Direct Far-Infrared Metal Abundances (FIRA) I: M101
C. Lamarche, J. D. Smith, K. Kreckel +12
Accurately determining gas-phase metal-abundances within galaxies is critical as metals strongly affect the physics of the interstellar medium (ISM). To date, the vast majority of…
Thermal Pressure in the Cold Neutral Medium of Nearby Galaxies
R. Herrera-Camus, A. Bolatto, M. Wolfire +14
Dynamic and thermal processes regulate the structure of the multi-phase interstellar medium (ISM), and ultimately establish how galaxies evolve through star formation. Thus, to con…
Space Telescope and Optical Reverberation Mapping Project VI: reverberating Disk Models for NGC 5548
D. Starkey, Keith Horne, M. M. Fausnaugh +90
We conduct a multiwavelength continuum variability study of the Seyfert 1 galaxy NGC 5548 to investigate the temperature structure of its accretion disk. The 19 overlapping continu…
The Spatially Resolved [CII] Cooling Line Deficit in Galaxies
J. D. T. Smith, Kevin Croxall, Bruce Draine +17
We present [CII] 158um measurements from over 15,000 resolved regions within 54 nearby galaxies of the KINGFISH program to investigate the so-called [CII] "line cooling deficit" lo…
CHAOS I: Direct Chemical Abundances for HII Regions in NGC 628
Danielle A. Berg, Kevin V. Croxall, Evan D. Skillman +3
The CHemical Abundances of Spirals (CHAOS) project leverages the combined power of the Large Binocular Telescope (LBT) with the broad spectral range and sensitivity of the Multi Ob…
Dust continuum emission as a tracer of gas mass in galaxies
Brent A. Groves, Eva Schinnerer, Adam Leroy +8
We use a sample of 36 galaxies from the KINGFISH (Herschel IR), HERACLES (IRAM CO), and THINGS (VLA HI) surveys to study empirical relations between Herschel infrared (IR) luminosi…
