TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used the IRAM HERACLES survey to study CO emission from 33 nearby spiral galaxies down to very low intensities, using 21 cm line atomic hydrogen (H I) data, mostly from THINGS, to predict the local mean CO velocity based on the mean H I velocity.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors show that the variations of specific star formation rates (sSFRs = SFR/M*) are driven by varying gas fractions and that the hardness of the radiation field, which is proportional to the dust-mass-weighted luminosity (L IR/M dust) and the primary parameter defining the shape of the IR spectral energy distribution, is equivalent to SFE/Z.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors evaluate the consistency between star formation rates (SFRs) inferred from the far ultraviolet (FUV) nonionizing continuum and Hα nebular emission.

TL;DR: In this article, high-resolution observations of CO were used to systematically measure the resolved size-line width, luminosity line width, and luminosity-size, and mass-luminosity relations of GMCs in a variety of extragalactic systems.

TL;DR: In this article, the scaling relations of molecular gas depletion time scale (tdepl) and gas to stellar mass ratio (Mmolgas/M*) of star forming galaxies (SFGs) near the star formation main-sequence with redshift, specific star formation rate (sSFR) and stellar mass (M*) were investigated.
