We use the CARMA millimeter interferometer to map the Antennae Galaxies (NGC4038/39), tracing the bulk of the molecular gas via the 12CO(1-0) line and denser molecular gas via the high density transitions HCN(1-0), HCO+(1-0), CS(2-1), and…

Recent studies have indicated that the HCN-to-CO(J=1-0) and HCO+-to-HCN(J=1-0) ratios are significantly different between galaxies with AGN (active galactic nucleus) and SB (starburst) signatures. In order to study the molecular gas…

Supernovae remnants (SNRs) represent a major feedback source from stars on the interstellar medium of galaxies. During the latest stage of supernovae explosions, shock waves produced by the initial blast modify the chemistry of gas and…

The acceleration mechanisms of cosmic rays (CR) in supernova remnants (SNRs) and their associated compact central objects (CCOs) remain an open question in high-energy astrophysics. In this study, we perform a modeling of CR transport and…

We have mapped 20 molecular lines in the Central Molecular Zone (CMZ) around the Galactic Centre, emitting from 85.3 to 93.3 GHz. This work used the 22-m Mopra radio telescope in Australia, equipped with the 8-GHz bandwidth UNSW-MOPS…

Radio surveys of supernova remnants (SNRs) in the Galaxy have uncovered 19 SNRs accompanied by OH maser emission at 1720 MHz. This unusual class of maser sources is suggested to be produced behind a shock front from the expansion of a…
