The Radio Spectral Energy Distribution and Star Formation Rate Calibration in Galaxies
F. S. Tabatabaei, E. Schinnerer, M. Krause +17
We study the spectral energy distribution (SED) of the radio continuum emission from the KINGFISH sample of nearby galaxies to understand the energetics and origin of this emission…
PHIBSS: Exploring the Dependence of the CO-H Conversion Factor on Total Mass Surface Density at
Timothy Carleton, Michael C. Cooper, Alberto D. Bolatto +10
We present an analysis of the relationship between the CO-H conversion factor () and total mass surface density () in star-forming galaxies at $z < 1…
The Spatially Resolved [CII] Cooling Line Deficit in Galaxies
J. D. T. Smith, Kevin Croxall, Bruce Draine +17
We present [CII] 158um measurements from over 15,000 resolved regions within 54 nearby galaxies of the KINGFISH program to investigate the so-called [CII] "line cooling deficit" lo…
The Molecular Clouds Fueling a 1/5 Solar Metallicity Starburst
Amanda A. Kepley, Adam K. Leroy, Kelsey E. Johnson +2
Using the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array, we have made the first high spatial and spectral resolution observations of the molecular gas and dust in the prototypical b…
A Portrait of Cold Gas in Galaxies at 60pc Resolution and a Simple Method to Test Hypotheses That Link Small-Scale ISM Structure to Galaxy-Scale Processes
Adam K. Leroy, Annie Hughes, Andreas Schruba +14
The cloud-scale density, velocity dispersion, and gravitational boundedness of the interstellar medium (ISM) vary within and among galaxies. In turbulent models, these properties p…
The Panchromatic Hubble Andromeda Treasury XV. The BEAST: Bayesian Extinction and Stellar Tool
Karl D. Gordon, Morgan Fouesneau, Heddy Arab +17
We present the Bayesian Extinction And Stellar Tool (BEAST), a probabilistic approach to modeling the dust extinguished photometric spectral energy distribution of an individual st…
Panchromatic Hubble Andromeda Treasury XVI. Star Cluster Formation Efficiency and the Clustered Fraction of Young Stars
L. Clifton Johnson, Anil C. Seth, Julianne J. Dalcanton +10
We use the Panchromatic Hubble Andromeda Treasury (PHAT) survey dataset to perform spatially resolved measurements of star cluster formation efficiency (), the fraction of stell…
The Ionized Gas in Nearby Galaxies as Traced by the [NII] 122 and 205 μm Transitions
R. Herrera-Camus, A. Bolatto, J. D. Smith +20
The [NII] 122 and 205 μm transitions are powerful tracers of the ionized gas in the interstellar medium. By combining data from 21 galaxies selected from the Herschel KINGFISH and…
The EMPIRE Survey: Systematic Variations in the Dense Gas Fraction and Star Formation Efficiency from Full-Disk Mapping of M51
F. Bigiel, A. K. Leroy, M. J. Jimenez-Donaire +16
We present the first results from the EMPIRE survey, an IRAM large program that is mapping tracers of high density molecular gas across the disks of nine nearby star-forming galaxi…
