Rotation and stability of the circumnuclear gas disk in the Galactic Center potential by the ALMA CMZ Exploration Survey (ACES)
Yoshiaki Sofue, Steven N. Longmore, Daniel Walker +26
We investigated the gravitational potential and mass distribution in the Galactic Center by examining the morphology and kinematics of the circumnuclear gaseous disk revealed by th…
SiO emission in the filamentary Infrared Dark Cloud G035.39-00.33: An ALMA view
Rong Liu, Izaskun Jiménez-Serra, Giuliana Cosentino +8
Filamentary infrared dark clouds (IRDCs) are believed to represent the initial conditions for massive star and cluster formation. We investigate the IRDC G035.39-00.33 using SiO, H…
ACES: The Magnetic Field in Large Filaments in the Galactic Center
Dylan M. Paré, Zi-Xuan Feng, Yue Hu +33
The Galactic Center (GC) is an extreme region of the Milky Way that is host to a complex set of thermal and non-thermal structures. In particular, the GC contains high-density gas…
Rhea-RT: Dynamical impact of Central Molecular Zone conditions on the properties of the interstellar medium and stellar feedback coupling
R. G. Tress, N. Brucy, P. Girichidis +22
The Central Molecular Zone (CMZ) is an extreme star formation environment, characterized by higher density, higher turbulence, stronger orbital shear, and stronger magnetic field s…
Extreme cloud collisions in nearby barred galaxies
Tutku Kolcu, Mattia C. Sormani, Witold Maciejewski +16
The inner regions of the Milky Way are known to contain an enigmatic population of prominent molecular clouds characterised by extremely broad lines. The physical origin of these '…
Circum-nuclear eccentric gas flow in the Galactic Center revealed by ALMA CMZ Exploration Survey (ACES)
Yoshiaki Sofue, Tomoharu Oka, Steven N. Longmore +41
We analyze the CS (J=2-1) line cube from the internal data release obtained by the large-scale program "ALMA CMZ Exploration Survey (ACES)" to investigate the kinematic structure o…
Reconciling extragalactic star formation efficiencies with theory: insights from PHANGS
Sharon E. Meidt, Simon C. O. Glover, Ralf S. Klessen +22
New extragalactic measurements of the cloud population-averaged star formation (SF) efficiency per freefall time from PHANGS show little sign of theoretically predi…
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…
