The Properties of Ultraviolet-Luminous Galaxies at the Current Epoch
Timothy M. Heckman, Charles G. Hoopes, Mark Seibert +23
We have used the first matched set of GALEX and SDSS data to investigate the properties of a sample of 74 nearby galaxies with far-ultraviolet luminosities chosen to overlap the lu…
The GALEX-VVDS Measurement of the Evolution of the Far-Ultraviolet Luminosity Density and the Cosmic Star Formation Rate
D. Schiminovich, O. Ilbert, S. Arnouts +10
In a companion paper (Arnouts et al. 2004) we presented new measurements of the galaxy luminosity function at 1500 Angstroms out to z~1 using GALEX-VVDS observations (1039 galaxies…
UV Emission from Stellar Populations within Tidal Tails: Catching the Youngest Galaxies in Formation?
S. G. Neff, D. A. Thilker, M. Seibert +22
New GALEX observations have detected significant FUV (1530 Angstroms) and NUV (2310 Angstroms) emission from stellar substructures within the tidal tails of four ongoing galaxy mer…
The UV Galaxy Luminosity Function in the Local Universe from GALEX Data
Ted K. Wyder, Marie A. Treyer, Bruno Milliard +22
We present the results of a determination of the galaxy luminosity function at ultraviolet wavelengths at redshifts of from GALEX data. We determined the luminosity fun…
UV Morphology and Star Formation in the Tidal Tails of NGC 4038/39
J. E. Hibbard, L. Bianchi, D. A. Thilker +2
We present GALEX FUV (1530 A) and NUV (2310 A) observations of the archetypal merging system NGC 4038/39, ``The Antennae". Both tails are relatively bright in the UV, especially in…
GALEX UV Color-Magnitude Relations and Evidence for Recent Star Formation in Early-type Galaxies
S Yi, SJ Yoon, S Kaviraj +32
We have used the GALEX UV photometric data to construct a first near-ultraviolet (NUV) color-magnitude relation (CMR) for the galaxies pre-classified as early-type by SDSS studies.…
