PHANGS–JWST First Results: Rapid Evolution of Star Formation in the Central Molecular Gas Ring of NGC 1365

Large-scale bars can fuel galaxy centers with molecular gas, often leading to the development of dense ringlike structures where intense star formation occurs, forming a very different environment compared to galactic disks. We pair ∼0.″3 (30 pc) resolution new JWST/MIRI imaging with archival ALMA C...
