Comparing the Locations of Supernovae to CO (2-1) Emission in their Host Galaxies

Ness Mayker Chen, Adam K. Leroy, Laura A. Lopez +19

We measure the molecular gas environment near recent ( yr old) supernovae (SNe) using or pc resolution CO (2-1) maps from the PHANGS-ALMA survey of nearb…

PHANGS: Constraining Star Formation Timescales Using the Spatial Correlations of Star Clusters and Giant Molecular Clouds

Jordan A. Turner, Daniel A. Dale, James Lilly +22

In the hierarchical view of star formation, giant molecular gas clouds (GMCs) undergo fragmentation to form small-scale structures made up of stars and star clusters. Here we study…

Molecular Cloud Populations in the Context of Their Host Galaxy Environments: A Multiwavelength Perspective

Jiayi Sun, Adam K. Leroy, Erik Rosolowsky +35

We present a rich, multiwavelength, multiscale database built around the PHANGS-ALMA CO(2-1) survey and ancillary data. We use this database to present the distributions of mol…

PHANGS-ALMA: Arcsecond CO(2-1) Imaging of Nearby Star-Forming Galaxies

Adam K. Leroy, Eva Schinnerer, Annie Hughes +69

We present PHANGS-ALMA, the first survey to map CO J=2-1 line emission at ~1" ~ 100pc spatial resolution from a representative sample of 90 nearby (d<~20 Mpc) galaxies that lie on…

Fiery Cores: Bursty and Smooth Star Formation Distributions across Galaxy Centers in Cosmological Zoom-in Simulations

Matthew E. Orr, H Perry Hatchfield, Cara Battersby +7

We present an analysis of the kpc core regions of seven simulated Milky Way mass galaxies, from the FIRE-2 (Feedback in Realistic Environments) cosmological zoom-in…

Reproducing the CO-to-H conversion factor in cosmological simulations of Milky Way-mass galaxies

Laura C. Keating, Alexander J. Richings, Norman Murray +8

We present models of CO(1-0) emission from Milky Way-mass galaxies at redshift zero in the FIRE-2 cosmological zoom-in simulations. We calculate the molecular abundances by post-pr…
