A paper on the structure extraction of NGC253's 4th grade student at Astrophysics Experiment Laboratory has been published on PASJ on NGC253's ALMA data and machine learning.。

NGC253 is one of the galaxies that exist in the vicinity of the galaxy.、It is known for its explosive starbursts。Starburst is considered to be an important phenomenon in considering the evolution of the universe.、It's not clear how it works。

In this study、ALMA in Chile (Atacama Large Millimeter/Submillimeter Array)From data on 150 types of molecular emission lines, radio wave recombination lines and continuous waves obtained by、NMF (Non-negative Matrix fatorization; Non-negative row factor decomposition)The technique known as(Machine Learning,ja)Using、We aimed to extract structures related to star formation。as a result、(1)Distribution of dilute gases、(2)Collisions between molecular clouds(shock)Construction、(3)Starburst Area、(4)Areas that form young stars、(5)We were able to extract the distribution of molecules that exhibit shock from medium excitation and the characteristic emission and continuous lines.。2030As a new method to increase the amount of brightness data due to improved ALMA telescope performance in the past.、Application of NMF is expected。
