| 11:00 - 12:30 Weekly Seminar Investigating Millimeter Emission in Nearby Galaxies School ASTRONOMY Dust plays a crucial role in the interstellar medium of galaxies, influencing their thermal, chemical, and radiative properties. It absorbs and scatters starlight, leading to extinction and reddening effects, and re-emits the absorbed energy in the far-infrared. Dust also cools the interstellar medium by emitting radiation in infrared and submillimeter wavelengths and acts as a catalyst for molecular hydrogen formation, essential for star formation. The IMEGIN project (Interpreting Millimeter Emission of Galaxies with IRAM and NIKA2) leverages the NIKA2 camera on the IRAM 30m telescope to explore millimeter properties of galaxies, focusing o ... |
