Mid-Infrared Colors Vary with Galactic Environment: Contrasting Star-Forming Disks, Young Centers, and Quiescent Star-Formation Deserts
Debosmita Pathak, Karin M. Sandstrom, Adam K. Leroy +27
We present pc-resolution JWST/MIRI and NIRCam measurements of mid-infrared (mid-IR) color variations in the diffuse interstellar medium (ISM) of 71 nearby star-forming…
The PHANGS-AstroSat Atlas of Nearby Star Forming Galaxies
Hamid Hassani, Erik Rosolowsky, Eric W. Koch +29
We present the Physics at High Angular resolution in Nearby GalaxieS (PHANGS)-AstroSat atlas, which contains ultraviolet imaging of 31 nearby star-forming galaxies captured by the…
From gas to stars along the spiral wave: CO, HCN, and star formation variations across the spiral arms in NGC 4321 and M51
Minou Greve, Lukas Neumann, Mallory Thorp +17
Molecular clouds form stars from the interstellar medium via gravitational collapse, following a sequence from low-density gas to high-density cores and eventually the formation of…
Uncovering the multi-scale structure of dust distribution in nearby galaxies
E. Tanchon, M. Boquien, J. Chastenet +18
High-resolution JWST-MIRI images now allow us to resolve in great detail the multi-scale nature of the emission in nearby star-forming galaxies, from compact star-forming regions t…
The lifetime of 100,000 molecular clouds in the nearby Universe
Z. Bazzi, M. I. N. Kobayashi, D. Colombo +25
Multiple mechanisms are proposed for the formation of giant molecular clouds (GMCs), from gravitational free-fall caused by self-gravity to stellar feedback-driven gas compression.…
Surveying the Whirlpool at Arcseconds with NOEMA (SWAN). IV. Extent of active galactic nucleus feedback on the interstellar medium
Mallory D. Thorp, Antonio Usero, Frank Bigiel +19
Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) are intertwined with galaxy evolution, injecting energy into the interstellar medium (ISM) that could regulate star formation as a galaxy evolves. Howe…
