Galaxies within galaxies in the TIMER survey: stellar populations of inner bars are scaled replicas of main bars
Adrian Bittner, Adriana de Lorenzo-Cáceres, Dimitri A. Gadotti +11
Inner bars are frequent structures in the local Universe and thought to substantially influence the nuclear regions of disc galaxies. In this study we explore the structure and dyn…
Distances to PHANGS Galaxies: New Tip of the Red Giant Branch Measurements and Adopted Distances
Gagandeep S. Anand, Janice C. Lee, Schuyler D. Van Dyk +29
PHANGS-HST is an ultraviolet-optical imaging survey of 38 spiral galaxies within ~20 Mpc. Combined with the PHANGS-ALMA, PHANGS-MUSE surveys and other multiwavelength data, the dat…
On the duration of the embedded phase of star formation
Jaeyeon Kim, Mélanie Chevance, J. M. Diederik Kruijssen +23
Feedback from massive stars plays a key role in molecular cloud evolution. After the onset of star formation, the young stellar population is exposed by photoionization, winds, sup…
ALMA Resolves Giant Molecular Clouds in a Tidal Dwarf Galaxy
M. Querejeta, F. Lelli, E. Schinnerer +12
Tidal dwarf galaxies (TDGs) are gravitationally bound condensations of gas and stars formed during galaxy interactions. Here we present multi-configuration ALMA observations of J10…
The kinematics of young and old stellar populations in nuclear rings of MUSE TIMER galaxies
D. Rosado-Belza, J. Falcón-Barroso, J. H. Knapen +12
Studying the stellar kinematics of galaxies is a key tool in the reconstruction of their evolution. However, the current measurements of the stellar kinematics are complicated by s…
Pre-supernova feedback mechanisms drive the destruction of molecular clouds in nearby star-forming disc galaxies
Mélanie Chevance, J. M. Diederik Kruijssen, Mark R. Krumholz +28
It is a major open question which physical processes stop the accretion of gas onto giant molecular clouds (GMCs) and limit the efficiency at which gas is converted into stars with…
The inside-out formation of nuclear discs and the absence of old central spheroids in barred galaxies of the TIMER survey
Adrian Bittner, Patricia Sánchez-Blázquez, Dimitri A. Gadotti +13
The centres of disc galaxies host a variety of structures built via both internal and external processes. In this study, we constrain the formation and evolution of these central s…
Kinematic signatures of nuclear discs and bar-driven secular evolution in nearby galaxies of the MUSE TIMER project
Dimitri A. Gadotti, Adrian Bittner, Jesus Falcon-Barroso +13
The central regions of disc galaxies hold clues to the processes that dominate their formation and evolution. The TIMER project has obtained high signal-to-noise and spatial resolu…
Molecular Gas Properties on Cloud Scales Across the Local Star-forming Galaxy Population
Jiayi Sun, Adam K. Leroy, Eva Schinnerer +34
Using the PHANGS-ALMA CO (2-1) survey, we characterize molecular gas properties on 100 pc scales across 102,778 independent sightlines in 70 nearby galaxies. This yields th…
PHANGS CO kinematics: disk orientations and rotation curves at 150 pc resolution
Philipp Lang, Sharon E. Meidt, Erik Rosolowsky +24
We present kinematic orientations and high resolution (150 pc) rotation curves for 67 main sequence star-forming galaxies surveyed in CO (2-1) emission by PHANGS-ALMA. Our measurem…
Dynamical Equilibrium in the Molecular ISM in 28 Nearby Star-Forming Galaxies
Jiayi Sun, Adam K. Leroy, Eve C. Ostriker +26
We compare the observed turbulent pressure in molecular gas, , to the required pressure for the interstellar gas to stay in equilibrium in the gravitational potent…
Pa, H, and Attenuation in NGC 5194 and NGC 6946
Sarah Kessler, Adam Leroy, Miguel Querejeta +5
We combine Hubble Space Telescope (HST) Paschen (Pa) imaging with ground-based, previously published H maps to estimate the attenuation affecting H, A(H), across th…
A model for the onset of self-gravitation and star formation in molecular gas governed by galactic forces: II. the bottleneck to collapse set by cloud-environment decoupling
Sharon E. Meidt, Simon C. O. Glover, J. M. Diederik Kruijssen +12
In Meidt et al. (2018), we showed that gas kinematics on the scale of individual molecular clouds are not dominated by self-gravity but also track a component that originates with…
