A multi-scale molecular and atomic gas view on the HII region N113 in the Large Magellanic Cloud:Evidence for high-mass star formation triggered by supersonically-colliding HI flows

Rin I. Yamada, Kazuki Tokuda, Yasuo Fukui +15

The Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) exhibits vigorous high-mass star formation, including the HII regions 30~Dor that is the most active site of star formation in the local group. The…

Tidal stability of giant molecular clouds in the Large Magellanic Cloud

E. Thilliez, S. T. Maddison, A. Hughes +1

Star formation does not occur until the onset of gravitational collapse inside giant molecular clouds. However, the conditions that initiate cloud collapse and regulate the star fo…

The EGNoG Survey: Gas Excitation in Normal Galaxies at z~0.3

Amber Bauermeister, Leo Blitz, Alberto D. Bolatto +4

As observations of molecular gas in galaxies are pushed to lower star formation rate galaxies at higher redshifts, it is becoming increasingly important to understand the condition…

Molecular line mapping of the giant molecular cloud associated with RCW 106 - II. Column density and dynamical state of the clumps

T. Wong, E. F. Ladd, D. Brisbin +12

We present a fully sampled C^{18}O (1-0) map towards the southern giant molecular cloud (GMC) associated with the HII region RCW 106, and use it in combination with previous ^{13}C…

Thermal and non-thermal components of the interstellar medium at sub-kiloparsec scales in galaxies

R. Paladino, M. Murgia, T. T. Helfer +5

Aims: We present new radio continuum observations of ten BIMA SONG galaxies, taken at 1.4 GHz with the Very Large Array. These observations allow us to extend the study of the rela…

The Relationship Between Gas Content and Star Formation in Molecule-Rich Spiral Galaxies

Tony Wong, Leo Blitz

We investigate the relationship between HI, H_2, and the star formation rate (SFR) using azimuthally averaged data for seven CO-bright spiral galaxies. Contrary to some earlier stu…
