Dense gas in low-metallicity galaxies
J. Braine, Y. Shimajiri, P. André +4
Stars form out of the densest parts of molecular clouds. Far-IR emission can be used to estimate the Star Formation Rate (SFR) and high dipole moment molecules, typically HCN, trac…
Dense Gas in the Outer Spiral Arm of M51
Hao Chen, Jonathan Braine, Yu Gao +2
There is a linear relation between the mass of dense gas, traced by the HCN(1-0) luminosity, and the star formation rate (SFR), traced by the far-infrared luminosity. Recent observ…
The molecular gas mass of M33
P. Gratier, J. Braine, K. Schuster +15
[Abridged] Do some environments favor efficient conversion of molecular gas into stars? To answer this, we need to be able to estimate the H2 mass. Traditionally, this is done usin…
Structure and kinematics of the clouds surrounding the Galactic mini-starburst W43 MM1
T. Jacq, J. Braine, F. Herpin +2
Massive stars have a major influence on their environment yet their formation is difficult to study. W43 is a highly luminous galactic massive star forming region at a distance of…
Dust Properties in HII Regions in M33
M. Relano, R. Kennicutt, U. Lisenfeld +11
The conversion of the IR emission into star formation rate can be strongly dependent on the physical properties of the dust, which are affected by the environmental conditions wher…
Unveiling The Physics of Star Formation and Feedback in Galaxies
F. S. Tabatabaei, J. Braine, C. Kramer +3
Recent studies show the importance of feedback in the evolution of the star formation rate in the Universe. However, the nature and physics of the feedback are still pressing quest…
