PHANGS CO kinematics: disk orientations and rotation curves at 150 pc resolution

Philipp Lang, Sharon E. Meidt, Erik Rosolowsky +24

We present kinematic orientations and high resolution (150 pc) rotation curves for 67 main sequence star-forming galaxies surveyed in CO (2-1) emission by PHANGS-ALMA. Our measurem…

Dynamical Equilibrium in the Molecular ISM in 28 Nearby Star-Forming Galaxies

Jiayi Sun, Adam K. Leroy, Eve C. Ostriker +26

We compare the observed turbulent pressure in molecular gas, , to the required pressure for the interstellar gas to stay in equilibrium in the gravitational potent…

The lifecycle of molecular clouds in nearby star-forming disc galaxies

Mélanie Chevance, J. M. Diederik Kruijssen, Alexander P. S. Hygate +29

It remains a major challenge to derive a theory of cloud-scale ( pc) star formation and feedback, describing how galaxies convert gas into stars as a function of the g…

The headlight cloud in NGC 628: An extreme giant molecular cloud in a typical galaxy disk

Cinthya N. Herrera, Jérôme Pety, Annie Hughes +25

Cloud-scale surveys of molecular gas reveal the link between molecular clouds properties and star formation (SF) across a range of galactic environments. Cloud populations in galax…

12CO and 13CO J=3-2 observations toward N11 in the Large Magellanic Cloud

M. Celis Peña, S. Paron, M. Rubio +2

After 30 Doradus, N11 is the second largest and brightest nebula in the LMC. This large nebula has several OB associations with bright nebulae at its surroundings. N11 was previous…

Pillars of creation amongst destruction: Star formation in molecular clouds near R136 in 30 Doradus

Venu M. Kalari, Monica Rubio, Bruce G. Elmegreen +3

New sensitive CO(2-1) observations of the 30 Doradus region in the Large Magellanic Cloud are presented. We identify a chain of three newly discovered molecular clouds we name KN1,…
