Star Formation in NGC 5194 (M51a). II. The Spatially-Resolved Star Formation Law
Robert C. Kennicutt, Daniela Calzetti, Fabian Walter +20
We have studied the relationship between the star formation rate (SFR) surface density and gas surface density in the spiral galaxy M51a (NGC 5194), using multi-wavelength data obt…
Warm molecular hydrogen in the Spitzer SINGS galaxy sample
H. Roussel, G. Helou, D. J. Hollenbach +12
(simplified) Results on the properties of warm H2 in 57 normal galaxies are derived from H2 rotational transitions, obtained as part of SINGS. This study extends previous extragala…
The Calibration of Mid-Infrared Star Formation Rate Indicators
D. Calzetti, R. C. Kennicutt, C. W. Engelbracht +25
With the goal of investigating the degree to which the mid-infrared emission traces the star formation rate (SFR), we analyze Spitzer 8 um and 24 um data of star-forming regions in…
Dust Masses, PAH Abundances, and Starlight Intensities in the SINGS Galaxy Sample
B. T. Draine, D. A. Dale, G. Bendo +17
Physical dust models are presented for 65 galaxies in the SINGS survey that are strongly detected in the four IRAC bands and three MIPS bands. For each galaxy we estimate (1) the t…
Dust and Atomic Gas in Dwarf Irregular Galaxies of the M81 Group: The SINGS and THINGS view
F. Walter, J. Cannon, H. Roussel +22
[abridged] We present observations of the dust and atomic gas phase in seven dwarf irregular galaxies of the M81 group from the SINGS and THINGS surveys. The Spitzer observations p…
