The lifecycle of molecular clouds in nearby star-forming disc galaxies
Mélanie Chevance, J. M. Diederik Kruijssen, Alexander P. S. Hygate +29
It remains a major challenge to derive a theory of cloud-scale ( pc) star formation and feedback, describing how galaxies convert gas into stars as a function of the g…
The headlight cloud in NGC 628: An extreme giant molecular cloud in a typical galaxy disk
Cinthya N. Herrera, Jérôme Pety, Annie Hughes +25
Cloud-scale surveys of molecular gas reveal the link between molecular clouds properties and star formation (SF) across a range of galactic environments. Cloud populations in galax…
The Gas-Star Formation Cycle in Nearby Star-Forming Galaxies I. Assessment of Multi-scale Variations
Eva Schinnerer, Annie Hughes, Adam Leroy +21
The processes regulating star formation in galaxies are thought to act across a hierarchy of spatial scales. To connect extragalactic star formation relations from global and kpc-s…
Mapping metallicity variations across nearby galaxy disks
K. Kreckel, I. -T. Ho, G. A. Blanc +21
The distribution of metals within a galaxy traces the baryon cycle and the buildup of galactic disks, but the detailed gas phase metallicity distribution remains poorly sampled. We…
Stellar Feedback and Resolved Stellar IFU Spectroscopy in the nearby Spiral Galaxy NGC 300
Anna F. McLeod, J. M. Diederik Kruijssen, Daniel R. Weisz +7
We present MUSE Integral Field Unit (IFU) observations of five individual HII regions in two giant (>100 pc in radius) star-forming complexes in the low-metallicity (~0.33 $Z_{\…
