We show the variations of the CO J=2-1/1-0 line ratio (R21) across the barred spiral galaxy M83, using the 46 pc resolution data from ALMA. The R21 map clearly evidences the systematic large-scale variations as a function of galactic…

We report ALMA observations of the most massive (star forming) galaxy in the redshift range 3<z<4 within the whole GOODS-S field. We detect a large elongated structure of molecular gas around the massive primeval galaxy, traced by the…

We revisit the orbital history of the Triangulum galaxy (M33) around the Andromeda galaxy (M31) in view of the recent Gaia Data Release 2 proper motion measurements for both Local Group galaxies. Earlier studies consider highly idealised…
