Dust properties and star formation of approximately a thousand local galaxies
Sophia Lianou, Pauline Barmby, Aleksandr Mosenkov +2
[ABRIDGED] We derive the dust properties for 753 local galaxies and examine how these relate to some of their physical properties. We model their global dust-SEDs, treated statisti…

We present Herschel SPIRE-FTS intermediate-sampled mapping observations of the central ~8 kpc (~150") of M51, with a spatial resolution of 40". We detect 4 12CO transitions (J=4-3…
Far-reaching Dust Distribution in Galaxy Disks
Matthew W. L. Smith, Stephen A. Eales, Ilse De Looze +21
In most studies of dust in galaxies, dust is only detected from its emission to approximately the optical radius of the galaxy. By combining the signal of 110 spiral galaxies obser…
The spatially-resolved correlation between [NII] 205 μm line emission and the 24 μm continuum in nearby galaxies
T. M. Hughes, M. Baes, M. R. P. Schirm +12
A correlation between the 24 μm continuum and the [NII] 205 μm line emission may arise if both quantities trace the star formation activity on spatially-resolved scales within a ga…
The bolometric and UV attenuation in normal spiral galaxies of the Herschel Reference Survey
S. Viaene, M. Baes, G. Bendo +11
The dust in nearby galaxies absorbs a fraction of the UV-optical-near-infrared radiation produced by stars. This energy is consequently re-emitted in the infrared. We investigate t…
Linking dust emission to fundamental properties in galaxies: The low-metallicity picture
A. Rémy-Ruyer, S. C. Madden, F. Galliano +15
In this work, we aim at providing a consistent analysis of the dust properties from metal-poor to metal-rich environments by linking them to fundamental galactic parameters. We con…
The Herschel Dwarf Galaxy Survey: I. Properties of the low-metallicity ISM from PACS spectroscopy
D. Cormier, S. C. Madden, V. Lebouteiller +17
The far-infrared (FIR) lines are key tracers of the physical conditions of the interstellar medium (ISM) and are becoming workhorse diagnostics for galaxies throughout the universe…
Insights into gas heating and cooling in the disc of NGC 891 from Herschel far-infrared spectroscopy
T. M. Hughes, K. Foyle, M. R. P. Schirm +15
We present Herschel PACS and SPIRE spectroscopy of the most important far-infrared cooling lines in the nearby edge-on spiral galaxy, NGC 891: [CII] 158 m, [NII] 122, 205 m,…
High-resolution, 3D radiative transfer modeling : I. The grand-design spiral galaxy M51
Ilse De Looze, Jacopo Fritz, Maarten Baes +20
Context: Dust reprocesses about half of the stellar radiation in galaxies. The thermal re-emission by dust of absorbed energy is considered driven merely by young stars and, conseq…
The physical characteristics of the gas in the disk of Centaurus A using the Herschel Space Observatory
T. J. Parkin, C. D. Wilson, M. R. P. Schirm +12
We search for variations in the disk of Centaurus A of the emission from atomic fine structure lines using Herschel PACS and SPIRE spectroscopy. In particular we observe the [C II]…
The Herschel Exploitation of Local Galaxy Andromeda (HELGA): IV. Dust scaling relations at sub-kpc resolution
S. Viaene, J. Fritz, M. Baes +18
The imprints of dust-starlight interactions are visible in scaling relations between stellar characteristics, star formation parameters and dust properties. We aim to examine dust…
The applicability of FIR fine-structure lines as Star Formation Rate tracers over wide ranges of metallicities and galaxy types
Ilse De Looze, Diane Cormier, Vianney Lebouteiller +19
We analyze the applicability of far-infrared fine-structure lines [CII] 158 micron, [OI] 63 micron and [OIII] 88 micron to reliably trace the star formation rate (SFR) in a sample…
