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…
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 0.1 pc View of Molecular Clouds Associated with High-Mass Protostellar Systems in the Small Magellanic Cloud: Are Low-Metallicity Clouds Filamentary or Not?
Kazuki Tokuda, Yuri Kunitoshi, Sarolta Zahorecz +13
Filamentary molecular clouds are an essential intermediate stage in the star formation process. To test whether these structures are universal throughout cosmic star formation hist…
Giant molecular clouds and their Type classification in M74: Toward understanding star formation and cloud evolution
F. Demachi, Y. Fukui, R. I. Yamada +10
We investigated the giant molecular clouds (GMCs) in M74 (NGC 628), using data obtained from the PHANGS project. We applied the GMC Types according to the activity of star formatio…
ACA CO(J=2-1) Mapping of the Nearest Spiral Galaxy M33. II. Exploring the Evolution of Giant Molecular Clouds
Ayu Konishi, Kazuyuki Muraoka, Kazuki Tokuda +12
The evolution of giant molecular clouds (GMCs), the main sites of high-mass star formation, is an essential process to unravel the galaxy evolution. Using a GMC catalogue of M33 fr…
