The excitation of near-infrared H2 emission in NGC 253
M. J. F. Rosenberg, P. P. van der Werf, F. P. Israel
Because of its large angular size and proximity to the Milky Way, NGC 253, an archetypal starburst galaxy, provides an excellent laboratory to study the intricacies of this intense…
Disentangling the circumnuclear environs of Centaurus A: Gaseous Spiral Arms in a Giant Elliptical Galaxy
D. Espada, S. Matsushita, A. B. Peck +3
We report the existence of spiral arms in the recently formed gaseous and dusty disk of the closest giant elliptical, NGC 5128 (Centaurus A), using high resolution 12CO(2-1) observ…
Spectrally resolved CII emission in M~33 ({\tt HerM33es}): Physical conditions and kinematics around BCLMP 691
J. Braine, P. Gratier, C. Kramer +7
This work presents high spectral resolution observations of the \CII\ line at 158 \micron, one of the major cooling lines of the interstellar medium, taken with the HIFI heterodyne…
The JCMT Nearby Galaxies Legacy Survey VIII. CO data and the L(CO3-2)-L(FIR) correlation in the SINGS sample
C. D. Wilson, B. E. Warren, F. P. Israel +57
The James Clerk Maxwell Telescope Nearby Galaxies Legacy Survey (NGLS) comprises an HI-selected sample of 155 galaxies spanning all morphological types with distances less than 25…
Diagnostics of the Molecular Component of PDRs with Mechanical Heating
M. V. Kazandjian, R. Meijerink, I. Pelupessy +2
Context. Multitransition CO observations of galaxy centers have revealed that significant fractions of the dense circumnuclear gas have high kinetic temperatures, which are hard to…
[FeII] as a tracer of Supernova Rate in Near-by Starburst Galaxies
M. J. F. Rosenberg, P. P. van der Werf, F. P. Israel
Supernovae play an integral role in the feedback of processed material into the ISM of galaxies and are responsible for much of the chemical enrichment of the universe. The rate of…
