Cloud-scale gas properties, depletion times, and star formation efficiency per free-fall time in PHANGS--ALMA

Adam K. Leroy, Jiayi Sun, Sharon Meidt +31

We compare measurements of star formation efficiency to cloud-scale gas properties across PHANGS-ALMA. Dividing 67 galaxies into 1.5 kpc scale regions, we calculate the molecular g…

BASS.L. Near-infrared Data Release 3: A Spectral Atlas and Characterization of AGN

Jarred Gillette, Michael J. Koss, Darshan Kakkad +18

We present an analysis of near-infrared (NIR) emission-line properties, AGN diagnostics, and circumnuclear gas dynamics for 453 hard X-ray selected (14195 keV) AGN from the BAT…

Deep Andromeda JCMT-SCUBA2 Observations. The Submillimeter Maps and Giant Molecular Clouds

Sihan Jiao, Jingwen Wu, Hauyu Baobab Liu +23

We have carried out unprecedentedly deep, nearly confusion-limited JCMT-SCUBA2 mapping observations on the nearest spiral galaxy, M31 (Andromeda). The 850 m image with a

Resolved Profiles of Stellar Mass, Star Formation Rate, and Predicted CO-to-H Conversion Factor Across Thousands of Local Galaxies

Jiayi Sun, Yu-Hsuan Teng, I-Da Chiang +9

We present radial profiles of surface brightness in UV and IR bands, estimate stellar mass surface density () and star formation rate surface density (),…

Constraining resolved extragalactic variation with well calibrated ALMA observations

Jakob den Brok, Elias K. Oakes, Adam K. Leroy +13

CO(1-0) and CO(2-1) are commonly used as bulk molecular gas tracers. The CO line ratios (especially CO(2-1)/CO(1-0) - ) vary within and among galaxies, yet previous studies…

Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbon and CO(2-1) Emission at 50-150 pc Scales in 70 Nearby Galaxies

Ryan Chown, Adam K. Leroy, Karin Sandstrom +44

Combining Atacama Large Millimeter/sub-millimeter Array CO(2-1) mapping and JWST near- and mid-infrared imaging, we characterize the relationship between CO(2-1) and polycyclic aro…
