ALMA Resolves Giant Molecular Clouds in a Tidal Dwarf Galaxy
M. Querejeta, F. Lelli, E. Schinnerer +12
Tidal dwarf galaxies (TDGs) are gravitationally bound condensations of gas and stars formed during galaxy interactions. Here we present multi-configuration ALMA observations of J10…
Pre-supernova feedback mechanisms drive the destruction of molecular clouds in nearby star-forming disc galaxies
Mélanie Chevance, J. M. Diederik Kruijssen, Mark R. Krumholz +28
It is a major open question which physical processes stop the accretion of gas onto giant molecular clouds (GMCs) and limit the efficiency at which gas is converted into stars with…
Measuring the mixing scale of the ISM within nearby spiral galaxies
Kathryn Kreckel, I-Ting Ho, Guillermo A. Blanc +28
The spatial distribution of metals reflects, and can be used to constrain, the processes of chemical enrichment and mixing. Using PHANGS-MUSE optical integral field spectroscopy, w…
Molecular Gas Properties on Cloud Scales Across the Local Star-forming Galaxy Population
Jiayi Sun, Adam K. Leroy, Eva Schinnerer +34
Using the PHANGS-ALMA CO (2-1) survey, we characterize molecular gas properties on 100 pc scales across 102,778 independent sightlines in 70 nearby galaxies. This yields th…
Ubiquitous velocity fluctuations throughout the molecular interstellar medium
J. D. Henshaw, J. M. D. Kruijssen, S. N. Longmore +23
The density structure of the interstellar medium (ISM) determines where stars form and release energy, momentum, and heavy elements, driving galaxy evolution. Density variations ar…
PHANGS CO kinematics: disk orientations and rotation curves at 150 pc resolution
Philipp Lang, Sharon E. Meidt, Erik Rosolowsky +24
We present kinematic orientations and high resolution (150 pc) rotation curves for 67 main sequence star-forming galaxies surveyed in CO (2-1) emission by PHANGS-ALMA. Our measurem…
