NGC253 near-infrared H_2_ emission

Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)

Because of its large angular size and proximity to the Milky Way, NGC 253, an archetypal starburst galaxy, provides an excellent laboratory to study the intricacies of this intense episode of star formation.

Description

We aim to characterize the excitation mechanisms driving the emission in NGC 253. Specifically we aim to distinguish between shock excitation and ultraviolet (UV) excitation as the dominant driving mechanism, using Br{gamma}, H_2_ and [FeII] as diagnostic emission line tracers.
