The HASHTAG project: The First Submillimeter Images of the Andromeda Galaxy from the Ground

Matthew W. L. Smith, Stephen A. Eales, Thomas G. Williams +46

Observing nearby galaxies with submillimeter telescopes on the ground has two major challenges. First, the brightness is significantly reduced at long submillimeter wavelengths com…

The Herschel Exploitation of Local Galaxy Andromeda (HELGA). VI. The distribution and properties of molecular cloud associations in M31

Jason M. Kirk, Walter K. Gear, Jacopo Fritz +18

In this paper we present a catalogue of Giant Molecular Clouds (GMCs) in the Andromeda (M31) galaxy extracted from the Hershel Exploitation of Local Galaxy Andromeda (HELGA) datase…

Herschel Exploitation of Local Galaxy Andromeda (HELGA) III: The Star Formation Law in M31

George P. Ford, Walter K. Gear, Matthew W. L. Smith +17

We present a detailed study of how the Star Formation Rate (SFR) relates to the interstellar medium (ISM) of M31 at ~140pc scales. The SFR is calculated using the far-ultraviolet a…

The Herschel Exploitation of Local Galaxy Andromeda (HELGA) II: Dust and Gas in Andromeda

M. W. L. Smith, S. A. Eales, H. L. Gomez +26

We present an analysis of the dust and gas in Andromeda, using Herschel images sampling the entire far-infrared peak. We fit a modified-blackbody model to ~4000 quasi-independent p…

The Herschel Exploitation of Local Galaxy Andromeda (HELGA). I: Global far-infrared and sub-mm morphology

J. Fritz, G. Gentile, M. W. L. Smith +30

We have obtained Herschel images at five wavelengths from 100 to 500 micron of a ~5.5x2.5 degree area centred on the local galaxy M31 (Andromeda), our nearest neighbour spiral gala…
