Molecular gas and star formation in the Tidal Dwarf Galaxy VCC 2062
(2016-06-01)
The physical mechanisms driving star formation (SF) in galaxies are still not fully understood. Tidal dwarf galaxies (TDGs), made of gas ejected during galaxy interactions, seem to be devoid of dark matter and have a ...
High star formation rates in turbulent atomic-dominated gas in the interacting galaxies IC 2163 and NGC 2207
(2016-05-20)
CO observations of the interacting galaxies IC 2163 and NGC 2207 are combined with HI, Halpha and 24 microns to study the star formation rate (SFR) surface density as a function of the gas surface density. More than half ...
Herschel Spectroscopic Observations of Little Things Dwarf Galaxies
(2016-01-04)
We present far-infrared (FIR) spectral line observations of five galaxies from the Little Things sample: DDO 69, DDO 70, DDO 75, DDO 155, and WLM. While most studies of dwarfs focus on bright systems or starbursts due to ...
