So I've reached the half-way mark of my internship. And what do I have to show for it research wise?
This:
You may oohhhh and aaahhhhhh now.
So the science comes from taking the ratio of the line strength at each position where there is signal in both frequencies. With these line ratios we can deduce the temperature and density of the star forming gas clouds, leading to a better understand of galaxy evolution, especially in starburst galaxies, with respect to chemical composition, stellar birth rates, and distribution of molecular clouds.
Ooooooooooooohhhhhhhhhhhhhh aaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
