Revisiting the Origin of the Star-Forming Main Sequence Based on a Volume-Limited Sample of ~25,000 Galaxies
Yang Gao, Shujiao Liang, Qinghua Tan +10
We revisit the extensively debated star-forming main sequence (SFMS)-a tight correlation between the star formation rate and stellar mass in both kiloparsec-resolved and integrated…
The MALATANG survey: star formation, dense gas, and AGN feedback in NGC 1068
Shuting Lin, Siyi Feng, Zhi-Yu Zhang +14
We aim to investigate the interplay between dense molecular gas, star formation, and active galactic nucleus (AGN) feedback in the luminous infrared galaxy (LIRG) NGC 1068 at sub-k…
The MALATANG survey: Dense gas distribution on sub-kiloparsec scales across the disk of M82
Jian-Fa Wang, Yu Gao, Qing-Hua Tan +23
We present observations of HCN J=4-3 and HCO^+ J=4-3 lines obtained with the James Clerk Maxwell Telescope as part of the MALATANG survey, combined with archival HCN J=1-0 and HCO^…
CO-CHANGES II: spatially resolved IRAM 30M CO line observations of 23 nearby edge-on spiral galaxies
Yan Jiang, Jiang-Tao Li, Qing-Hua Tan +6
Molecular gas, as the fuel for star formation, and its relationship with atomic gas are crucial for understanding how galaxies regulate their star forming (SF) activities. We condu…
The first exploration of the correlations between \textit{WISE} 12 \micron\ and CO emission in early-type galaxies
Yang Gao, Enci Wang, Qing-Hua Tan +10
We present the analysis of a comprehensive sample of 352 early-type galaxies using public data, to investigate the correlations between CO luminosities and mid-infrared luminositie…
