Unveiling the gravitationally unstable disc of a massive star-forming galaxy using NOEMA and MUSE
Using new high-resolution data of CO (2-1), H and H obtained with the Northern Extended Millimeter Array (NOEMA) and the Multi-Unit Spectroscopic Explorer (MUSE) at the Very Large Telescope, we have performed a Toomre Q disc stability analysis and studied star formation, gas depletion times and other environmental parameters on sub-kpc scales within the z ∼0 galaxy SDSS J125013.84+073444.5 (LARS 8
