The molecular gas composition in the inner 1 kpc disk of the starburst galaxy M82 resembles that of Galactic Photon Dominated Regions (PDRs). In particular, large abundances of the reactive ions HOC+ and CO+ have been measured in the…

The nucleus of M82 has been mapped in several 3mm and 1mm lines of CN, HCN, C2H, c-C3H2, CH3C2H, HC3N and HOC+ using the IRAM 30m telescope. These species have been purposely selected as good tracers of photon-dominated chemistry. We have…

We present the detection of the reactive ion CO+ towards the prototypical starburst galaxy M82. This is the first secure detection of this short-lived ion in an external galaxy. Values of [CO+]/[HCO+]>0.04 are measured across the inner…

We present the first fully sampled map of 12CO (1-0) emission from M82 covering the entire galaxy. Our map contains a 12 x 15 kpc^2 area. We find that extraplanar CO emission, previously reported at short distances above the galactic plane,…

This paper presents the first high-resolution SiO map made in an external galaxy. The nucleus of the nearby barred spiral NGC253 has been observed simultaneously in the v=0, J=2-1 line of SiO and in the J=1-0 line of H13CO+ with the IRAM…

In this Letter we present the first images of the emission of SiO and H13CO+ in the nucleus of the starburst galaxy M82. Contrary to other molecular species that mainly trace the distribution of the star-forming molecular gas within the…

We present a wide area (~ 8 x 8 kpc), sensitive map of CO (2-1) emission around the nearby starburst galaxy M82. Molecular gas extends far beyond the stellar disk, including emission associated with the well-known outflow as far as 3 kpc…

We mapped 3 mm continuum and line emission from the starburst galaxy M82 using the Combined Array for Research in Millimeter-wave Astronomy. We targeted the HCN, HCO$^{+}$, HNC, CS and HC$_{3}$N lines, but here we focus on the HCN and…

H2CO is one of the most readily detected organic molecules in protoplanetary disks. Yet its distribution and dominant formation pathway(s) remain largely unconstrained. To address these issues, we present ALMA observations of two H2CO lines…

For decades, the nuclear starburst has taken all the limelight in M82 with very little discussion on M82 as a galaxy. The situation is changing over the last decade, with the publication of some important results on the morphology and…

We present the results of the Nobeyama Radio Observatory (NRO) M33 All Disk (30'x30' or 7.3 kpc x 7.3 kpc) Survey of Giant Molecular Clouds (NRO MAGiC) based on 12CO (1-0) observations using the NRO 45-m telescope. The spatial resolution of…

We present high spatial resolution (5.1" x 2.7") OVRO millimeter array observations of HCN (J=1-0) and HCO+ (J=1-0) emission in the inner 3 pc of the galaxy. The HCN and HCO+ emission of the circumnuclear disk (CND) is distributed in a…

We report observations and an analysis of the distribution of HCO+(1-0) and HCO+(4-3) emission in the central 1 kpc star forming region of M82. Comparisons are made with other star formation indicators such as the mm continuum, the…

We have made the first map of CO(J=3-2) emission covering the disk of the edge-on galaxy, NGC~4631, which is known for its spectacular gaseous halo. The strongest emission, which we model with a Gaussian ring,occurs within a radius of 5…

We present a high-resolution (3.6'', 70pc) CO(1-0) mosaic of the molecular gas in M 82 covering an area of 2.5' x 3.5' (2.8kpc x 3.9kpc) obtained with the OVRO millimeter interferometer. The observations reveal the presence of huge amounts…

We have obtained detailed imaging Fabry-Perot observations of the nearby galaxy M82, in order to understand the physical association between the high-velocity outflow and the starburst nucleus. The observed velocities of the emitting gas in…

We present a map of 12CO J=6-5 emission of the nuclear region of the nearby starburst galaxy M82 at resolution 7" taken with the James Clerk Maxwell Telescope (JCMT). This is the highest resolution map yet available at this transition. A…

[Abridged] We present high-resolution optical HST/STIS observations made with two slits crossing four of the brightest starburst clumps in the vicinity of the nucleus of M82. These provide H_alpha kinematics, extinction, electron density…

[Abridged] We present Gemini-N GMOS-IFU observations of the central starburst clumps and inner wind of M82, together with WIYN DensePak IFU observations of the inner 2x0.9kpc of the disk. These cover the emission lines of H$\alpha$, [NII],…

We present interferometric observations of CO J=1-0 emission in the central regions of the edge-on galaxy NGC 4631, known for its extended gaseous halo and its tidal interactions. Previous single-dish observations revealed that almost all…
