1 Hunt for Molecules in Local Universe Galaxies Santiago GARCIA-BURILLO Observatorio Astronómico Nacional (OAN)-Spain Hunt for Molecules, November 19-20, 2005, Paris, France

2 ISM properties in SBs and AGN Spectacular energies injected in gas reservoirs of SB and AGN through radiation fields(UV, X-rays) shocks and cosmic rays modify: -Physical properties of molecular gas -Chemistry of molecular gas Molecular Gas Chemistry in Starbursts (SBs) and Active Galactic Nuclei (AGNs) Science driver of an ongoing IRAM survey of SBs and AGN : ´to go beyond CO maps’ ‘team’=(Garcia-Burillo, Usero, Fuente, Gracia, Planesas, Boone, Tacconi, Schinnerer, Aalto…) High sensitivity+resolution required: 30m (see also pioneering work of Mauersberger, Henkel, Huttemeister et al) and PdBure interferometer (the main focus here!).

3 Evolutionary trends in SB can be tracked down by observation of different chemical tracers I/ ONSET OF THE NUCLEAR STARBURST : gas infall driven by density waves and/or tidal forces. II/ MASSIVE STAR FORMATION BURSTS: Young Stellar Objects and first SN explosions III/ BIPOLAR GIANT OUTFLOW : gas plane breaks out due to blast waves of SN remnants. PHASES Gas compression, HI  H 2, cloud-cloud collisions driving large-scale SHOCKS. PROCESSES UV field from massive stars create HII regions and PDR locally in disk. SHOCKS in YSO in disk XDR when AGN in disk. Strong UV fields create giant PDR in disk Expansion of gas heated by SN entrains neutral gas into halo driving SHOCKS PDR / SHOCKS in halo? Tracking down Galaxy Evolution through Chemistry Energetic Processes in SB & AGN (intense UV/X Radiation, Shocks,Cosmic Rays...)

4 Need of higher resolution--->Interferometer maps Large-Scale Shocks in Galaxies

5 First high-resolution SiO image of a galaxy, made with PdB interferometer. NGC253: barred spiral with nuclear SB=region I. Widespread SiO emission (v=0,J=2-1) over 600pc- disk (regions I + II :X(SiO)  10 -10 -10 -9 )--->beyond the nuclear starburst (region I). II Region II: coincides with bar resonance (ILR): -- --->large-scale shocks induced by density waves in the disk García-Burillo et al. 2000 NGC253 3mm-contSiO H 13 CO + I

6 Usero, García-Burillo et al. 2005, A&A, submitted Molecular gas distribution shaped by the bar: SiO emission along northern spiral arm + nuclear ring. SiO extends beyond the radiocontinuum thermal emission -> shocks are not powered by on-going star formation! Left: SiO integrated intensity (contours) on 3.5mm RC (color) PdBI maps. Right: H 13 CO + (contours) on SiO (color) PdBI maps. SiO-to- H 13 CO + integrated intensity ratio.  X(SiO)  = (2-7)  10 -10 (nuclear ring) to (1-4)  10 -9 (northern spiral arm).

7 Turbulence of shocked gas is enhanced compared to the quiescent gas. Left: H 13 CO + (contours) on SiO (color) PdBI maps. Right: SiO and H 13 CO + position-velocity diagrams. A fraction of kinetic energy cascades down to smaller scales. Shocks arise in a turbulent clumpy medium. IC342 Large-Scale Shocks in Galaxies Usero, García-Burillo et al. 2005, A&A, submitted -->large-scale shocks in IC342 are driven by density waves: X(SiO) largest at x 1 /x 2 orbit crossing-- >cloud cloud collisions enhanced. SiO kinematics

8 PdBI maps show SiO emission extends out of galaxy plane! Two features with X(SiO)  (2-4)x 10 -10 : -a/ SiO chimney. -b/ SiO supershell. supershell SiO chimney: Filament of 500pc size X(SiO)  (2-4)x10 -10 M(H 2 )  6x10 6 M  SiO supershell: Created by supercluster of young stars. M(H 2 )  1.6x10 7 M  SiO map (contours) on 4.8GHz continuum image (grey) from Wills et al 1999 Large-Scale Shocks in Galaxies M82 García-Burillo et al. 2001 chimney SiO ->large-scale shocks in the disk-halo interface: building up the gaseous halo

NeII contours(Achtermann & Lacy 1995) on HCO map (grey) -->M82 disk is a giant PDR of 600 pc size (Mao et al 2000, García-Burillo et al 2002; Fuente et al 2005) PDR Chemistry in Galaxies M82 HCO contours(García-Burillo et al 2002) on CO map (grey; Weiss et al 2001) García-Burillo et al. 2002

13 Molecular Gas Chemistry in ULIRGs ULIRGs Gracia, García-Burillo, Planesas et al. 2005, in prep Ultraluminous Infrared Galaxies (ULIRGs, i.e., L IR (>10 12 Lo ): extreme starbursts and/or embedded AGNs? Puzzle: L CO not correlated with L IR (Solomon et al. 1997). Gao & Solomon (2004ab) show fraction of dense gas (L HCN /L CO ) is correlated with L IR --> starburst origin for ULIRGs!?. Our HCO + survey of LIGs and ULIGs (Gracia et al. 2005) show that HCO + /CO is fairly constant as a function of L IR !! -->at odds with the picture drawn from HCN. Probing dense gas in ULIRGs L HCN(1-0) / L CO(1-0) L HCO+(1-0) / L CO(1-0) The HCN view The HCO + view Which one is ‘‘wrong’’?

14 Molecular Gas Chemistry in ULIRGs ULIRGs Gracia, García-Burillo, Planesas et al. 2005, in prep Is HCN an unbiased tracer of dense gas in ULIRGs? ‘Chemistry’ is key to understand what lurks inside ULIRGs! L HCN(1-0) / L HCO+(1-0) Infrared pumping of HCN lines-->higher I(HCN) XDR-driven chemistry in embedded AGNs-->enhancement of X(HCN) hot-core driven chemistry in starbursts-->higher X(HCN) Unexpected correlation with LIR! Potential bias of HCN

24 Shock Chemistry in NGC253 Strong non-circular motions modelled as gas response to bar ‘Parallelogram signature’: ring II = outer Inner Lindblad Resonance (oILR) where orbit crowding and large-scale shocks are expected. The average value of X(SiO) is high: >10 -10, i.e. an order of magnitude above PDR standards. X(SiO) increases in outer region II, reaching  10 -9. Large-scale shocks driven by DW resonances efficiently enhance SiO abundances.
