The link between star formation and gas in nearby galaxies

How galaxies form their stars has been extensively studied but the role of the galactic gas content and the efficiency of its conversion into stars remain to be fully understood. Here the author presents a data-driven statistical analysis that reduces potential biases related to non-detections to qu...

The link between star formation and gas in nearby galaxies
description How galaxies form their stars has been extensively studied but the role of the galactic gas content and the efficiency of its conversion into stars remain to be fully understood. Here the author presents a data-driven statistical analysis that reduces potential biases related to non-detections to quantify the link between star formation, molecular, and neutral gas in nearby galaxies.
