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…
GALEX-SDSS Catalogs for Statistical Studies
T. Budavari, S. Heinis, A. S. Szalay +23
We present a detailed study of the Galaxy Evolution Explorer's photometric catalogs with special focus on the statistical properties of the All-sky and Medium Imaging Surveys. We i…
Unusually High Metallicity Host Of The Dark LGRB 051022
J. F. Graham, A. S. Fruchter, L. J. Kewley +5
We present spectroscopy of the host of GRB 051022 with GMOS nod and shuffle on Gemini South and NIRSPEC on Keck II. We determine a metallicity for the host of log(O/H)+12 = 8.77 us…
The Mass-Loss Return From Evolved Stars to the LMC: Empirical Relations for Excess Emission at 8 and 24 μm
Sundar Srinivasan, Margaret Meixner, Claus Leitherer +18
We present empirical relations describing excess emission from evolved stars in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) using data from the SAGE (Surveying the Agents of a Galaxy's Evolut…
The Radio Luminosity Function and Galaxy Evolution in the Coma Cluster
Neal A. Miller, Ann E. Hornschemeier, Bahram Mobasher +4
We investigate the radio luminosity function (RLF) and radio source population for two fields within the Coma cluster of galaxies. Our VLA data reach down to log(L) = 20.23 W/Hz fo…
