Star Cluster Populations in 38 Spiral Galaxies: Evidence for Near-Universal Mass and Age Distributions from PHANGS

Rupali Chandar, Matthew R. Floyd, David A. Thilker +23

We present the largest study to date of star cluster mass and age distributions in nearby galaxies. The analysis is based on a uniformly selected catalog of over 15,000 (36,000) hu…

Quantifying the decline in CO(2-1) intensity around PHANGS-HST star clusters: Constraints on molecular gas dispersal, stellar feedback, and cluster formation efficiency

Hao He, Adam K. Leroy, Erik Rosolowsky +37

We combine the largest survey of star clusters in nearby galaxies to-date, PHANGS-HST, with maps of molecular gas maps from PHANGS-ALMA to constrain the efficiency of cluster forma…

Nowhere Left to Hide: Uncovering All of the Massive Young Embedded Star Clusters in the Antennae with JWST

Rupali Chandar, Miranda Caputo, Paul Goudfrooij +15

The Antennae galaxies merger produces the brightest infrared emission of any galaxy within ~20 Mpc, mostly from intense star formation taking place in supergiant molecular cloud co…

PAH Marks the Spot: Digging for Buried Clusters in Nearby Star-forming Galaxies

Gabrielle B. Graham, Daniel A. Dale, Chase L. Smith +39

The joint capabilities of the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) and JWST allow for an unparalleled look at the early lives of star clusters at near- and mid-infrared wavelengths. We pre…

Localized Deviations from the CO-PAH Relation in PHANGS-JWST Galaxies: Faint PAH Emission or Elevated CO Emissivity?

Jaeyeon Kim, Adam K. Leroy, Karin Sandstrom +25

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) emission is widely used to trace the distribution of molecular gas in the interstellar medium, exhibiting a tight correlation with CO(2-1) emi…

The PHANGS-MUSE/HST-Halpha Nebulae Catalogue

A. T. Barnes, R. Chandar, K. Kreckel +38

We present the PHANGS-MUSE/HST-Halpha nebulae catalogue, comprising 5177 spatially resolved nebulae across 19 nearby star-forming galaxies (< 20 Mpc), based on high-resolution Halp…
