Surveying the Whirlpool at Arcseconds with NOEMA (SWAN). IV. Extent of active galactic nucleus feedback on the interstellar medium

Mallory D. Thorp, Antonio Usero, Frank Bigiel +19

Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) are intertwined with galaxy evolution, injecting energy into the interstellar medium (ISM) that could regulate star formation as a galaxy evolves. Howe…

Constraining the Sub-Galactic Relationship Between Star Formation and the Hot Interstellar Medium in NGC 4254

Erik B. Monson, Bret D. Lehmer, Amirnezam Amiri +17

We investigate the relationship between star formation and X-ray emission from the hot interstellar medium (ISM) on kpc scales in NGC 4254 (M99) by combining spatially resolv…
