Localized Deviations from the CO-PAH Relation in PHANGS-JWST Galaxies: Faint PAH Emission or Elevated CO Emissivity?
Jaeyeon Kim, Adam K. Leroy, Karin Sandstrom +25
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) emission is widely used to trace the distribution of molecular gas in the interstellar medium, exhibiting a tight correlation with CO(2-1) emi…
The molecular diversity of the ISM in galaxies across cosmic time
Mathilde Bouvier, Yiqing Song, Michael Romano +7
Submillimetre molecular lines (e.g., CO, HCN, SiO) provide a uniquely powerful view of the physical and chemical processes that govern star formation (SF) and galaxy evolution. Yet…
Surveying the Whirlpool at Arcseconds with NOEMA (SWAN): III. CO/CO ratio variations across the M51 galaxy
Ina GaliÄ, Mallory Thorp, Frank Bigiel +16
CO isotopologues are common tracers of the bulk molecular gas in extragalactic studies, providing insights into the physical and chemical conditions of the cold molecular gas, a re…
The SWAN view of dense gas in the Whirlpool -- A cloud-scale comparison of N2H+, HCO+, HNC and HCN emission in M51
Sophia K. Stuber, Eva Schinnerer, Antonio Usero +22
Tracing dense molecular gas, the fuel for star formation, is essential for the understanding of the evolution of molecular clouds and star formation processes. We compare the emiss…
The impact of spiral arms on the star formation life cycle
Andrea Romanelli, Mélanie Chevance, J. M. Diederik Kruijssen +18
The matter cycle between gas clouds and stars in galaxies plays a crucial role in regulating galaxy evolution through feedback mechanisms. In turn, the local and global galactic en…
Gaia GraL: Gaia gravitational lens systems IX. Using XGBoost to explore the Gaia Focused Product Release GravLens catalogue
Quentin Petit, Christine Ducourant, Eric Slezak +21
Aims. Quasar strong gravitational lenses are important tools for putting constraints on the dark matter distribution, dark energy contribution, and the Hubble-Lemaitre parameter. W…
