Molecular Gas Properties and CO-to-H2 Conversion Factors in the Central Kiloparsec of NGC 3351

Yu-Hsuan Teng, Karin M. Sandstrom, Jiayi Sun +16

The CO-to-H conversion factor ($α_\rm{CO}$) is critical to studying molecular gas and star formation in galaxies. The value of $α_\rm{CO}$ has been found to vary within and bet…

ALMA-IMF I -- Investigating the origin of stellar masses: Introduction to the Large Program and first results

F. Motte, S. Bontemps, T. Csengeri +61

The ALMA-IMF Large Program imaged a total noncontiguous area of 53pc2, covering 15 extreme, nearby protoclusters of the Milky Way. They were selected to span relevant early protocl…

ALMA-IMF II -- investigating the origin of stellar masses: Continuum Images and Data Processing

A. Ginsburg, T. Csengeri, R. Galván-Madrid +49

We present the first data release of the ALMA-IMF Large Program, which covers the 12m-array continuum calibration and imaging. The ALMA-IMF Large Program is a survey of fifteen den…

PHANGS-MUSE: the HII region luminosity function of local star-forming galaxies

Francesco Santoro, Kathryn Kreckel, Francesco Belfiore +30

We use an unprecedented sample of about 23,000 HII regions detected at an average physical resolution of 67pc in the PHANGS-MUSE sample to study the extragalactic HII region Ha lum…

Comparing the pre-SNe feedback and environmental pressures for 6000 HII regions across 19 nearby spiral galaxies

A. T. Barnes, S. C. O. Glover, K. Kreckel +28

The feedback from young stars (i.e. pre-supernova) is thought to play a crucial role in molecular cloud destruction. In this paper, we assess the feedback mechanisms acting within…

Bright, Relatively Isolated Star Clusters in PHANGS-HST Galaxies: Aperture Corrections, Quantitative Morphologies, and Comparison with Synthetic Stellar Population Models

Sinan Deger, Janice C. Lee, Bradley C. Whitmore +14

Using PHANGS-HST NUV-U-B-V-I imaging of 17 nearby spiral galaxies, we study samples of star clusters and stellar associations, visually selected to be bright and relatively isolate…
