Dust-Embedded Star Formation: Bridging Magellanic Cloud Studies of Massive Young Stellar Objects to Nearby Spiral Galaxies

M. Jimena Rodríguez, Rémy Indebetouw, Janice C. Lee +13

We use JWST NIRCam and MIRI imaging at 2, 4, 10, and 21 um to study young, dusty compact sources in four nearby galaxies at distances of ~ 1-5Mpc (M33, NGC300, NGC7793, and NGC5068…

Revisiting ram pressure stripping in Wolf-Lundmark-Melotte: No evidence for stripped HI with LGLBS

Daniel R. Rybarczyk, Eric W. Koch, Fabian Caballero Vargas +12

We analyze HI 21-cm observations of the Local Group dwarf galaxy Wolf-Lundmark-Melotte (WLM) from the Local Group L-Band Survey to search for evidence of ram pressure stripping. Wh…

The 3D Structure and Kinematics of the Local Disk-Halo Interface: Intermediate-velocity Clouds are the Minority of High-altitude Clouds in the Solar Neighborhood

Theo J. O'Neill, Andrew K. Saydjari, Catherine Zucker +4

Studies of the Milky Way's disk-halo interface have historically identified inflowing and outflowing gas incompatible with disk rotation on the basis of radial velocity, leading to…

The Panchromatic Hubble Andromeda Southern Treasury (PHAST). II. The Spatially Resolved Recent Star Formation History in M31

Tobin M. Wainer, Benjamin F. Williams, Zhuo Chen +19

We use Hubble Space Telescope optical imaging from the Panchromatic Hubble Andromeda Southern Treasury (PHAST) to measure the spatially resolved recent star formation history (SFH)…

Multi-scale Gas Structure and Dynamics in an Extragalactic Central Molecular Zone

Liam M. Wang, Jiayi Sun, Yu-Hsuan Teng +4

The structures and dynamics of the interstellar medium are governed by a combination of self-gravity, external gravity, and various sources of ordered and random motions on differe…

The Radial and Vertical Structure of Molecular Gas in the Edge-On Galaxy NGC 4565

Grace Krahm, Adam K. Leroy, Jiayi Sun +11

We present high-resolution (0.94" 55 pc) ALMA CO(2-1) and 13CO(2-1) observations of the highly inclined (i~87.5 deg) galaxy NGC 4565 covering out to galactocentric radius…

The Structure of Molecular Gas in PHANGS-ALMA Galaxies: Cloud Spacing, Two-Point Correlation and Stacked Intensity Profiles

Hao He, Adam Leroy, Erik Rosolowsky +21

The sub-kpc scale gas structure encodes key information of giant molecular cloud (GMC) formation. Therefore, we aim for a quantitative description of molecular gas structure across…

Filamentary Hierarchies and Superbubbles II: Impact of superbubbles and galactic dynamics on filament formation and fragmentation

Rachel Pillsworth, Ralph E. Pudritz, Eric W. Koch +1

Large scale phenomena in spiral galaxies such as shear, supernovae, and magnetic fields all contribute to the formation and subsequent evolution of filamentary structure and star f…

Spatially-resolved interstellar dust properties in the face-on spiral galaxy M 99 as observed by NIKA2

L. Pantoni, F. Galliano, S. C. Madden +62

Large dust grains in thermal equilibrium dominate the far-infrared and contribute to the millimetre continuum of star-forming galaxies, but constraining their properties is difficu…

The Timescales of Embedded Star Formation as Observed in STARFORGE

Tobin M. Wainer, Julianne J. Dalcanton, Michael Y. Grudić +7

Star formation occurs within dusty molecular clouds that are then disrupted by stellar feedback. However, the timing and physical mechanisms that govern the transition from deeply…

Resolving Individual Stars in Nearby Large Galaxies with the Habitable Worlds Observatory

Adam Smercina, Tara Fetherolf, Eric W. Koch +3

The varied and dynamic evolutionary histories of galaxies give rise to the stunning diversity in their properties that we observe in the present-day universe. HST, and now JWST, ha…

Where do stars explode in the ISM? -- The distribution of dense gas around evolved massive stars in M33

Sumit K. Sarbadhicary, Jordan Wagner, Eric W. Koch +27

The effect of supernovae (SNe) on star-formation in the interstellar medium (ISM) depends sensitively on where SNe explode with respect to ISM clouds. Observationally, SN ISM envir…
