Towards A Removal of Temperature Dependencies from Abundance Determinations

Kevin V. Croxall, J. D. Smith, B. R. Brandl +16

The metal content of a galaxy is a key property for distinguishing between viable galaxy evolutionary scenarios, and it strongly influences many of the physical processes in the in…

Star Formation Rates in Resolved Galaxies: Calibrations with Near and Far Infrared Data for NGC5055 and NGC6946

Yiming Li, Alison F. Crocker, Daniela Calzetti +21

We use the near--infrared Brγhydrogen recombination line as a reference star formation rate (SFR) indicator to test the validity and establish the calibration of the {\it Herschel}…

Calibration of the total infrared luminosity of nearby galaxies from Spitzer and Herschel bands

M. Galametz, R. C. Kennicutt, D. Calzetti +20

We present new empirical calibrations to estimate resolved and integrated total infrared luminosities from Spitzer and Herschel bands used as monochromatic or combined tracers. We…

A Detailed Study of the Radio--FIR Correlation in NGC6946 with Herschel-PACS/SPIRE from KINGFISH

F. S. Tabatabaei, E. Schinnerer, E. J. Murphy +22

We derive the distribution of the synchrotron spectral index across NGC6946 and investigate the correlation between the radio continuum (synchrotron) and far-infrared (FIR) emissio…

The CO-to-H2 Conversion Factor and Dust-to-Gas Ratio on Kiloparsec Scales in Nearby Galaxies

K. M. Sandstrom, A. K. Leroy, F. Walter +42

We present kiloparsec (kpc) spatial resolution maps of the CO-to-H2 conversion factor (alpha_co) and dust-to-gas ratio (DGR) in 26 nearby, star-forming galaxies. We have simultaneo…

KINGFISH -- Key Insights on Nearby Galaxies: A Far-Infrared Survey with Herschel: Survey Description and Image Atlas

R. C. Kennicutt, D. Calzetti, G. Aniano +40

The KINGFISH project (Key Insights on Nearby Galaxies: a Far-Infrared Survey with Herschel) is an imaging and spectroscopic survey of 61 nearby (d < 30 Mpc) galaxies, chosen to cov…
