Bridging Galaxy Dynamics and Baryon Efficiency of 40 EDGE-CALIFA galaxies

Veselina Kalinova, Dario Colombo, Erik Rosolowsky +1

We apply the Jeans Axisymmetric Multi-Gaussian Expansion method to the stellar kinematic maps of 40 Sa-Sd EDGE-CALIFA galaxies and derive their circular velocity curves (CVCs). The…

The road toward a full, high resolution Molecular Cloud catalog of the Galaxy

Dario Colombo, Erik Rosolowsky, Adam Ginsburg +2

The statistical description of Giant Molecular Cloud (GMC) properties relies heavily on the performance of automatic identification algorithms, which are often seriously affected b…

Graph-based interpretation of the Molecular Interstellar Medium Segmentation

Dario Colombo, Erik Rosolowsky, Adam Ginsburg +2

We present a generalization of the Giant Molecular Cloud (GMC) identification problem based on cluster analysis. The method we designed, SCIMES (Spectral Clustering for Interstella…

Gravitational torques imply molecular gas inflow towards the nucleus of M51

M. Querejeta, S. Meidt, E. Schinnerer +10

The transport of gas towards the centre of galaxies is critical for black hole feeding and, indirectly, it can control active galactic nucleus (AGN) feedback. We have quantified th…

Towards a new classification of galaxies: principal component analysis of CALIFA circular velocity curves

Veselina Kalinova, Dario Colombo, Erik Rosolowsky +16

We present a galaxy classification system for 238 (E1-Sdm) CALIFA (Calar Alto Legacy Integral Field Area) galaxies based on the shapes and amplitudes of their circular velocity cur…

Short GMC lifetimes: an observational estimate with the PdBI Arcsecond Whirlpool Survey (PAWS)

Sharon E. Meidt, Annie Hughes, Clare L. Dobbs +10

We describe and execute a novel approach to observationally estimate the lifetimes of giant molecular clouds (GMCs). We focus on the cloud population between the two main spiral ar…
