Angus Mok Supervisor: Christine Wilson McMaster University Resolved Analysis of the ISM and Star Formation Properties of Spiral Galaxies in Different Environments Angus Mok Supervisor: Christine Wilson McMaster University

Environmental Effects Molecular Gas in Galactic Environments - 2016 Environmental Effects Denser environments dominated by quiescent galaxies (Blanton & Moustakas 2009) HI-deficient galaxies rises towards the centre of clusters (Solanes+ 2001) Possible Mechanisms: Starvation (Larson+ 1980) Ram pressure stripping (Gunn & Gott 1972) Gravitational harassment HI in M81 Group of Galaxies (Yun+ 1994)

Environmental Effects Molecular Gas in Galactic Environments - 2016 Environmental Effects Effects on molecular gas content less clear Virgo spirals are not as H2 deficient as would be expected from their HI deficiencies (Kenny & Young 1989) Recent results suggests some H2 deficiency in Virgo spirals (Fumagalli+ 2009, Boselli+ 2014) NGC 4522 in the Virgo Cluster (HST - http://www.spacetelescope.org/images/heic0911b/)

Molecular Gas in Galactic Environments - 2016 Virgo Cluster Nearest cluster to us, at a distance of ~16.7 Mpc Rich with infalling spiral galaxies Virgo Cluster (APOD - http://apod.nasa.gov/apod/ap110422.html)

Nearby Galaxies Legacy Survey (NGLS) Molecular Gas in Galactic Environments - 2016 Nearby Galaxies Legacy Survey (NGLS) Sample of 155 HI-flux selected galaxies in the nearby universe (Wilson+ 2012) All: Hα, JCMT Some: VLA, Herschel, Spitzer NGC 4567 and 4568 (http://www.sdss.org/ )

Molecular Gas in Galactic Environments - 2016 CO(3-2) Observations Sample of 98 gas-rich spiral galaxies from the NGLS and follow-up surveys Map the CO(3-2) transition using HARP on the JCMT 19 mK (TA*) out to at least D25/2 at 20 km/s 14.5” angular resolution NGC 4567 and 4568, with CO (3-2) contours overlaid

Molecular Gas in Galactic Environments - 2016 VLA HI Observations 30 galaxies D-array (~60” resolution) Pilot VLA program in 2007 (AW701) - 9 spirals Follow-up program (15B-111) - 5 spirals VLA Imaging of Virgo in Atomic Gas (VIVA) Survey (Chung+2009) 16 spirals High resolution

Integrated Galaxy Properties Molecular Gas in Galactic Environments - 2016 Integrated Galaxy Properties 44% of the spiral galaxies are CO detected Use technique of survival analysis to incorporate upper limits Virgo galaxies show an enhancement in their molecular gas content Environment aiding in conversion to H2 Cumulative distribution functions for the 3 environments (Figure 1 from Mok+ 2016)

Integrated Galaxy Properties Molecular Gas in Galactic Environments - 2016 Integrated Galaxy Properties 44% of the spiral galaxies are CO detected Use technique of survival analysis to incorporate upper limits Virgo galaxies show an enhancement in their molecular gas content Environment aiding in conversion to H2 Cumulative distribution functions for the 3 environments (Figure 1 from Mok+ 2016)

Molecular Gas in Galactic Environments - 2016 Gas Depletion Times Combine with Hα star formation rate data (Sánchez-Gallego+ 2012) Longer molecular gas depletion times in the Virgo sample Environmental effects (heating process, pressure, stabilization in disk) No differences found in the HI gas depletion times Cumulative distribution functions for the 3 environments (Figure 2 from Mok+ 2016)

Molecular Gas in Galactic Environments - 2016 Radial Trends Create radial annuli around the center of each galaxy From the HI data, disk size appears to be smaller for Virgo galaxies after normalization by R25 HI radial averages for the galaxies in our sample, normalized by R25 and subdivided by environment

Molecular Gas in Galactic Environments - 2016 Radial Trends (CO) Applied the same process to CO data, including normalization by R25 No signs of a truncation in the H2 disks of Virgo galaxies H2 radial averages for the galaxies in our sample, normalized by R25 and subdivided by environment

Molecular Gas in Galactic Environments - 2016 Next Steps Combine H2 and HI data Create ratio maps to distinguish between different scenarios Incorporate available Hα SFR maps Determine resolved star formation rates and gas depletion times in radial bins Pixel by pixel analysis (KS laws, gas depletion times) Hα map of NGC 4567 and NGC 4568 with CO(3-2) contours overlaid

Molecular Gas in Galactic Environments - 2016 Conclusion Created a large sample of gas-rich nearby spiral galaxies in different environments Enhancement in the molecular gas content and molecular gas depletion times for Virgo galaxies No signs of a truncation in the CO disks for the Virgo galaxies, compared to their HI disks HI moment map of NGC 4567 and NGC 4568 with CO (3-2) contours overlaid
