Spatially-resolved interstellar dust properties in the face-on spiral galaxy M 99 as observed by NIKA2
L. Pantoni, F. Galliano, S. C. Madden +62
Large dust grains in thermal equilibrium dominate the far-infrared and contribute to the millimetre continuum of star-forming galaxies, but constraining their properties is difficu…
High resolution mapping of molecular tori with ALMA
F. Combes, A. Audibert, S. Garcia-Burillo +11
Recent high resolution mapping of the circum-nuclear regions of Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) has revealed the existence of geometrically thin nuclear disks, in general randomly ori…
Decoding the molecular torus of NGC 1068: Insights into its structure and kinematics from high-resolution ALMA observations
V. Gámez Rosas, P. van der Werf, J. F. Gallimore +12
We dissect the kinematics and morphology of the molecular gas within the near-nuclear region of NGC 1068 to understand the mechanisms in the central AGN that might be fueling it, a…
CHOH as a User-Friendly Density Probe: Calibration and Beyond
A. Giannetti, S. Leurini, E. Schisano +4
Almost all the physics of star formation critically depends on the number density of the molecular gas. However, the methods to estimate this key property often rely on uncertain a…
