Direct Far-Infrared Metal Abundances (FIRA) I: M101
C. Lamarche, J. D. Smith, K. Kreckel +12
Accurately determining gas-phase metal-abundances within galaxies is critical as metals strongly affect the physics of the interstellar medium (ISM). To date, the vast majority of…
Massive Star Cluster Formation and Destruction in Luminous Infrared Galaxies in GOALS II: An ACS/WFC3 Survey of Nearby LIRGs
Sean Linden, Aaron Evans, Kirsten Larson +14
We present the results of a Hubble Space Telescope WFC3 near-UV and ACS/WFC optical study into the star cluster populations of 10 luminous and ultra-luminous infrared galaxies (U/L…
The Dependence of the Hierarchical Distribution of Star Clusters on Galactic Environment
Shyam H. Menon, Kathryn Grasha, Bruce G. Elmegreen +15
We use the angular Two Point Correlation Function (TPCF) to investigate the hierarchical distribution of young star clusters in 12 local (3--18 Mpc) star-forming galaxies using sta…
A hard X-ray view of Luminous and Ultra-luminous Infrared Galaxies in GOALS: I - AGN obscuration along the merger sequence
C. Ricci, G. C. Privon, R. W. Pfeifle +25
The merger of two or more galaxies can enhance the inflow of material from galactic scales into the close environments of Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN), obscuring and feeding the su…
A Comparison between Nuclear Ring Star Formation in LIRGs and Normal Galaxies with the Very Large Array
Y. Song, S. T. Linden, A. S. Evans +16
Nuclear rings are excellent laboratories for studying intense star formation. We present results from a study of nuclear star-forming rings in five nearby normal galaxies from the…
Revisiting Attenuation Curves: the Case of NGC 3351
Daniela Calzetti, Andrew J. Battisti, Irene Shivaei +14
Multi-wavelength images from the farUV (~0.15 micron) to the sub-millimeter of the central region of the galaxy NGC 3351 are analyzed to constrain its stellar populations and dust…
CON-quest: Searching for the most obscured galaxy nuclei
N. Falstad, S. Aalto, S. König +28
Some luminous and ultraluminous infrared galaxies (LIRGs and ULIRGs) host extremely compact and dusty nuclei. The intense infrared radiation arising from warm dust in these sources…
