A complete 12CO 2--1 map of M51 with HERA: II. Total gas surface densities and gravitational stability
M. Hitschfeld, C. Kramer, K. F. Schuster +2
To date the onset of large-scale star formation in galaxies and its link to gravitational stability of the galactic disk have not been fully understood. The nearby face-on spiral g…
Submillimeter Line Emission from LMC N159W: a Dense, Clumpy PDR in a Low Metallicity Environment
J. L. Pineda, N. Mizuno, J. Stutzki +30
Star formation at earlier cosmological times takes place in an interstellar medium with low metallicity. The Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) is ideally suited to study star formation…
12CO 4-3 and [CI] 1-0 at the centers of NGC 4945 and Circinus
M. Hitschfeld, M. Aravena, C. Kramer +30
Studying molecular gas in the central regions of the star burst galaxies NGC4945 and Circinus enables us to characterize the physical conditions and compare them to previous local…
Clumpy photon-dominated regions in Carina. I. [CI] and mid-J CO lines in two 4'x4' fields
C. Kramer, M. Cubick, M. Roellig +31
The Carina region is an excellent astrophysical laboratory for studying the feedback mechanisms of newly born, very massive stars within their natal giant molecular clouds (GMCs) a…
A complete 12CO 2-1 map of M51 with HERA
C. Kramer, M. Hitschfeld, K. F. Schuster +2
The nearby, almost face-on, and interacting galaxy M51 offers an excellent opportunity to study the distribution of molecular gas and the mechanisms governing the star formation ra…
A complete 12CO 2-1 map of M51 with HERA: I. Radial averages of CO, HI, and radio continuum
K. F. Schuster, C. Kramer, M. Hitschfeld +2
The mechanisms governing the star formation rate in spiral galaxies are not yet clear. The nearby, almost face-on, and interacting galaxy M51 offers an excellent opportunity to stu…
