Resolved Dust Emission and CO Isotopologues in Giant Molecular Clouds of the Andromeda Galaxy
Chloe Bosomworth, Jan Forbrich, Charles J. Lada +1
Dust emission at submillimeter wavelengths can be used to reliably trace the basic properties of molecular clouds. Early results from a recent Submillimeter Array (SMA) survey of t…
A Disintegrating Rocky Planet with Prominent Comet-like Tails Around a Bright Star
Marc Hon, Saul Rappaport, Avi Shporer +21
We report the discovery of BD+054868Ab, a transiting exoplanet orbiting a bright () K-dwarf (TIC 466376085) with a period of 1.27 days. Observations from NASA's Tr…
Polarized Dust Emission in Arp220: Magnetic Fields in the Core of an Ultraluminous Infrared Galaxy
David L Clements, Qizhou Zhang, K. Pattle +3
Arp 220 is the prototypical Ultraluminous Infrared Galaxy (ULIRG), and one of the brightest objects in the extragalactic far-infrared sky. It is the result of a merger between two…
CO isotopologue-derived molecular gas conditions and CO-to-H conversion factors in M51
Jakob den Brok, María J. Jiménez-Donaire, Adam Leroy +24
Over the past decade, several millimeter interferometer programs have mapped the nearby star-forming galaxy M51 at a spatial resolution of pc. This study combines observ…
