The Parsec-Scale Relationship Between I_CO and A_V in Local Molecular Clouds

Cheoljong Lee, Adam K. Leroy, Alberto D. Bolatto +4

We measure the parsec-scale relationship between integrated CO intensity (I_CO) and visual extinction (A_V) in 24 local molecular clouds using maps of CO emission and dust optical…

The Small Magellanic Cloud Investigation of Dust and Gas Evolution (SMIDGE): The Dust Extinction Curve from Red Clump Stars

Petia Yanchulova Merica-Jones, Karin M. Sandstrom, L. Clifton Johnson +6

We use Hubble Space Telescope (HST) observations of red clump stars taken as part of the Small Magellanic Cloud Investigation of Dust and Gas Evolution (SMIDGE) program to measure…

The Origins of [CII] Emission in Local Star-forming Galaxies

Kevin Croxall, J. D. T. Smith, Eric Pellegrini +17

The [CII] 158um fine-structure line is the brightest emission line observed in local star-forming galaxies. As a major coolant of the gas-phase interstellar medium, [CII] balances…

Attenuation modified by DIG and dust as seen in M31

Neven Tomicic, Kathryn Kreckel, Brent Groves +5

The spatial distribution of dust in galaxies affects the global attenuation, and hence inferred properties, of galaxies. We trace the spatial distribution of dust in five fields (a…

The Survey of Lines in M31 (SLIM): The Drivers of the [CII]/TIR Variation

Maria Julia Kapala, Brent Groves, Karin Sandstrom +7

The ratio of the [CII] 158m emission line over the total infrared emission (TIR) is often used as a proxy for the photoelectric (PE) heating efficiency () of the f…

The SAGE-Spec Spitzer Legacy program: The life-cycle of dust and gas in the Large Magellanic Cloud. Point source classification III

Olivia C. Jones, Paul M. Woods, F. Kemper +16

The Infrared Spectrograph (IRS) on the {\em Spitzer Space Telescope} observed nearly 800 point sources in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC), taking over 1,000 spectra. 197 of these…
