SEDIGISM-ATLASGAL: Dense Gas Fraction and Star Formation Efficiency Across the Galactic Disk

J. S. Urquhart, C. Figura, J. R. Cross +32

By combining two surveys covering a large fraction of the molecular material in the Galactic disk we investigate the role the spiral arms play in the star formation process. We hav…

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…

ATLASGAL -- Relationship between dense star forming clumps and interstellar masers

S. J. Billington, J. S. Urquhart, C. König +10

We have used catalogues from several Galactic plane surveys and dedicated observations to investigate the relationship between various maser species and Galactic star forming clump…

The role of spiral arms in Milky Way star formation

S. E. Ragan, T. J. T. Moore, D. J. Eden +4

What role does Galactic structure play in star formation? We have used the Herschel Hi-GAL compact-clump catalogue to examine trends in evolutionary stage over large spatial scales…

Extreme star formation in the Milky Way: Luminosity distributions of young stellar objects in W49A and W51

D. J. Eden, T. J. T. Moore, J. S. Urquhart +8

We have compared the star-formation properties of the W49A and W51 regions by using far-infrared data from the Herschel infrared Galactic Plane Survey (Hi-GAL) and 850-um observati…

Spatial distribution of star formation related to ionized regions throughout the inner Galactic plane

P. Palmeirim, A. Zavagno, D. Elia +35

We present a comprehensive statistical analysis of star-forming objects located in the vicinities of 1 360 bubble structures throughout the Galactic Plane and their local environme…
