Shock Excited Molecules in NGC 1266: ULIRG conditions at the center of a Bulge Dominated Galaxy
E. W. Pellegrini, J. D. Smith, M. G. Wolfire +28
We investigate the far infrared spectrum of NGC 1266, a S0 galaxy that contains a massive reservoir of highly excited molecular gas. Using the SPIRE-FTS, we detect the CO la…
Investigating the presence of 500 um submillimeter excess emission in local star forming galaxies
Allison Kirkpatrick, Daniela Calzetti, Maud Galametz +10
Submillimeter excess emission has been reported at 500 microns in a handful of local galaxies, and previous studies suggest that it could be correlated with metal abundance. We inv…
Star Formation On Sub-kpc Scale Triggered By Non-linear Processes In Nearby Spiral Galaxies
Rieko Momose, Jin Koda, Robert C. Kennicutt +8
We report a super-linear correlation for the star formation law based on new CO(=1-0) data from the CARMA and NOBEYAMA Nearby-galaxies (CANON) CO survey. The sample includes 10…
Resolved Giant Molecular Clouds in Nearby Spiral Galaxies: Insights from the CANON CO (1-0) Survey
Jennifer Donovan Meyer, Jin Koda, Rieko Momose +9
We resolve 182 individual giant molecular clouds (GMCs) larger than 2.5 10 \Msun in the inner disks of five large nearby spiral galaxies (NGC 2403, NGC 3031, NGC 473…
Evolution of Giant Molecular Clouds in Nearby Galaxies
Jin Koda
Studies of GMC evolution in galactic disks were limited to local, predominantly atom-rich small galaxies in the past, but have now been expanded to typical spiral galaxies with a r…
Towards understanding the relation between the gas and the attenuation in galaxies at kpc scales
M. Boquien, A. Boselli, V. Buat +13
[abridged] Aims. The aim of the present paper is to provide new and more detailed relations at the kpc scale between the gas surface density and the face-on optical depth directly…
