Building on the Archives: Connecting the CN/CO Intensity Ratio with Global Galaxy Properties in Nearby U/LIRGs

We use the CN/CO intensity ratio to obtain the dense gas fraction, f _dense , for a sample of 16 ultraluminous and luminous infrared (IR) galaxies and compare f _dense with a suite of global galaxy properties. We find a significant correlation between f _dense and star formation rate calculated usin...
