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…

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons destruction in star-forming regions across 42 nearby galaxies
Oleg V. Egorov, Adam K. Leroy, Karin Sandstrom +30
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are widespread in the interstellar medium (ISM) of Solar metallicity galaxies, where they play a critical role in ISM heating, cooling, and…

Relationships between PAHs, Small Dust Grains, H, and HI in Local Group Dwarf Galaxies NGC 6822 and WLM Using JWST, ALMA, and the VLA
Ryan Chown, Adam K. Leroy, Alberto D. Bolatto +27
We present 0.7-3.3 pc resolution mid-infrared (MIR) JWST images at 7.7 m (F770W) and 21 m (F2100W) covering the main star-forming regions of two of the closest star-forming…
