ABSTRACT JWST observations indicate a surprising excess of luminous galaxies at z∼ 10
and above, consistent with efficient conversion of the accreted gas into stars, unlike the …

We present PHANGS–ALMA, the first survey to map CO J= 2→ 1 line emission at∼ 1''∼ 100
pc spatial resolution from a representative sample of 90 nearby (d≲ 20 Mpc) galaxies that lie …

We analyse the first giant molecular cloud (GMC) simulation to follow the formation of
individual stars and their feedback from jets, radiation, winds, and supernovae, using the …

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 …

Giant molecular clouds (GMCs) are the sites of star formation and stellar feedback in
galaxies. Their properties set the initial conditions for star formation and their lifecycles …

One of the key mysteries of star formation is the origin of the stellar initial mass function
(IMF). The IMF is observed to be nearly universal in the Milky Way and its satellites, and …

Young stellar associations hold a star formation record that can persist for millions of years,
revealing the progression of star formation long after the dispersal of the natal cloud. To …

The PHANGS collaboration has been building a reference data set for the multiscale,
multiphase study of star formation and the interstellar medium (ISM) in nearby galaxies. With …

Aims. We extend the analysis of a physical model within the standard cosmology that
robustly predicts a high star-formation efficiency (SFE) in massive galaxies at cosmic dawn …

Stars form in dense, clustered environments, where feedback from newly formed stars
eventually ejects the gas, terminating star formation and leaving behind one or more star …
