Gravitational torques imply molecular gas inflow towards the nucleus of M51
M. Querejeta, S. Meidt, E. Schinnerer +10
The transport of gas towards the centre of galaxies is critical for black hole feeding and, indirectly, it can control active galactic nucleus (AGN) feedback. We have quantified th…
A High Resolution Wide-Field Radio Survey of M51
Hayden Rampadarath, John S. Morgan, Roberto Soria +4
We present the highest resolution, wide-field radio survey of a nearby face-on star-forming galaxy to date. The multi-phase centre technique is used to survey the entire disk of M5…
Short GMC lifetimes: an observational estimate with the PdBI Arcsecond Whirlpool Survey (PAWS)
Sharon E. Meidt, Annie Hughes, Clare L. Dobbs +10
We describe and execute a novel approach to observationally estimate the lifetimes of giant molecular clouds (GMCs). We focus on the cloud population between the two main spiral ar…
