Molecular Gas in The Central Kpc of Starbursts and AGN

Abstract

Description

With the recent advent of large interferometric surveys, we can now probe the physical conditions, dynamics, and star-forming properties of molecular gas in the central kpc of starbursts and active galactic nuclei. We present results from the high-resolution (~ 100 pc) interferometric survey of molecular gas in the inner kpc of nearby starbursts (Jogee, Kenney, and Scoville 2001a) and the ongoing multi-transition survey of cold, warm, and dense molecular gas in a broad range of active and inactive galactic nuclei (Jogee, Baker, Sakamoto, and Scoville 2001b).
