Molecular Gas Structure and Star Formation Diversity in Stephan's Quintet Revealed by ACA CO(1-0) Mapping
Misaki Yamamoto, Fumiya Maeda, Kazuyuki Muraoka +10
We present CO(1-0) mapping across the entire system of Stephan's Quintet, a well-known compact galaxy group, observed by Atacama Compact Array (7\,m array + Total Power) of…
An AGN in the Antennae galaxies ?
Shinya Komugi, Toshiki Saito, Tomonari Michiyama +5
Time variability is a strong probe of energetic phenomena which occur at small spatial scales, like Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN). We use ALMA observations at 100 GHz executed over…
ALMA FACTS III. High-Resolution CO(2-1)/CO(1-0) Maps of Twelve Nearby Galaxies
Amanda M Lee, Jin Koda, Fumi Egusa +4
We present early results from a high-resolution analysis (100-200pc) of the CO(2-1)/CO(1-0) line ratio in twelve nearby galaxies. We use new ALMA CO(1-0) observations from th…
Cloud-Cloud Collisions Induce Filament-Mediated Super Star Cluster Formation in the Antennae Overlap Region: Evidence from ALMA and JWST
Tomonari Michiyama, Toshiki Saito, Kouichiro Nakanishi +5
The formation of super star clusters (SSCs) in galaxies remains a fundamental yet unresolved problem. Among the proposed mechanisms, cloud-cloud collisions (CCCs) have been suggest…
Spatially and Dynamically Extended Molecular Gas in Stephan's Quintet Revealed by ALMA CO(1-0) Total Power Mapping
Fumiya Maeda, Shinya Komugi, Kazuyuki Muraoka +15
We present ALMA Total Power CO(1-0) mapping of Stephan's Quintet (SQ), a prototypical compact galaxy group, with a uniform noise level at a spatial scale of ~25 kpc. These observat…
ALMA FACTS. II. Large Scale Variations in the 12CO(J=2-1) to 12CO(J=1-0) Line Ratio in Nearby Galaxies
Shinya Komugi, Tsuyoshi Sawada, Jin Koda +4
We present 12CO(J=1-0) mapping observations over ~1/2 of the optical disk of 12 nearby galaxies from the Fundamental CO 1-0 Transition Survey of nearby galaxies (FACTS), using the…
