Massive Star Formation in Spiral Arms and Interarms
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 03 August 2017
Abstract
The CO emission from the almost entire disk of M51 was mapped with the Nobeyama 45-m telescope. Using the high spatial resolution and high sensitivity data, we examine formation mechanisms of massive stars and molecular clouds both in arms and in interarms. The N(H2)/CO ratio is also evaluated in the galaxy.
