SUMMARY:The distribution of gas and star formation in M81
DESCRIPTION:The distribution of gas and star formation in M81\nMr. José Ra
 món Sánchez Gallego\n\nIn this talk I will present the first complete 12
 CO J=3-2 map of M81, observed as part of the Nearby Galaxies Legacy Survey
 . We have detected nine regions of significant CO emission located at diff
 erent positions within the spiral arms, and confirmed that the global CO e
 mission in the galaxy is low. Using a new H&alpha; map obtained with the I
 saac Newton Telescope and archival data I will discuss a series of topics 
 including the correlation between the molecular gas and star forming regio
 ns, the CO (3-2)/(1-0) line ratio, and the amount of hydrogen produced in 
 photo-dissociation regions near the locations where CO J=3-2 was detected.
