A Molecular Line Scan in the Hubble Deep Field North: Constraints on the CO Luminosity Function and the Cosmic H2 Density

F. Walter, R. Decarli, M. Sargent +19

We present direct constraints on the CO luminosity function at high redshift and the resulting cosmic evolution of the molecular gas density, (z), based on a blind mole…

A molecular line scan in the Hubble Deep Field North

R. Decarli, F. Walter, C. Carilli +20

We present a molecular line scan in the Hubble Deep Field North (HDF-N) that covers the entire 3mm window (79-115 GHz) using the IRAM Plateau de Bure Interferometer. Our CO redshif…

A Comparative Study of Giant Molecular Clouds in M51, M33 and the Large Magellanic Cloud

Annie Hughes, Sharon E. Meidt, Dario Colombo +9

We compare the properties of giant molecular clouds (GMCs) in M51 identified by the Plateau de Bure Interferometer Whirlpool Arcsecond Survey (PAWS) with GMCs identified in wide-fi…

Gas Kinematics on GMC scales in M51 with PAWS: cloud stabilization through dynamical pressure

Sharon E. Meidt, Eva Schinnerer, Santiago Garcia-Burillo +9

We use the high spatial and spectral resolution of the PAWS CO(1-0) survey of the inner 9 kpc of the iconic spiral galaxy M51 to examine the effect of gas streaming motions on the…

The Plateau de Bure + 30m Arcsecond Whirlpool Survey reveals a thick disk of diffuse molecular gas in the M51 galaxy

J. Pety, E. Schinnerer, A. K. Leroy +9

We present the data of the Plateau de Bure Arcsecond Whirlpool Survey (PAWS), a high spatial and spectral resolution 12CO(1-0) line survey of the inner 10 x 6 kpc of the M51 system…

Probability Distribution Functions OF 12CO(J = 1-0) Brightness and Integrated Intensity in M51: The PAWS View

Annie Hughes, Sharon E. Meidt, Eva Schinnerer +9

We analyse the distribution of CO brightness temperature and integrated intensity in M51 at ~40 pc resolution using new CO data from the Plateau de Bure Arcsecond Whirlpool Survey…
