Properties of Dense Molecular Gas along the Major Axis of M82

Abstract: Dense gas is important for galaxy evolution and star formation. Optically thin dense-gas tracers, such as isotopologues of HCN, HCO+, etc., are very helpful in diagnosing the excitation conditions of dense molecular gas. However, previous studies of optically thin dense-gas tracers mostly focused on the average properties of galaxies as a whole, due to limited sensitivity and angular resolution. M82, a nearby prototype starburst galaxy, offers a unique case for spatially resolved studies with single-dish teles… Show more
