The properties and kinematics of HCN emission across the closest starburst galaxy NGC 253 observed with ALMA

Ivana Beslic, Ashley T. Barnes, Frank Bigiel +21

Studying molecular gas in nearby galaxies using hydrogen cyanide (HCN) as a tracer for higher densities than CO emission still poses a significant challenge. Even though several ga…

The ALMaQUEST Survey XII: Dense Molecular Gas as traced by HCN and HCO in Green Valley Galaxies

Lihwai Lin, Hsi-An Pan, Sara L. Ellison +11

We present ALMA observations of two dense gas tracers, HCN(1-0) and HCO(1-0), for three galaxies in the green valley and two galaxies on the star-forming main sequence with c…

JWST Observations of Starbursts: Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbon Emission at the Base of the M 82 Galactic Wind

Alberto D. Bolatto, Rebecca C. Levy, Elizabeth Tarantino +37

We present new observations of the central 1 kpc of the M 82 starburst obtained with the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) near-infrared camera (NIRCam) instrument at a resolution…

Hidden Gems on a Ring: Infant Massive Clusters and Their Formation Timeline Unveiled by ALMA, HST, and JWST in NGC 3351

Jiayi Sun, Hao He, Kyle Batschkun +38

We study young massive clusters (YMCs) in their embedded "infant" phase with ALMA, HST, and JWST observations targeting the central starburst ring in NGC…

Resolved low-J CO excitation at 190 parsec resolution across NGC 2903 and NGC 3627

J. S. den Brok, A. K. Leroy, A. Usero +14

The low- rotational transitions of CO are commonly used to trace the distribution of molecular gas in galaxies. Their ratios are sensitive to excitation and physical cond…

VERTICO and IllustrisTNG: The spatially resolved effects of environment on galactic gas

Adam R. H. Stevens, Toby Brown, Benedikt Diemer +15

It has been shown in previous publications that the TNG100 simulation quantitatively reproduces the observed reduction in each of the total atomic and total molecular hydrogen gas…
