Characterizing the Molecular Gas in Infrared Bright Galaxies with CARMA
Katherine Alatalo, Andreea O. Petric, Lauranne Lanz +20
We present the CO(1-0) maps of 28 infrared-bright galaxies from the Great Observatories All-Sky Luminous Infrared Galaxy Survey (GOALS) taken with the Combined Array for Research i…
Spinning Bar and a Star-formation Inefficient Repertoire: Turbulence in Hickson Compact Group NGC7674
Diane M. Salim, Katherine Alatalo, Christoph Federrath +2
The physics regulating star formation (SF) in Hickson Compact Groups (HCG) has thus far been difficult to describe, due to their unique kinematic properties. In this study we expan…
On the effective turbulence driving mode of molecular clouds formed in disc galaxies
Keitaro Jin, Diane M. Salim, Christoph Federrath +3
We determine the physical properties and turbulence driving mode of molecular clouds formed in numerical simulations of a Milky Way-type disc galaxy with parsec-scale resolution. T…
The SAMI Galaxy Survey: a new method to estimate molecular gas surface densities from star formation rates
Christoph Federrath, Diane M. Salim, Anne M. Medling +16
Stars form in cold molecular clouds. However, molecular gas is difficult to observe because the most abundant molecule (H2) lacks a permanent dipole moment. Rotational transitions…
A universal, turbulence-regulated star formation law: from Milky Way clouds to high-redshift disk and starburst galaxies
Diane M. Salim, Christoph Federrath, Lisa J. Kewley
Whilst the star formation rate (SFR) of molecular clouds and galaxies is key in understanding galaxy evolution, the physical processes which determine the SFR remain unclear. This…
