Tracing the earliest stages of star and cluster formation in 19 nearby galaxies with PHANGS-JWST and HST: compact 3.3 m PAH emitters and their relation to the optical census of star clusters
M. Jimena RodrÃguez, Janice C. Lee, Remy Indebetouw +25
The earliest stages of star and cluster formation are hidden within dense cocoons of gas and dust, limiting their detection at optical wavelengths. With the unprecedented infrared…

CO isotopologue-derived molecular gas conditions and CO-to-H conversion factors in M51
Jakob den Brok, MarÃa J. Jiménez-Donaire, Adam Leroy +24
Over the past decade, several millimeter interferometer programs have mapped the nearby star-forming galaxy M51 at a spatial resolution of pc. This study combines observ…

PHANGS-ML: the universal relation between PAH band and optical line ratios across nearby star-forming galaxies
Dalya Baron, Karin Sandstrom, Jessica Sutter +22
The structure and chemistry of the dusty interstellar medium (ISM) are shaped by complex processes that depend on the local radiation field, gas composition, and dust grain propert…
