  • Spitzer's Perspective of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons in Galaxies
    REVIEW ARTICLE https://doi.org/10.1038/s41550-020-1051-1 Spitzer’s perspective of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in galaxies Aigen Li Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) molecules are abundant and widespread throughout the Universe, as revealed by their distinctive set of emission bands at 3.3, 6.2, 7.7, 8.6, 11.3 and 12.7 μm, which are characteristic of their vibrational modes. They are ubiquitously seen in a wide variety of astrophysical regions, ranging from planet-forming disks around young stars to the interstellar medium of the Milky Way and other galaxies out to high redshifts at z ≳ 4. PAHs profoundly influence the thermal budget and chemistry of the interstellar medium by dominating the photoelectric heating of the gas and controlling the ionization balance. Here I review the current state of knowledge of the astrophysics of PAHs, focusing on their observational characteristics obtained from the Spitzer Space Telescope and their diagnostic power for probing the local physical and chemi- cal conditions and processes. Special attention is paid to the spectral properties of PAHs and their variations revealed by the Infrared Spectrograph onboard Spitzer across a much broader range of extragalactic environments (for example, distant galax- ies, early-type galaxies, galactic halos, active galactic nuclei and low-metallicity galaxies) than was previously possible with the Infrared Space Observatory or any other telescope facilities. Also highlighted is the relation between the PAH abundance and the galaxy metallicity established for the first time by Spitzer. n the early 1970s, a new chapter in astrochemistry was opened by some of the longstanding unexplained interstellar phenomena (for Gillett et al.1 who, on the basis of ground observations, detected example, the 2,175 Å extinction bump9,16,19, the diffuse interstellar three prominent emission bands peaking at 8.6, 11.3 and 12.7 μm bands20, the blue and extended red photoluminescence emission21 I 22,23 in the 8–14 μm spectra of two planetary nebulae, NGC 7027 and and the ‘anomalous microwave emission’ ).

Box 9500, 2300 RA Leiden, The Netherlands ABSTRACT We apply a chemical evolution model to investigate the sources and evolution of dust in a sample of 26 high-redshift (z > 1) submillimetre galaxies (SMGs) from the literature, with complete photometry from ultraviolet to the submillimetre. We show that dust produced only by low–intermediate mass stars falls a factor 240 short of the observed dust masses of SMGs, the well-known ‘dust-budget crisis’. Adding an extra source of dust from supernovae can account for the dust mass in 19percent of the SMG sample. Even after accounting for dust produced by supernovae the remaining deficit in the dust mass budget provides support for higher supernova yields, substantial grain growth in the interstellar medium or a top-heavy IMF. Including efficient destruction of dust by supernova shocks increases the tension between our model and observed SMG dust masses.

  • Probing the Baryon Cycle of Galaxies with SPICA Mid- and Far-Infrared Observations
    Publications of the Astronomical Society of Australia (PASA) c Astronomical Society of Australia 2017; published by Cambridge University Press. doi: 10.1017/pas.2017.xxx.

Spinoglio14 Abstract The SPICA mid and far-infrared telescope will address fundamental issues in our understanding of star formation and ISM physics in galaxies. A particular hallmark of SPICA is the outstanding sensitivity enabled by the cold telescope, optimized detectors, and wide instantaneous bandwidth throughout the mid- and far-infrared. The spectroscopic, imaging and polarimetric observations that SPICA will be able to collect will help in clarifying the complex physical mechanisms which underlie the baryon cycle of galaxies. In particular: (i) The access to a large suite of atomic and ionic fine-structure lines for large samples of galaxies will shed light on the origin of the observed spread in star formation rates within and between galaxies. (ii) Observations of HD rotational lines (out to ∼10 Mpc) and fine structure lines such as [C ii] 158 µm (out to ∼100 Mpc) will clarify the main reservoirs of interstellar matter in galaxies, including phases where CO does not emit.

  • Find a Planet Game Object of the Game
    Find a Planet Game Object of the Game: Find the most exoplanets Items needed: Game board, Dice Question List (one copy for the game master) Star list (copies for them and copy with # of planets for the game master) To play: At the start of each turn, a player must first answer a question. If they answer correctly, they can roll their die and move forward the number of spaces shown. If they land on a special space, they must follow the directions for that space. The first person to reach the finish line gets to observe 3 additional planets. The second player to reach the finish line gets to observe 2 additional planets. The third player to reach the finish line gets to observe 1 additional planet. Players finishing after this point do not observe additional planets. 55 Spaces of the Game Board: 19 regular spaces(no special instructions or symbols) 15 Observing spaces (solar system icon) 6 Move ahead spaces (1 or 2 stars on the space) 10 Telescope Time spaces (telescope icon) 5 Challenge spaces (symbol based on challenge) Observing Space: If you land on an observing space, you have the opportunity to observe a star and see if it has planets. You choose a star from the list to observe. The game master will tell you how many planets you detect. Move Ahead Spaces: If you land on a space with one or two stars on it, you move ahead on the board one space for every star. Telescope Time Spaces: If you land on a space with a telescope, you have to apply for and be granted research time on a telescope before you can proceed.

  • The Dust Content of Galaxies from Z= 0 to Z= 9
    Mon. Not. R. Astron. Soc. 000, 000{000 (0000) Printed June 21, 2017 (MN LATEX style file v2.2) The dust content of galaxies from z = 0 to z = 9 Gerg¨oPopping1?, Rachel S. Somerville2;3, and Maud Galametz1 1European Southern Observatory, Karl-Schwarzschild-Strasse 2, 85748, Garching, Germany 2Department of Physics and Astronomy, Rutgers University, 136 Frelinghuysen Road, Piscataway, NJ 08854, USA 3Center for Computational Astrophysics, 160 5th Ave NY NY June 21, 2017 ABSTRACT We study the dust content of galaxies from z = 0 to z = 9 in semi-analytic models of galaxy formation that include new recipes to track the production and destruction of dust. We include condensation of dust in stellar ejecta, the growth of dust in the interstellar medium (ISM), the destruction of dust by supernovae and in the hot halo, and dusty winds and inflows. The rate of dust growth in the ISM depends on the metallicity and density of molecular clouds. Our fiducial model reproduces the relation between dust mass and stellar mass from z = 0 to z = 7, the number 8:3 density of galaxies with dust masses less than 10 M , and the cosmic density of dust at z = 0. The model accounts for the double power-law trend between dust-to- gas (DTG) ratio and gas-phase metallicity of local galaxies and the relation between DTG ratio and stellar mass. The dominant mode of dust formation is dust growth 7 in the ISM, except for galaxies with M∗ < 10 M , where condensation of dust in supernova ejecta dominates. The dust-to-metal ratio of galaxies depends on the gas- phase metallicity, unlike what is typically assumed in cosmological simulations.
