Resolved Measurements of the CO-to-H Conversion Factor in 37 Nearby Galaxies

I-Da Chiang, Karin M. Sandstrom, Jeremy Chastenet +6

We measure the CO-to-H conversion factor () in 37 galaxies at 2~kpc resolution, using dust surface density inferred from far-infrared emission as a tracer of the…

JWST Reveals Star Formation Across a Spiral Arm in M33

J. Peltonen, Erik Rosolowsky, Thomas G. Williams +13

Young stellar objects (YSOs) are the gold standard for tracing star formation in galaxies but have been unobservable beyond the Milky Way and Magellanic Clouds. But that all change…

A Two-Component Probability Distribution Function Describes the mid-IR Emission from the Disks of Star-Forming Galaxies

Debosmita Pathak, Adam K. Leroy, Todd A. Thompson +28

High-resolution JWST-MIRI images of nearby spiral galaxies reveal emission with complex substructures that trace dust heated both by massive young stars and the diffuse interstella…

Resolved low-J CO excitation at 190 parsec resolution across NGC 2903 and NGC 3627

J. S. den Brok, A. K. Leroy, A. Usero +14

The low- rotational transitions of CO are commonly used to trace the distribution of molecular gas in galaxies. Their ratios are sensitive to excitation and physical cond…
