Physical conditions of the molecular gas in metal-poor galaxies
L. K. Hunt, A. Weiss, C. Henkel +8
Studying the molecular component of the interstellar medium in metal-poor galaxies has been challenging because of the faintness of carbon monoxide emission, the most common proxy…

Magnetic and gaseous spiral arms in M83
P. Frick, R. Stepanov, R. Beck +4
Isotropic and anisotropic wavelet transforms are used to decompose the images of the spiral galaxy M83 in various tracers to quantify structures in a range of scales from 0.2 to 10…

Molecular depletion times and the CO-to-H2 conversion factor in metal-poor galaxies
L. K. Hunt, S. Garcia-Burillo, V. Casasola +8
Tracing molecular hydrogen content with carbon monoxide in low-metallicity galaxies has been exceedingly difficult. Here we present a new effort, with IRAM 30-m observations of 12C…
