Fast, Collimated Outflow in the Western Nucleus of Arp 220

Loreto Barcos-Muñoz, Susanne Aalto, Todd A. Thompson +6

We present the first spatially and spectrally resolved image of the molecular outflow in the western nucleus of Arp\,220. The outflow, seen in HCN~(1--0) by ALMA, is compact and co…

A hidden molecular outflow in the LIRG Zw 049.057

N. Falstad, S. Aalto, J. G. Mangum +8

Feedback in the form of mass outflows driven by star formation or active galactic nuclei is a key component of galaxy evolution. The luminous infrared galaxy Zw 049.057 harbours a…

Investigating the evolution of the dual AGN system ESO~509-IG066

P. Kosec, M. Brightman, D. Stern +13

We analyze the evolution of the dual AGN in ESO 509-IG066, a galaxy pair located at z=0.034 whose nuclei are separated by 11 kpc. Previous observations with XMM-Newton on this dual…

A Widespread, Clumpy Starburst in the Isolated Ongoing Dwarf Galaxy Merger dm1647+21

G. C. Privon, S. Stierwalt, D. R. Patton +6

Interactions between pairs of isolated dwarf galaxies provide a critical window into low-mass hierarchical, gas-dominated galaxy assembly and the buildup of stellar mass in low-met…

ALMA [NII] 205 micron Imaging Spectroscopy of the Interacting Galaxy System BRI 1202-0725 at Redshift 4.7

Nanyao Lu, Yinghe Zhao, Tanio Diaz-Santos +9

We present the results from Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) imaging in the [NII] 205 micron fine-structure line (hereafter [NII]) and the underlying continuum o…

A 33 GHz Survey of Local Major Mergers: Estimating the Sizes of the Energetically Dominant Regions from High Resolution Measurements of the Radio Continuum

L. Barcos-Muñoz, A. K. Leroy, A. S. Evans +15

We present Very Large Array observations of the 33 GHz radio continuum emission from 22 local ultraluminous and luminous infrared (IR) galaxies (U/LIRGs). These observations have s…

Direct evidence of hierarchical assembly at low masses from isolated dwarf galaxy groups

Sabrina Stierwalt, Sandra E. Liss, Kelsey E. Johnson +5

The demographics of dwarf galaxy populations have long been in tension with predictions from the Cold Dark Matter (CDM) paradigm. If primordial density fluctuations were scale-free…

HI vs. H - Comparing the Kinematic Tracers in Modeling the Initial Conditions of the Mice

S. Alireza Mortazavi, Jennifer M. Lotz, Joshua E. Barnes +2

We explore the effect of using different kinematic tracers (HI and H) on reconstructing the encounter parameters of the Mice major galaxy merger (NGC 4676A/B). We observed the M…
