Non-circular Gas Kinematics and Star Formation in the Ringed Galaxy NGC 4736
Tony Wong, Leo Blitz
We analyze the gas kinematics and star formation properties of the nearby RSab galaxy NGC 4736 using interferometric and single-dish CO(1-0) data and previously published Halpha an…
Molecular Clouds (a review)
Leo Blitz, Jonathan P. Williams
We review the progress made in understanding molecular cloud formation and evolution toward star formation since the first Crete conference in 1990. It now seems clear that molecul…
The Structure and Evolution of Molecular Clouds: from Clumps to Cores to the IMF
Jonathan P. Williams, Leo Blitz, Christopher F. McKee
We review the progress that has been made in observing and analyzing molecular cloud structure in recent years. Structures are self-similar over a wide range of scales with similar…
High Velocity Clouds: the Missing Link
Leo Blitz, David N. Spergel, Peter J. Teuben +1
Hierarchical structure formation models predict the existence of large numbers of low velocity dispersion dark halos. Galaxy surveys find far fewer galaxies than predicted by analy…
