Tracing star formation in galaxies with molecular line and continuum observations


Abstract in English

We report our recent progress on extragalactic spectroscopic and continuum observations, including HCN(J=1-0), HCO$^+$(J=1-0), and CN(N=1-0) imaging surveys of local Seyfert and starburst galaxies using the Nobeyama Millimeter Array, high-J CO observations (J=3-2 observations using the Atacama Submillimeter Telescope Experiment (ASTE) and J=2-1 observations with the Submillimeter Array) of galaxies, and $lambda$ 1.1 mm continuum observations of high-z violent starburst galaxies using the bolometer camera AzTEC mounted on ASTE.
