We present a comprehensive study of the Na I $lambda$5890, 5895 (Na I D) resonant lines in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS, DR7) spectroscopic sample to look for neutral gas outflows in the local galaxies. Individual galaxy spectra are stacked in bins of M${star}$ and SFR to investigate the dependence of galactic wind occurrence and velocity as a function of the galaxy position in the SFR-$M{star}$ plane. In massive galaxies at the high SFR tail we find evidence of a significant blue-shifted Na I D absorption, which we interpret as evidence of neutral outflowing gas. The occurrence of the blue-shifted absorption is observed at the same significance for purely SF galaxies, AGN and composite systems at fixed SFR. In all classes of objects the blue-shift is the largest and the Na I D equivalent width the smallest for face-on galaxies while the absorption feature is at the systemic velocity for edge-on systems. This indicates that the neutral outflow is mostly perpendicular or biconical with respect to the galactic disk. We also compare the kinematics of the neutral gas with the ionized gas phase as traced by the [OIII]$lambda$5007, H$alpha$, [NII]$lambda6548$ and [NII]$lambda6584$ emission lines. Differently for the neutral gas phase, all the emission lines show evidence of perturbed kinematics only in galaxies with a significant level of nuclear activity and, they are independent from the disk inclination. In conclusion, we find that, in the local Universe, galactic winds show two faces which are related to two different ejection mechanisms, namely the neutral outflowing gas phase related to the SF activity along the galaxy disk and the ionized phase related to the AGN feedback. In both the neutral and ionized gas phases, the observed wind velocities suggest that the outflowing gas remains bound to the galaxy with no definitive effect on the gas reservoir.

We present a comprehensive analysis of the multi-phase structure of the interstellar medium (ISM) and the stellar kinematics in the edge-on nearby galaxy UGC 10205 using integral field spectroscopy (IFS) data taken with MEGARA at the GTC. We explore
both the neutral and the ionized gas phases using the interstellar Na ${small I}$ D doublet absorption (LR$-$V set-up, R $sim$ 6000) and the H$alpha$ emission line (HR$-$R set-up, R $sim$ 18000), respectively. The high-resolution data show the complexity of the H$alpha$ emission line profile revealing the detection of up to three kinematically distinct gaseous components. Despite of this fact, a thin disk model is able to reproduce the bulk of the ionized gas motions in the central regions of UGC 10205. The use of asymmetric drift corrections is needed to reconciliate the ionized and the stellar velocity rotation curves. We also report the detection of outflowing neutral gas material blueshifted by $sim$ 87 km s$^{-1}$. The main physical properties that describe the observed outflow are a total mass M$_{out}$ $=$ (4.55 $pm$ 0.06) $times$ 10$^{7}$ M$_{odot}$ and a cold gas mass outflow rate $dot{M}$$_{out}$ $=$ 0.78 $pm$ 0.03 M$_{odot}$ yr$^{-1}$. This work points out the necessity of exploiting high-resolution IFS data to understand the multi-phase components of the ISM and the multiple kinematical components in the central regions of nearby galaxies.
We present a spectroscopic study of the dynamics of the ionized and neutral gas throughout the Lagoon nebula (M8), using VLT/FLAMES data from the Gaia-ESO Survey. We explore the connections between the nebular gas and the stellar population of the as
sociated star cluster NGC6530. We characterize through spectral fitting emission lines of H-alpha, [N II] and [S II] doublets, [O III], and absorption lines of sodium D doublet, using data from the FLAMES/Giraffe and UVES spectrographs, on more than 1000 sightlines towards the entire face of the Lagoon nebula. Gas temperatures are derived from line-width comparisons, densities from the [S II] doublet ratio, and ionization parameter from H-alpha/[N II] ratio. Although doubly-peaked emission profiles are rarely found, line asymmetries often imply multiple velocity components along the line of sight. This is especially true for the sodium absorption, and for the [O III] lines. Spatial maps for density and ionization are derived, and compared to other known properties of the nebula and of its massive stars 9 Sgr, Herschel 36 and HD 165052 which are confirmed to provide most of the ionizing flux. The detailed velocity fields across the nebula show several expanding shells, related to the cluster NGC6530, the O stars 9 Sgr and Herschel 36, and the massive protostar M8East-IR. The origins of kinematical expansion and ionization of the NGC6530 shell appear to be different. We are able to put constrains on the line-of-sight (relative or absolute) distances between some of these objects and the molecular cloud. The large obscuring band running through the middle of the nebula is being compressed by both sides, which might explain its enhanced density. We also find an unexplained large-scale velocity gradient across the entire nebula. At larger distances, the transition from ionized to neutral gas is studied using the sodium lines.
One of the outstanding questions in astronomy today is how gas flows from the circumgalactic medium (CGM) onto the disks of galaxies and then transitions from the diffuse atomic medium into molecular star-forming cores. For studies of the CGM, the Ne
xt Generation Very Large Array (ngVLA) will have the sensitivity and resolution to measure the sizes of the neutral atomic hydrogen (HI) disks of galaxies and complete a census of the HI content around galaxies. Within galaxies, the ngVLA will be able to resolve HI clouds in large numbers of galaxies beyond the Local Group providing measurements of the physical conditions of gas across a wide range of galaxy types. Finally, within our own Milky Way, the ngVLA will provide a dense grid of HI absorption spectra in the cold and warm neutral medium constraining the temperature and density of atomic gas as it transitions into molecular gas. Combined with radio continuum and molecular line data from the ngVLA plus multi-wavelength data from other planned facilities, ngVLA will have a key role in understanding star-formation in the local universe while complementing future studies with the Square Kilometer Array.
The nearby dwarf starburst galaxy NGC 5253 hosts a deeply embedded radio-infrared supernebula excited by thousands of O stars. We have observed this source in the 10.5{mu}m line of S+3 at 3.8 kms-1 spectral and 1.4 spatial resolution, using the high
resolution spectrometer TEXES on the IRTF. The line profile cannot be fit well by a single Gaussian. The best simple fit describes the gas with two Gaussians, one near the galactic velocity with FWHM 33.6 km s-1 and another of similiar strength and FWHM 94 km s-1 centered sim20 km s-1 to the blue. This suggests a model for the supernebula in which gas flows towards us out of the molecular cloud, as in a blister or champagne flow or in the HII regions modelled by Zhu (2006).
Scaling laws of dust, HI gas and metal mass with stellar mass, specific star formation rate and metallicity are crucial to our understanding of the buildup of galaxies through their enrichment with metals and dust. In this work, we analyse how the du
st and metal content varies with specific gas mass ($M_{text{HI}}$/$M_{star}$) across a diverse sample of 423 nearby galaxies. The observed trends are interpreted with a set of Dust and Element evolUtion modelS (DEUS) - incluidng stellar dust production, grain growth, and dust destruction - within a Bayesian framework to enable a rigorous search of the multi-dimensional parameter space. We find that these scaling laws for galaxies with $-1.0lesssim log M_{text{HI}}$/$M_{star}lesssim0$ can be reproduced using closed-box models with high fractions (37-89$%$) of supernova dust surviving a reverse shock, relatively low grain growth efficiencies ($epsilon$=30-40), and long dus lifetimes (1-2,Gyr). The models have present-day dust masses with similar contributions from stellar sources (50-80,$%$) and grain growth (20-50,$%$). Over the entire lifetime of these galaxies, the contribution from stardust ($>$90,$%$) outweighs the fraction of dust grown in the interstellar medium ($<$10$%$). Our results provide an alternative for the chemical evolution models that require extremely low supernova dust production efficiencies and short grain growth timescales to reproduce local scaling laws, and could help solving the conundrum on whether or not grains can grow efficiently in the interstellar medium.
