报告题目一：Molecular Gas and the Star Formation Process on Cloud Scales in Nearby Galaxies

报告人：Dr. Eva Schinnerer（德国马克斯普朗克天文研究所）

摘要：Star formation is a vital process for stellar mass growth during the evolution of galaxies. Our understanding of where stars form and how their formation is regulated across galactic disks is surprisingly incomplete. Cloud-scale observations that resolve the sites of recent (or future) massive star formation and allow for sampling the time evolution of the star formation process have become possible with instruments such as ALMA, HST, VLT/MUSE and recently JWST. Comprehensive surveys such as PHANGS (Physics at High Angular resolution in Nearby GalaxieS) enabling the study of the molecular gas reservoir, dust and embedded star formation, young stellar clusters and stellar feedback at comparable resolution have provided first robust insights on how the molecular gas—star formation—stellar feedback cycle depends on environment. I will briefly summarize our current understanding of molecular gas properties and the star formation process based on cloud scale observations of nearby galaxies and give a short outlook what a next generation millimeter/submillimeter interferometric facility could bring.
