We present a focused study of radially-resolved varying PAH emission in the low-luminosity AGN-host NGC 4138 using deep Spitzer/IRS spectral maps. Using new model PAH spectra, we i…
Extragalactic Magnetism with SOFIA (SALSA Legacy Program). VII. A Tomographic View of Far-infrared and Radio Polarimetric Observations through MHD Simulations of Galaxies
Sergio Martin-Alvarez, Enrique Lopez-Rodriguez, Tara Dacunha +17
The structure of magnetic fields in galaxies remains poorly constrained, despite the importance of magnetism in the evolution of galaxies. Radio synchrotron and far-infrared (FIR)…
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…

Thermal Pressure in the Cold Neutral Medium of Nearby Galaxies
R. Herrera-Camus, A. Bolatto, M. Wolfire +14
Dynamic and thermal processes regulate the structure of the multi-phase interstellar medium (ISM), and ultimately establish how galaxies evolve through star formation. Thus, to con…
A comprehensive search for stellar bowshock nebulae in the Milky Way: a catalog of 709 mid-infrared selected candidates

We identify 709 arc-shaped mid-infrared nebula in 24 micron Spitzer Space Telescope or 22 micron Wide Field Infrared Explorer surveys of the Galactic Plane as probable dusty inters…
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…
Cool dust heating and temperature mixing in nearby star-forming galaxies
L. K. Hunt, B. T. Draine, S. Bianchi +20
