I. The connection between morphology and stellar mass build-up in nearby star-forming galaxies II. The relation between AGN driven outflows and molecular gas content in galaxies

Simon Flesch & Kolja Tarek Reuter , ARI

I. Recent advancements in integral field spectroscopy enable us to study galaxy integrated findings in the field of galaxy evolution in a spatially resolved way. Morphological effects are especially interesting in that context, since morphology is inherently concerning spatial distributions. In this talk I will present my analysis of the connection between morphology of nearby star-forming galaxies and their stellar mass build-up, using resolved star formation histories compiled by Bertemes et al. II. The formation of stars and evolution of galaxies are crucially dependent on the presence of molecular gas. The MASCOT-Survey determined the amount of gas in 187 galaxies, including 11 active galactic nuclei (AGN). In my study, I investigated the correlation between the amount of molecular gas, measured by MASCOT, and the strength of AGN outflows, with the aim of determining the role of AGN-driven feedback in regulating the molecular gas content of galaxies.
