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…

A Detailed GASKAP-HI View of Shells and Loops in the Magellanic Bridge

Shin-Jeong Kim, Antoine Marchal, N. M. McClure-Griffiths +19

We present 8 pc-scale GASKAP-HI observations of an HI shell (diameter \sim130 pc) associated with the Hαshell DEM171 in the Magellanic Bridge. The Bridge's diffuse, HI-dominated en…

The Milky Way Joins the Extragalactic World: I. PHANGS

Neal J. Evans, Davide Elia, Jiayi Sun +2

Complete catalogs of molecular clouds in the Milky Way allow analysis of the molecular medium and the star formation properties of the Milky Way that closely follows the method use…

Mid-Infrared Colors Vary with Galactic Environment: Contrasting Star-Forming Disks, Young Centers, and Quiescent Star-Formation Deserts

Debosmita Pathak, Karin M. Sandstrom, Adam K. Leroy +27

We present pc-resolution JWST/MIRI and NIRCam measurements of mid-infrared (mid-IR) color variations in the diffuse interstellar medium (ISM) of 71 nearby star-forming…

Diffuse HI emission in the circumgalactic medium of NGC891 and NGC4565 - III: azimuthal profiles

Mary Rickel, Sanskriti Das, Nickolas M. Pingel +4

Diffuse HI emission in the circumgalactic medium (CGM) of NGC891 and NGC4565 has been previously shown to trace an inflow along minor axes pointings and to co-rotate with the HI di…
