The Relationship Between Gas Content and Star Formation in Molecule-Rich Spiral Galaxies
Tony Wong, Leo Blitz
We investigate the relationship between HI, H_2, and the star formation rate (SFR) using azimuthally averaged data for seven CO-bright spiral galaxies. Contrary to some earlier stu…
The Density Profile of the Dark Matter Halo of NGC 4605
Alberto D. Bolatto, Joshua D. Simon, Adam Leroy +1
We have obtained ~100 pc resolution CO and ~60 pc resolution Halpha observations of the dwarf spiral galaxy NGC 4605. We use them to derive a high resolution rotation curve and stu…
The BIMA Survey of Nearby Galaxies (BIMA SONG): I. The Radial Distribution of CO Emission in Spiral Galaxies
Michael W. Regan, Michele D. Thornley, Tamara T. Helfer +5
We present the first results of the BIMA Survey of Nearby Galaxies (BIMA SONG), an imaging survey of the CO J=(1-0) emission in 44 nearby spiral galaxies at a typical resolution of…
Local Goup HVCs: Status of the Evidence
Leo Blitz
The evidence for locating the High Velocity Clouds in the Local Group is summarized and evaluated. Recent measurements of the H surface brightness and metallicity of a number of…
