The Clowes-Campusano Large Quasar Group Survey: I. GALEX selected sample of LBGs at z1
L. Haberzettl, G. M. Williger, J. T. Lauroesch +10
The nature of galaxy structures on large scales is a key observational prediction for current models of galaxy formation. The SDSS and 2dF galaxy surveys have revealed a number of…
Probing the Intermediate-Age Globular Clusters in NGC 5128 from Ultraviolet Observations
Soo-Chang Rey, Sangmo T. Sohn, Michael A. Beasley +23
We explore the age distribution of the globular cluster (GC) system of the nearby elliptical galaxy NGC 5128 using ultraviolet (UV) photometry from Galaxy Evolution Explorer (GALEX…
An Ultraviolet Study of Star-Forming Regions in M31
Yongbeom Kang, Luciana Bianchi, Soo-Chang Rey
We present a comprehensive study of star-forming (SF) regions in the nearest large spiral galaxy M31. We use GALEX far-UV (1344-1786 Å, FUV) and near-UV (1771-2831 Å, NUV) imaging…
Global star formation revisited
Joseph Silk, Colin Norman
A general treatment of disk star formation is developed from a dissipative multi-phase model, with the dominant dissipation due to cloud collisions. The Schmidt-Kennicutt law emerg…
Structures of Local Galaxies Compared to High Redshift Star-forming Galaxies
Sara M. Petty, Duilia F. de Mello, John S. Gallagher +4
The rest-frame far-ultraviolet (FUV) morphologies of 8 nearby interacting and starburst galaxies (Arp 269, M 82, Mrk 8, NGC 520, NGC 1068, NGC 3079, NGC 3310, NGC 7673) are compare…
Cepheid Calibrations of Modern Type Ia Supernovae:Implications for the Hubble Constant
Adam G. Riess, Lucas Macri, Weidong Li +9
This is the first of two papers reporting measurements from a program to determine the Hubble constant to 5% precision from a refurbished distance ladder. We present new observatio…
