Testing dark matter models and modified gravity theories with spatially resolved HI observations
Federico Lelli, Antonino Marasco, Timothy A. Davis +8
Understanding the nature of dark matter (DM) is one of the most pressing questions of modern physics. The flat rotation curves of galaxies, especially the extended HI rotation curv…
Kennicutt-Schmidt relation of galaxies over 13 billion years in the COLIBRE hydrodynamical simulations
Claudia del P. Lagos, Joop Schaye, Matthieu Schaller +16
We investigate the correlation between star formation rate (SFR) surface density and gas surface density (known as the Kennicutt-Schmidt, KS, relation) at kiloparsec (kpc) scales a…
WISDOM Project - XXVII. Giant molecular clouds of the lenticular galaxy NGC 1387: similarities with spiral galaxy clouds
Fu-Heng Liang, Martin Bureau, Lijie Liu +10
Molecular gas is crucial to understanding star formation and galaxy evolution, but the giant molecular clouds (GMCs) of early-type galaxies (ETGs) have rarely been studied. Here, w…
Stellar-gas kinematic misalignments in EAGLE: enhanced SMBH growth in misaligned galaxies
Maximilian K. Baker, Timothy A. Davis, Freeke van de Voort +1
Stellar-gas kinematic misalignments are a transient phenomenon observed in of the local galaxy population. According to current models, misaligned gas is expected to los…
Stellar-gas kinematic misalignments in EAGLE: lifetimes and longevity of misaligned galaxies
Maximilian K. Baker, Timothy A. Davis, Freeke van de Voort +1
The dominant processes by which galaxies replenish their cold gas reservoirs remain disputed, especially in massive galaxies. Stellar-gas kinematic misalignments offer an opportuni…
WISDOM Project -- XXV. Improving the CO-dynamical supermassive black hole mass measurement in the galaxy NGC 1574 using high spatial resolution ALMA observations
Hengyue Zhang, Martin Bureau, Ilaria Ruffa +5
We present a molecular gas dynamical supermassive black hole (SMBH) mass measurement in the nearby barred lenticular galaxy NGC 1574, using Atacama Large Millimeter/sub-millimeter…
