Page 1: M51 Environments - uni-heidelberg.de · varying vertical offset (number density of 1 GMCs in a given environment). This suggests a dominant mechanism of cloud formation (gravitational

Properties of Giant Molecular Clouds in M51, M33 and LMC

M51 EnvironmentsLocal Group Galaxies

Cloud properties function of M51 environment

Different gas organization in M51

No correlation between radius and velocity dispersion

Different H2 surface density of GMCs

between galaxies and within M51
