Two Orders of Magnitude Variation in the Star Formation Efficiency Across the Pre-Merger Galaxy NGC 2276
Neven Tomicic, Annie Hughes, Kathryn Kreckel +7
We present the first spatially resolved (~0.5 kpc) measurements of the molecular gas depletion time across the disk of the interacting spiral galaxy NGC\,2276, a system…
Do Spectroscopic Dense Gas Fractions Track Molecular Cloud Surface Densities?
Molly J. Gallagher, Adam K. Leroy, Frank Bigiel +22
We use ALMA and IRAM 30-m telescope data to investigate the relationship between the spectroscopically-traced dense gas fraction and the cloud-scale (120 pc) molecular gas surface…
Inner bars also buckle. The MUSE TIMER view of the double-barred galaxy NGC 1291
J. Mendez-Abreu, A. de Lorenzo-Caceres, D. A. Gadotti +8
Double bars are thought to be important features for secular evolution in the central regions of galaxies. However, observational evidence about their origin and evolution is still…
Time Inference with MUSE in Extragalactic Rings (TIMER): Properties of the Survey and High-Level Data Products
Dimitri A. Gadotti, Patricia Sánchez-Blázquez, Jesús Falcón-Barroso +14
The Time Inference with MUSE in Extragalactic Rings (TIMER) project is a survey with the VLT-MUSE integral-field spectrograph of 24 nearby barred galaxies with prominent central st…
A 50 pc scale view of star formation efficiency across NGC 628
K. Kreckel, C. Faesi, J. M. D. Kruijssen +16
Star formation is a multi-scale process that requires tracing cloud formation and stellar feedback within the local (<kpc) and global galaxy environment. We present first results f…
The Star Formation Efficiency per Free Fall Time in Nearby Galaxies
Dyas Utomo, Jiayi Sun, Adam K. Leroy +16
We estimate the star formation efficiency per gravitational free fall time, , from observations of nearby galaxies with resolution matched to the typical size of a Gian…
Formation of S0 galaxies through mergers. Morphological properties: tidal relics, lenses, ovals, and other inner components
M. C. Eliche-Moral, C. Rodriguez-Perez, A. Borlaff +2
Major mergers are popularly considered too destructive to produce the relaxed regular structures and the morphological inner components (ICs) usually observed in lenticular (S0) ga…
Cloud-Scale Molecular Gas Properties in 15 Nearby Galaxies
Jiayi Sun, Adam K. Leroy, Andreas Schruba +16
We measure the velocity dispersion, , and surface density, , of the molecular gas in nearby galaxies from CO spectral line cubes with spatial resolution - pc, matche…
