The Role of Pressure in the Structure and Stability of GMCs in the Andromeda Galaxy
We revisit the role of pressure in the structure, stability, and confinement of Giant Molecular Clouds (GMCs) in light of recently published observations and analysis of the GMCs in the Andromeda galaxy (M31). That analysis showed that, in the absence of any external pressure, most GMCs (57% by numb...
