FOREVER22: Insights into star formation and clustering properties of protoclusters from simulations and JWST

Kana Morokuma-Matsui, Hidenobu Yajima, Makito Abe

Using cosmological hydrodynamic simulations with radiative transfer, we investigate star formation and overdensity () in Coma-type cluster progenitors from to 6. Our simu…

NGC 1436: the making of a lenticular galaxy in the Fornax cluster

Alessandro Loni, Paolo Serra, Marc Sarzi +25

We study the evolutionary path of the Fornax cluster galaxy NGC1436, which is known to be currently transitioning from a spiral into a lenticular morphology. This galaxy hosts a…

Revisiting the Dragonfly Galaxy I. High-resolution ALMA and VLA Observations of the Radio Hotspots in a Hyper-luminous Infrared Galaxy at

Yuxing Zhong, Akio K. Inoue, Yuma Sugahara +4

Radio-loud active galactic nuclei (RLAGNs) are rare among AGN populations. Lacking high-resolution and high-frequency observations, their structure and evolution stages are not wel…

CO Excitation and its Connection to Star Formation at 200 pc in NGC 1365

Fumi Egusa, Yulong Gao, Kana Morokuma-Matsui +2

We report high resolution 2" ~ 200 pc mappings of the central region of the nearby barred spiral galaxy NGC 1365 in the CO(1--0) and CO(2--1) emission lines. The 2--1/1--0 ratio of…

Eventful Evolution of Giant Molecular Clouds in Dynamically Evolving Spiral Arms

Junichi Baba, Kana Morokuma-Matsui, Takayuki R. Saitoh

The formation and evolution of giant molecular clouds (GMCs) in spiral galaxies have been investigated in the traditional framework of the combined quasi-stationary density wave an…

CO Multi-line Imaging of Nearby Galaxies (COMING): I. Physical properties of molecular gas in the barred spiral galaxy NGC 2903

Kazuyuki Muraoka, Kazuo Sorai, Nario Kuno +16

We present simultaneous mappings of J=1-0 emission of 12CO, 13CO, and C18O molecules toward the whole disk (8' x 5' or 20.8 kpc x 13.0 kpc) of the nearby barred spiral galaxy NGC 2…
