Observations that resolve nearby galaxies into individual regions across multiple phases of
the gas–star formation feedback “matter cycle” have provided a sharp new view of molecular …

We present the PHANGS-MUSE survey, a programme that uses the MUSE integral field
spectrograph at the ESO VLT to map 19 massive (9.4< log (M⋆/M⊙)< 11.0) nearby (D≲ 20 …

The processes of star formation and feedback, regulating the cycle of matter between gas
and stars on the scales of giant molecular clouds (GMCs;∼ 100 pc), play a major role in …

We use integral field spectroscopy from the PHANGS–MUSE survey, which resolves the
ionised interstellar medium structure at∼ 50 pc resolution in 19 nearby spiral galaxies, to …

Ionized nebulae provide critical insights into the conditions of the interstellar medium (ISM).
Their bright emission lines enable the measurement of physical properties, such as the gas …

Aims. The complexity of star formation at the physical scale of molecular clouds is not yet
fully understood. We investigate the mechanisms regulating the formation of stars in different …

We use an unprecedented sample of about 23 000 H II regions detected at an average
physical resolution of 67 pc in the PHANGS–MUSE sample to study the extragalactic H II …

The CO-to-H 2 conversion factor (α CO) is central to measuring the amount and properties of
molecular gas. It is known to vary with environmental conditions, and previous studies have …

The interstellar medium (ISM) comprises gases at different temperatures and densities,
including ionized, atomic and molecular species, and dust particles. The neutral ISM is …

Context. Star formation and stellar feedback are interlinked processes that redistribute
energy, turbulence, and material throughout galaxies. Because young and massive stars …
