The SAMI Galaxy Survey: a new method to estimate molecular gas surface densities from star formation rates

Christoph Federrath, Diane M. Salim, Anne M. Medling +16

Stars form in cold molecular clouds. However, molecular gas is difficult to observe because the most abundant molecule (H2) lacks a permanent dipole moment. Rotational transitions…
