Scientific paper

We propose to image the dense molecular gas associated with the star-forming circumnuclear ring (CNR) in the prototypical barred ringed galaxy NGC 1433, building on our successful observations of NGC 7552 in 2005. Our primary science goals include (1) comparing the locations of dense gas clouds with young UV-bright star clusters; (2) looking for an HCN enhancement relative to HCO+ in the nucleus, as has been reported in other Seyferts; and (3) deriving an inner rotation curve to test resonance ring theory. We request observations in H75 and H168 to produce a high-resolution image of the circumnuclear gas.
