Estimating the molecular gas mass of low-redshift galaxies from a combination of mid-infrared luminosity and optical properties

Yang Gao, Ting Xiao, Cheng Li +17

We present CO(J=1-0) and/or CO(J=2-1) spectroscopy for 31 galaxies selected from the ongoing MaNGA survey, obtained with multiple telescopes. This sample is combined with CO observ…
