Giant Molecular Cloud Formation at the Interface of Colliding Supershells in the Large Magellanic Cloud

Kosuke Fujii, Norikazu Mizuno, J. R. Dawson +8

We investigate the Hi envelope of the young, massive GMCs in the star-forming regions N48 and N49, which are located within the high column density Hi ridge between two kpc-scale s…

ALMA CO Observations of Gamma-Ray Supernova Remnant N132D in the Large Magellanic Cloud: Possible Evidence for Shocked Molecular Clouds Illuminated by Cosmic-Ray Protons

H. Sano, P. P. Plucinsky, A. Bamba +23

N132D is the brightest gamma-ray supernova remnant (SNR) in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC). We carried out CO( = 1-0, 3-2) observations toward the SNR using the Atacama…

Discovery of Shocked Molecular Clouds Associated with the Shell-Type Supernova Remnant RX J0046.57308 in the Small Magellanic Cloud

H. Sano, H. Matsumura, Y. Yamane +25

RX J0046.57308 is a shell-type supernova remnant (SNR) in the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC). We carried out new CO( = 1-0, 3-2) observations toward the SNR using Mopra…

ALMA CO Observations of Supernova Remnant N63A in the Large Magellanic Cloud: Discovery of Dense Molecular Clouds Embedded within Shock-Ionized and Photoionized Nebulae

H. Sano, H. Matsumura, T. Nagaya +19

We carried out new CO( = 1-0, 3-2) observations of a N63A supernova remnant (SNR) from the LMC using ALMA and ASTE. We find three giant molecular clouds toward the northe…

Discovery of Molecular and Atomic Clouds Associated with the Magellanic Superbubble 30 Doradus C

H. Sano, Y. Yamane, F. Voisin +15

We analyzed the 2.6-mm CO and 21-cm HI lines toward the Magellanic superbubble 30 Doradus C, in order to reveal the associated molecular and atomic gas. We uncovered five molecular…

Chemical evolution of the HC3N and N2H+ molecules in dense cores of the Vela C giant molecular cloud complex

Satoshi Ohashi, Ken'ichi Tatematsu, Kosuke Fujii +5

We have observed the HC3N (J=10-9) and N2H+ (J=1-0) lines toward the Vela C molecular clouds with the Mopra 22 m telescope to study chemical characteristics of dense cores. The int…

Enhancement of CO(3-2)/CO(1-0) Ratios and Star Formation Efficiencies in Supergiant HII Regions

Rie E. Miura, Kotaro Kohno, Tomoka Tosaki +13

We present evidence that super giant HII regions (GHRs) and other disk regions of the nearby spiral galaxy, M33, occupy distinct locations in the correlation between molecular gas,…
