Molecular Gas in the Intergalactic Medium of Stephan's Quintet
(Astronomical Society of the Pacific, 2003)
Abundant molecular gas in the intergalactic medium of Stephan's Quintet
(2002-11)
Stephan's Quintet (SQ) is a system consisting of at least four interacting galaxies which is well known for its complex dynamical and star formation history. It possesses a rich intergalactic medium (IGM), where hydrogen ...

Star Formation in Tidal Dwarf Galaxies
(Astronomical Society of the Pacific, 2002)
Tidal Dwarf Galaxies (TDGs) are objects presently forming from gas that has been expelled from their parent galaxies during an interaction. We searched for CO emission in a sample of 11 TDGs, of which 8 were detected. The ...
Abundant molecular gas in tidal dwarf galaxies: On-going galaxy formation
(2001-10)
We investigate the process of galaxy formation as can be observed in the only currently forming galaxies { the so-called Tidal Dwarf Galaxies, hereafter TDGs { through observations of the molecular gas detected via its CO ...
