Star Formation Rate estimators: [OII]3727 vs. Halpha for local star-forming galaxies
A. Aragon-Salamanca, A. Alonso-Herrero, J. Gallego +4
The [OII]3727 emission line is frequently used as an indicator of the star formation rate (SFR) despite its complex dependence on metallicity and excitation conditions. We have ana…
The [OII]3727 Luminosity Function of the Local Universe
J. Gallego, C. E. Garcia-Dabo, J. Zamorano +2
The measurement of the Star Formation Rate density of the Universe is of prime importance in understanding the formation and evolution of galaxies. The [OII]3727 emission line flux…
Stellar populations in local star-forming galaxies. II.-Recent star formation properties and stellar masses
P. G. Perez-Gonzalez, A. Gil de Paz, J. Zamorano +3
We present the integrated properties of the stellar populations in the Universidad Complutense de Madrid Survey galaxies. Applying the techniques described in the first paper of th…
12CO mapping of the low-metallicity BCD galaxy Mrk86
A. Gil de Paz, S. A. Silich, B. F. Madore +3
We have mapped the 12CO J=1-0 and J=2-1 line emission in Mrk86, one of the most metal-deficient Blue Compact Dwarf galaxies so far detected in 12CO. The 12CO emission is distribute…
A new approach in data reduction: proper handling of random errors and image distortions
N. Cardiel, J. Gorgas, J. Gallego +5
Data reduction procedures are aimed to minimize the impact of data acquisition imperfections on the measurement of data properties with a scientific meaning for the astronomer. To…
