We investigate the spiral galaxy NGC 5394, which is strongly interacting with the larger spiral NGC 5395 (the pair is Arp 84), using optical integral-field spectroscopy from the CALIFA survey. Spatially-resolved equivalent-widths,…

Aperture synthesis observations of CO(J=1-0) emission and near-infrared broad-band photometry of the non-barred Seyfert galaxy NGC 5033 (D = 18.7 Mpc) were performed. Our 3".9 x 3".6 resolution CO observations reveal a perturbed…

We have performed high resolution CO(2-1), CO(1-0), HCN(1-0) and HCO+(1-0) observations of a "low star formation efficiency starburst galaxy" NGC 4527 with the Nobeyama Millimeter Array. The integrated intensity ratios, CO(2-1)/CO(1-0) and…

The Nobeyama Millimeter Array (NMA) has been used to make aperture synthesis CO(1-0) observations of the post-starburst galaxy NGC 5195. CO(1-0) and HCN(1-0) observations of NGC 5195 using the Nobeyama 45 m telescope are also presented.…

We present new SOFIA [CII] and ALMA CO(J=1-0) observations of the nearby asymmetric barred spiral galaxy NGC 7479. The data, which cover the whole bar of the galaxy and the counter-arms visible in the radio continuum, are analyzed in…

We have studied the molecular gas in the vicinity of low-luminosity active galactic nuclei (AGNs) in three bulge-less spiral galaxies: NGC 1042, NGC 4178, and NGC 4395. The (1-0) and (2-1) transitions of gaseous carbon monoxide (CO) are…

We present high-resolution CO, HCN, and 13CO maps of the inner arcminute of NGC 1068 made with the BIMA interferometer. Several features appear in the CO map which have not previously been observed: (1) a firm detection of CO line emission…

Eight dwarf starburst galaxies have been observed with the Caltech Submillimeter Observatory (CSO) telescope in the CO J= 3 - 2 transition. The galaxies observed are He 2-10, NGC 5253, NGC 1569, NGC 3077, Haro 2, Haro 3, II Zw 40 and Mrk…

We present CO(1-0) and CO(2-1) Swedish-ESO Submillimetre Telescope (SEST) observations of the barred spiral galaxy M83 (NGC5236). The maps cover the entire optical disk. The CO emission is strongly peaked toward the nucleus, which breaks up…

We present the first interferometric evidence of CO(1-0) emission in the intragroup starburst (IGS) region of HCG~92 (Stephan's Quintet). BIMA's large primary beam covers fully both the IGS region and the dominant group member galaxy…

The edge-on Sc galaxy NGC 5907 has been observed in the 12CO(1-0)-line emission using the Nobeyama 45-m telescope. The radial density distribution between 2 and 13 kpc is well represented by a superposition of an exponential-law disk of…

We study the molecular gas content and distribution in the Coma cluster spiral galaxy NGC 4848. Plateau de Bure interferometric CO(1-0) observations reveal a lopsided H_2 distribution with an off-center secondary maximum coincident with the…

We carried out $^{12}$CO(J = 1 -0) observations toward bar and arm regions of strongly barred galaxies, NGC 1300 and NGC 5383, with the Nobeyama 45-m radio telescope (beamsize of 1-2 kpc in the galaxies). The aim of the observations is to…

We present new molecular gas maps of NGC5195 (alternatively known as M51b) from the Combined Array for Research in Millimeter Astronomy (CARMA), including 12CO(1-0), 13CO(1-0), CN(1-0), and CS(2-1). NGC5195 has also been detected in 3mm…

The central star-forming regions in three blue compact dwarf galaxies (He 2-10, NGC 5253, and II Zw 40) were observed in the 340 GHz (880 micron) band at 5 arcsec resolution with the Submillimetre Array (SMA). Continuum emission associated…

We present our high-resolution ($0^{\prime\prime}.15\times0^{\prime\prime}.13$, $\sim$34 pc) observations of the CO(6-5) line emission, which probes the warm and dense molecular gas, and the 434 $\mu$m dust continuum emission in the nuclear…

High resolution OVRO aperture synthesis maps of the 12CO 1-0 emission in the `Medusa' galaxy merger (NGC4194) reveal the molecular emission being surprisingly extended. It is distributed on a total scale of 25$''$ (4.7 kpc) - despite the…

Mergers of galaxies are an important mode for galaxy evolution because they serve as an efficient trigger of powerful starbursts. However, observational studies of the molecular gas properties during their early stages are scarce. We…

Revealing the properties of molecular gas in starburst galaxies is key to understand the process of star formation across cosmic history. In this paper, we present our recent high-resolution ($\sim1''$ or 50 pc) ALMA observations of the…
