Comparing [CII], HI, and CO dynamics of nearby galaxies
W. J. G. de Blok, F. Walter, J. -D. T Smith +12
The HI and CO components of the interstellar medium (ISM) are usually used to derive the dynamical mass M_dyn of nearby galaxies. Both components become too faint to be used as a t…
Towards universal hybrid star formation rate estimators
M. Boquien, R. Kennicutt, D. Calzetti +13
To compute the SFR of galaxies from the rest-frame UV it is essential to take into account the obscuration by dust. To do so, one of the most popular methods consists in combining…
An Atlas of Galaxy Spectral Energy Distributions from the Ultraviolet to the Mid-Infrared
Michael J. I. Brown, John Moustakas, J. -D. T. Smith +6
We present an atlas of 129 spectral energy distributions for nearby galaxies, with wavelength coverage spanning from the UV to the mid-infrared. Our atlas spans a broad range of ga…
Herschel-SPIRE-Fourier Transform Spectroscopy of the nearby spiral galaxy IC342
D. Rigopoulou, P. D. Hurley, B. M. Swinyard +9
We present observations of the nearby spiral galaxy IC342 with the Herschel Spectral and Photometric Imaging Receiver (SPIRE) Fourier Transform Spectrometer. The spectral range aff…
Modeling Dust and Starlight in Galaxies Observed by Spitzer and Herschel: NGC 628 and NGC 6946
G. Aniano, B. T. Draine, D. Calzetti +26
We characterize the dust in NGC628 and NGC6946, two nearby spiral galaxies in the KINGFISH sample. With data from 3.6um to 500um, dust models are strongly constrained. Using the Dr…
A Study of Heating and Cooling of the ISM in NGC 1097 with Herschel-PACS and Spitzer-IRS
P. Beirao, L. Armus, G. Helou +38
NGC 1097 is a nearby Seyfert 1 galaxy with a bright circumnuclear starburst ring, a strong large-scale bar and an active nucleus. We present a detailed study of the spatial variati…
Probing the Star Formation History and Initial Mass Function of the z~2.5 Lensed Galaxy SMM J163554.2+661225 with Herschel
Keely D. Finkelstein, Casey Papovich, Steven L. Finkelstein +6
We present the analysis of Herschel SPIRE far-infrared (FIR) observations of the z = 2.515 lensed galaxy SMM J163554.2+661225. Combining new 250, 350, and 500 micron observations w…
Local Luminous Infrared Galaxies. I. Spatially resolved observations with Spitzer/IRS
Miguel Pereira-Santaella, Almudena Alonso-Herrero, George H. Rieke +5
We present results from the Spitzer/IRS spectral mapping observations of 15 local luminous infrared galaxies (LIRGs). In this paper we investigate the spatial variations of the mid…
A Spitzer Unbiased Ultradeep Spectroscopic Survey
B. Bertincourt, G. Helou, P. Appleton +9
We carried out an unbiased, spectroscopic survey using the low-resolution module of the infrared spectrograph (IRS) on board Spitzer targeting two 2.6 square arcminute regions in t…
Local Luminous Infrared Galaxies: Spatially resolved mid-infrared observations with Spitzer/IRS
Almudena Alonso-Herrero, Miguel Pereira-Santaella, George H. Rieke +5
Luminous Infrared (IR) Galaxies (LIRGs) are an important cosmological class of galaxies as they are the main contributors to the co-moving star formation rate density of the univer…
The Extreme Star Formation Activity of Arp299 Revealed by Spitzer IRS Spectral Mapping
Almudena Alonso-Herrero, George H. Rieke, Luis Colina +6
We present Spitzer/IRS spectral mapping observations of the luminous infrared galaxy (LIRG) Arp299 (IC694 + NGC3690) covering the central 45arcsec ~ 9kpc. The integrated mid-IR spe…
Spatially Resolved Ultraviolet, H-alpha, Infrared, and Radio Star Formation in M81
K. D. Gordon, P. G. Perez-Gonzalez, K. A. Misselt +26
We present Multiband Imaging Photometer for Spitzer (MIPS) observations of M81 at 24, 70, and 160 micron. The grand design nature of M81 is clearly seen, showing two well resolved…
