Shock Excited Molecules in NGC 1266 : ULIRG Conditions at the Center of a Bulge-dominated Galaxy
(2013-12)
We investigate the far infrared (IR) spectrum of NGC 1266, a S0 galaxy that contains a massive reservoir of highly excited molecular gas. Using the Herschel Fourier Transform Spectrometer, we detect the 12CO ladder up to ...
Carbon monoxide in clouds at low metallicity in the dwarf irregular galaxy WLM
(2013-03-27)
Carbon monoxide (CO) is the primary tracer for interstellar clouds where stars form, but it has never been detected in galaxies in which the oxygen abundance relative to hydrogen is less than 20 per cent of that of the ...
CO in late-type galaxies within the central region of Abell 1367
(2013-02)
We present 12CO (J = 1→ 0) and 12CO (J = 2 →1) spectra for 19 bright, late–type galaxies (spirals) in the central region of the galaxy cluster Abell 1367 (z = 0.02) from observations make with the IRAM 30–m telescope. All ...
