From Scaling Relations to Physical Laws: Constraining the Physics of Star Formation Across Local Galaxies
Jakob den Brok, Cecilia Bacchini, Leindert A. Boogaard +21

We compare embedded young massive star clusters (YMCs) to (sub-)millimeter line observations tracing the excitation and dissociation of molecular gas in the starburst ring of NGC 1…
The PHANGS-JWST Treasury Survey: Star Formation, Feedback, and Dust Physics at High Angular resolution in Nearby GalaxieS
Janice C. Lee, Karin M. Sandstrom, Adam K. Leroy +74
The PHANGS collaboration has been building a reference dataset for the multi-scale, multi-phase study of star formation and the interstellar medium in nearby galaxies. With the suc…
PHANGS-JWST First Results: Multi-wavelength view of feedback-driven bubbles (The Phantom Voids) across NGC 628
Ashley T. Barnes, Elizabeth J. Watkins, Sharon E. Meidt +51
We present a high-resolution view of bubbles within The Phantom Galaxy (NGC 628); a nearby (~10Mpc), star-forming (~2Msun/yr), face-on (i~9deg) grand-design spiral galaxy. With new…
BASS XXXII: Studying the Nuclear Mm-wave Continuum Emission of AGNs with ALMA at Scales 100-200 pc
