Evidence for a Non-Uniform Initial Mass Function in the Local Universe
Gerhardt R. Meurer, O. I. Wong, J. H. Kim +21
Many results in modern astrophysics rest on the notion that the Initial Mass Function (IMF) is universal. Our observations of HI selected galaxies in the light of H-alpha and the f…
Number Counts of GALEX Sources in FUV (1530A) and NUV (2310A) Bands
C. Kevin Xu, Jose Donas, Stephane Arnouts +21
Number Counts of galaxies in two GALEX bands (FUV: 1530A and NUV: 2310A, both in AB magnitudes) are reported. They provide for the first time in the literature homogeneously calibr…
Discovery of six Ly alpha emitters near a radio galaxy at z ~ 5.2
B. P. Venemans, H. J. A. Rottgering, R. A. Overzier +9
We present the results of narrow-band and broad-band imaging with the Very Large Telescope of the field surrounding the radio galaxy TN J0924-2201 at z = 5.2. Fourteen candidate Ly…
Abundances in the Neutral Interstellar Medium of I Zw 18 from FUSE Observations
A. Aloisi, S. Savaglio, T. M. Heckman +3
We report on new FUSE far-UV spectroscopy of the most metal-poor blue compact dwarf galaxy I Zw 18. The new data represent an improvement over previous FUSE spectra by a factor of…
Early-type galaxies in the SDSS. I. The sample
M. Bernardi, R. K. Sheth, J. Annis +7
A sample of nearly 9000 early-type galaxies, in the redshift range 0.01 < z < 0.3, was selected from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey using morphological and spectral criteria. This pa…
Galactic Superwinds Circa 2001
Timothy M. Heckman
In this contribution I summarize our current knowledge of the nature and significance of starburst-driven galactic winds (``superwinds''). Superwinds are complex multiphase outflow…
