The PHANGS-Hα survey. Ground-based narrow-band imaging of nearby star-forming galaxies

Alessandro Razza, Guillermo A. Blanc, Brent Groves +36

We present PHANGS-Hα, a narrow-band imaging survey that maps Hα emission over a sample of 65 nearby massive star-forming galaxies. The data were obtained using the MPG-ESO 2.2-mete…

Azimuthal offsets in spiral arms of nearby galaxies

Miguel Querejeta, Sharon E. Meidt, Yixian Cao +28

Spiral arms play a central role in disc galaxies, but their dynamical nature remains a long-standing open question. Azimuthal offsets between molecular gas and star formation are e…

Do spiral arms enhance star formation efficiency?

Miguel Querejeta, Adam K. Leroy, Sharon E. Meidt +32

Spiral arms are some of the most spectacular features in disc galaxies, and also present in our own Milky Way. It has been argued that star formation should proceed more efficientl…

The impact of HII regions on Giant Molecular Cloud properties in nearby galaxies sampled by PHANGS ALMA and MUSE

Antoine Zakardjian, Jérôme Pety, Cinthya N. Herrera +36

We identify giant molecular clouds (GMCs) associated with HII regions for a sample of 19 nearby galaxies using catalogs of GMCs and H regions released by the PHANGS-ALMA and PHANGS…

Star Formation Laws and Efficiencies across 80 Nearby Galaxies

Jiayi Sun, Adam K. Leroy, Eve C. Ostriker +37

We measure empirical relationships between the local star formation rate (SFR) and properties of the star-forming molecular gas on 1.5 kpc scales across 80 nearby galaxies. These r…

The PHANGS-JWST Treasury Survey: Star Formation, Feedback, and Dust Physics at High Angular resolution in Nearby GalaxieS

Janice C. Lee, Karin M. Sandstrom, Adam K. Leroy +74

The PHANGS collaboration has been building a reference dataset for the multi-scale, multi-phase study of star formation and the interstellar medium in nearby galaxies. With the suc…
