The Spitzer Infrared Nearby Galaxies Survey: A High-Resolution Spectroscopy Anthology
D. A. Dale, J. D. T. Smith, E. A. Schlawin +18
High resolution mid-infrared spectra are presented for 155 nuclear and extranuclear regions from the Spitzer Infrared Nearby Galaxies Survey (SINGS). The fluxes for nine atomic for…
Spectral Mapping Reconstruction of Extended Sources
J. D. T. Smith, L. Armus, D. A. Dale +6
Three dimensional spectroscopy of extended sources is typically performed with dedicated integral field spectrographs. We describe a method of reconstructing full spectral cubes, w…
The Calibration of Mid-Infrared Star Formation Rate Indicators
D. Calzetti, R. C. Kennicutt, C. W. Engelbracht +25
With the goal of investigating the degree to which the mid-infrared emission traces the star formation rate (SFR), we analyze Spitzer 8 um and 24 um data of star-forming regions in…
Dust Masses, PAH Abundances, and Starlight Intensities in the SINGS Galaxy Sample
B. T. Draine, D. A. Dale, G. Bendo +17
Physical dust models are presented for 65 galaxies in the SINGS survey that are strongly detected in the four IRAC bands and three MIPS bands. For each galaxy we estimate (1) the t…
Dust and Atomic Gas in Dwarf Irregular Galaxies of the M81 Group: The SINGS and THINGS view
F. Walter, J. Cannon, H. Roussel +22
[abridged] We present observations of the dust and atomic gas phase in seven dwarf irregular galaxies of the M81 group from the SINGS and THINGS surveys. The Spitzer observations p…
The Mid-Infrared Spectrum of Star-Forming Galaxies: Global Properties of PAH Emission
J. D. T. Smith, B. T. Draine, D. A. Dale +15
We present a sample of low-resolution 5-38um Spitzer IRS spectra of the inner few square kiloparsecs of 59 nearby galaxies spanning a large range of star formation properties. A ro…
An Ultraviolet-to-Radio Broadband Spectral Atlas of Nearby Galaxies
D. A. Dale, A. Gil de Paz, K. D. Gordon +28
The ultraviolet-to-radio continuum spectral energy distributions are presented for all 75 galaxies in the Spitzer Infrared Nearby Galaxies Survey (SINGS). A principal component ana…
The Effect of Star Formation on the Far-Infrared--Radio Correlation within Galaxies
E. J. Murphy, G. Helou, R. Braun +13
Using data obtained for twelve galaxies as part of the {\it Spitzer} Infrared Nearby Galaxies Survey (SINGS) and the Westerbork Synthesis Radio Telescope (WSRT)-SINGS radio continu…
Spitzer Observations Of The Supergiant Shell Region In IC 2574
John M. Cannon, Fabian Walter, George J. Bendo +15
We present spatially resolved Spitzer imaging of the supergiant shell region of the M81 group dwarf galaxy IC 2574 obtained as part of the Spitzer Infrared Nearby Galaxies Survey.…
Warm dust and aromatic bands as quantitative probes of star-formation activity
N. M. Forster Schreiber, H. Roussel, M. Sauvage +1
We combine samples of spiral galaxies and starburst systems observed with ISOCAM to investigate the reliability of mid-infrared (MIR) dust emission as a quantitative tracer of star…
Near-Infrared Integral Field Spectroscopy of Star-Forming Galaxies
Daniel A. Dale, Helene Roussel, Alessandra Contursi +9
The Palomar Integral Field Spectrograph was used to probe a variety of environments in nine nearby galaxies that span a range of morphological types, luminosities, metallicities, a…
SINGS: The SIRTF Nearby Galaxies Survey
R. C. Kennicutt, L. Armus, G. Bendo +20
The SIRTF Nearby Galaxy Survey is a comprehensive infrared imaging and spectroscopic survey of 75 nearby galaxies. Its primary goal is to characterize the infrared emission of gala…
The relationship between star formation rates and mid-infrared emission in galactic disks
H. Roussel, M. Sauvage, L. Vigroux +1
The Halpha and mid-infrared mean disk surface brightnesses are compared in a sample of nearby spirals observed by ISOCAM. This shows that, in spiral disks, dust emission at 7 and 1…
The impact of bars on the mid-infrared dust emission of spiral galaxies: global and circumnuclear properties
H. Roussel, M. Sauvage, L. Vigroux +6
We study the mid-infrared properties of a sample of 69 nearby spiral galaxies, selected to avoid Seyfert activity contributing a significant fraction of the central energetics, or…
An atlas of mid-infrared dust emission in spiral galaxies
H. Roussel, L. Vigroux, A. Bosma +7
We present maps of dust emission at 7 microns and 15 microns/7 microns intensity ratios of selected regions in 43 spiral galaxies observed with ISOCAM. This atlas is a complement t…
