The First Exploration of the Correlations Between WISE 12 μm and CO Emission in Early-type Galaxies

The First Exploration of the Correlations Between WISE 12 μm and CO Emission in Early-type Galaxies

We present the analysis of a comprehensive sample of 352 early-type galaxies using public data, to investigate the correlations between CO luminosities and mid-infrared luminosities observed by Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer. We find strong correlations between both CO (1–0) and CO (2–1) lumino...
