1 CO imaging surveys of nearby galaxies Nario Kuno Nobeyama Radio Observatory

2 CO imaging survey of nearby galaxies Gas distribution & dynamics structures of galaxies Molecular gas Star formation Physical properties of molecular gas Causes of difference of galaxy type Formation mechanism of various structures of galaxies Galaxy evolution

3 CO imaging survey of nearby galaxies Molecular gas distribution and dynamics Molecular gas - Star formation Physical properties of molecular gas Hubble type AGN activity Starburst activity Environmental effects (cluster/isolated) Galaxy interaction Structures – Bar properties – Spiral arm strength

4 CO imaging survey of nearby galaxies Many sample covering various type of galaxies High angular resolution to resolve main structures of galaxies Wide-field imaging to cover whole distribution of molecular gas

5 CO survey of nearby galaxies with interferometer OVRO + NMA (20 galaxies, central region) (Sakamoto et al. 1999a, Sakamoto et al. 1999b, …) BIMA (44 galaxies) – The BIMA CO Survey of Nearby Galaxies (SONG) (Regan et al. 2001, Regan et al. 2002, …) PdBI (25 galaxies, central region) – Molecular Gas in NUclei of Galaxies (NUGA) (Garcia-Burillo, et al. 2003, Combes et al. 2004, …)

6 CO survey of nearby galaxies with single dish telescope NRO 45-m – Nobeyama CO Atlas of Nearby Spiral Galaxies (Kuno et al. 2007, Nakanishi et al. 2006, …) IRAM 30-m – The HERA CO Line Extragalactic Survey (HERACLES) (Leroy et al. 2009, Bigiel et al. 2011, …) JCMT 15-m – JCMT Nearby Galaxy Legacy Survey (NGLS) (Wilson et al. 2009, Warren et al. 2010, …) FCRAO 14m – Virgo spiral galaxy survey (Chung et al. 2009)
