PHANGS: constraining star formation time-scales using the spatial correlations of star clusters and giant molecular clouds

In the hierarchical view of star formation, giant molecular clouds (GMCs) undergo fragmentation to form small-scale structures made up of stars and star clusters. Here we study the connection between young star clusters and cold gas across a range of extragalactic environments by combining the high...

Description
Summary:In the hierarchical view of star formation, giant molecular clouds (GMCs) undergo fragmentation to form small-scale structures made up of stars and star clusters. Here we study the connection between young star clusters and cold gas across a range of extragalactic environments by combining the high resolution (1″) PHANGS-ALMA catalogue of GMCs with the star cluster catalogues from PHANGS-HST.
