Published purpose

This grant will support the analysis of a sample of 23 nearby galaxies using data from the Ultraviolet Imaging Telescope (UVIT) on the ASTROSAT satellite. The team will also use maps from the Atacama Large Millimeter/Submillimeter Array (ALMA) and the combined images will provide the highest resolution view into these nearby galaxies. The goal is better understanding how stars form out of cold molecular gas in galaxies.
