel-SPIRE Imaging Spectroscopy of Molecular Gas in M82

J. Kamenetzky, J. Glenn, N. Rangwala +14

We present new Herschel-SPIRE imaging spectroscopy (194-671 microns) of the bright starburst galaxy M82. Covering the CO ladder from J=4-3 to J=13-12, spectra were obtained at mult…

The molecular gas in Luminous Infrared Galaxies II: extreme physical conditions, and their effects on the X_{co} factor

Padelis P. Papadopoulos, Paul van der Werf, E Xilouris +2

In this work we conclude the analysis of our CO line survey of Luminous Infrared Galaxies (LIRGs: L_{IR}>=10^{11}L_{sol}) in the local Universe (Paper\,I), by focusing on the influ…

The Herschel Multi-tiered Extragalactic Survey: HerMES

HerMES Collaboration, S. J. Oliver, J. Bock +102

The Herschel Multi-tiered Extragalactic Survey, HerMES, is a legacy program designed to map a set of nested fields totalling ~380 deg^2. Fields range in size from 0.01 to ~20 deg^2…
