The primordial helium abundance from updated emissivities
Erik Aver, Keith A. Olive, R. L. Porter +1
Observations of metal-poor extragalactic H II regions allow the determination of the primordial helium abundance, Y_p. The He I emissivities are the foundation of the model of the…
The Contribution of TP-AGB and RHeB Stars to the Near-IR Luminosity of Local Galaxies: Implications for Stellar Mass Measurements of High Redshift Galaxies
J. Melbourne, Benjamin F. Williams, Julianne J. Dalcanton +9
Using high spatial resolution HST WFC3 and ACS imaging of resolved stellar populations, we constrain the contribution of thermally-pulsing asymptotic giant branch (TP-AGB) stars an…
The Star Formation Rate Distribution Function of the Local Universe
M. S. Bothwell, R. C. Kennicutt, B. D. Johnson +6
We present total infrared (IR) and ultraviolet (UV) luminosity functions derived from large representative samples of galaxies at z ~ 0, selected at IR and UV wavelengths from the…
The Calibration of Monochromatic Far-Infrared Star Formation Rate Indicators
D. Calzetti, S. -Y. Wu, S. Hong +23
(Abridged) Spitzer data at 24, 70, and 160 micron and ground-based H-alpha images are analyzed for a sample of 189 nearby star-forming and starburst galaxies to investigate whether…
The Spitzer Local Volume Legacy: Survey Description and Infrared Photometry
D. A. Dale, S. A. Cohen, L. C. Johnson +21
The survey description and the near-, mid-, and far-infrared flux properties are presented for the 258 galaxies in the Local Volume Legacy (LVL). LVL is a Spitzer Space Telescope l…
