The Size–Linewidth Relation and Signatures of Feedback from Quiescent to Active Star Forming Regions in the LMC

To investigate the effects of stellar feedback on the gravitational state of giant molecular clouds (GMCs), we study ^12 CO and ^13 CO Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array maps of nine GMCs distributed throughout the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC), the nearest star-forming galaxy to our own. W...
