通过消光校正H得到的恒星形成率(SFRs)与密集气体的形成率(通过ASTE望远镜观测到的附近星系中心的12 CO (J= 3-2)发射来追踪)。我们发现,虽然许多观测到的位置是多尘的,因此在H处被大量吸收,但heSFR与稠密气体以施密特定律的形式表现出惊人的相关性,其指数为1.0。还比较了12 CO (J= 1-0)追踪的气体与H消光校正的应用之间的相关性。我们发现稠密的气体产生a
Star formation rates (SFRs) obtained via extinction-corrected H˛ are compared to dense gas, as traced by 12 CO ( J= 3–2) emission at the centers of nearby galaxies, observed with the ASTE telescope. It is found that, although many of the observed positions are dusty, and therefore heavily absorbed at H˛ ,t heSFR shows a striking correlation with dense gas in the form of the Schmidt law with an inde xo f 1.0. The correlation is also compared between gas traced by 12 CO ( J= 1–0) and the application of an H˛ extinction correction. We fin dt hat dense gas produces a
