Mapping CO Ice in a Star-Forming Filament in the 3 kpc Arm with JWST
Savannah Gramze, Adam Ginsburg, Nazar Budaiev +14
CO gas emission is a fundamental tool for measuring column density, but in cold, dark clouds, much of the CO is locked away in ice. We present JWST results from observations of a s…
Characterizing the interplay between Galactic star formation and ionization feedback with PRIMA
Annie Zavagno, Delphine Russeil, Paolo Suin +13
Recent results from the James Webb Space Telescope show that nearby spiral galaxies are dominated by the presence of H I and H II bubbles that strongly shape their surrounding medi…
Structure and Fragmentation Scale of a Massive Star-Forming Filament in NGC6334: High-Resolution Mid-Infrared Absorption Imaging with JWST
Philippe André, Michael Mattern, Doris Arzoumanian +4
Dense filaments are believed to be representative of the initial conditions of star formation in molecular clouds. We have used the MIRI instrument on JWST to image the massive fil…
Understanding the Star Formation Efficiency in Dense Gas: Initial Results from the CAFFEINE Survey with ArTéMiS
M. Mattern, Ph. André, A. Zavagno +9
Despite recent progress, the question of what regulates the star formation efficiency in galaxies remains one of the most debated problems in astrophysics. According to the dominan…
