A reliable estimate of the molecular gas content in galaxies plays a crucial role in determining their dynamical and star-forming properties. However, H2, the dominant molecular species, is difficult to observe directly, particularly in the…
We use observations of 66 reverberation-measured \Mgii\ quasars (QSOs) in the redshift range $0.36 \leq z \leq 1.686$ -- a subset of the 78 QSOs we previously studied that also have \rfe\ (flux ratio parameter of UV \Feii\ to \Mgii\ that is…
The cosmic-ray ionization rate ($\zeta_2$) is one of the key parameters in star formation, since it regulates the chemical and dynamical evolution of molecular clouds by ionizing molecules and determining the coupling between the magnetic…
