The Starburst-AGN connection: Implications for the Unification of Seyferts
Rosa M. Gonzalez Delgado
Observations at ultraviolet, optical and near-infrared wavelengths have shown the existence of recent star formation in the nuclear regions of Seyfert 2 (Sy2) galaxies that suggest…
Clusters in extragalactic HII regions and their modelling
Rosa M. Gonzalez Delgado
This review deals with properties of very young (< 10-20 Myr) stellar clusters which are in the nebular phase and are embedded in photoionized regions (classical extragalactic HII…
Young and Intermediate Stellar population in Seyfert 2 galaxies
Rosa M. Gonzalez Delgado, Timothy Heckman, Claus Leitherer
We present and discuss near-ultraviolet and optical ground-based spectra of the 20 brightest Seyfert 2 nuclei, and HST ultraviolet images and ultraviolet spectroscopy for a few of…
Dating Starburst and Post-Starburst Galaxies
Rosa M. Gonzalez Delgado
Stellar population models to predict the H Balmer and HeI lines in absorption are presented. Models are computed for burst and continuous star formation. It is found that the Balme…
The massive Stellar Content in Starburst Galaxies and its Impact on Galaxy Evolution
Rosa M. Gonzalez Delgado
Starburst galaxies are powered by massive stars. These stars dominate the heating and enrichment with heavy elements of the interstellar medium, gas out of which new stars form. Th…
