Star Formation Relations in the Milky Way

Nalin Vutisalchavakul, Neal J. Evans, Mark Heyer

The relations between star formation and properties of molecular clouds are studied based on a sample of star forming regions in the Galactic Plane. Sources were selected by having…

The Star Formation Relation for Regions in the Galactic Plane: The Effect of Spatial Resolution

Nalin Vutisalchavakul, Neal J. Evans, Cara Battersby

We examined the relations between molecular gas surface density and star formation rate surface density in a 11 square degree region of the Galactic Plane. Dust continuum at 1.1 mm…

Star Formation Relations in Nearby Molecular Clouds

Neal J. Evans, Amanda Heiderman, Nalin Vutisalchavakul

We test some ideas for star formation relations against data on local molecular clouds. On a cloud by cloud basis, the relation between the surface density of star formation rate a…

The VIRUS-P Exploration of Nearby Galaxies (VENGA): Survey Design, Data Processing, and Spectral Analysis Methods

Guillermo A. Blanc, Tim Weinzirl, Mimi Song +14

We present the survey design, data reduction, and spectral fitting pipeline for the VIRUS-P Exploration of Nearby Galaxies (VENGA). VENGA is an integral field spectroscopic survey,…

Testing 24 micron and Infrared Luminosity as Star Formation Tracers for Galactic Star Forming Regions

Nalin Vutisalchavakul, Neal J. Evans

We have tested some relations for star formation rates used in extra-galactic studies for regions within the Galaxy. In nearby molecular clouds, where the IMF is not fully-sampled,…

A Study of Differential Rotation on II Pegasi via Photometric Starspot Imaging

Rachael M. Roettenbacher, Robert O. Harmon, Nalin Vutisalchavakul +1

We present the results of a study of differential rotation on the K2 IV primary of the RS CVn binary II Pegasi (HD 224085) performed by inverting light curves to produce images of…
