Simultaneously modelling far-infrared dust emission and its relation to CO emission in star-forming galaxies
Simultaneously modelling far-infrared dust emission and its relation to CO emission in star-forming galaxies
We present a method to simultaneously model the dust far-infrared spectral energy distribution (SED) and the total infrared $-$ carbon monoxide (CO) integrated intensity $(S_{\rm IR}-I_{\rm CO})$ relationship. The modelling employs a hierarchical Bayesian (HB) technique to estimate the dust surface density, temperature ($T_{\rm eff}$), and spectral index at each …
