The Relationship Between Molecular Gas and Star Formation in Low-Mass E/S0 Galaxies
Lisa H. Wei, Stuart N. Vogel, Sheila J. Kannappan +3
We consider the relationship between molecular-gas and star-formation surface densities in 19 morphologically defined E/S0s with stellar mass <~ 4x10^10 M_sun, paying particular at…
The Nature of Starbursts : II. The Duration of Starbursts in Dwarf Galaxies
Kristen B. W. McQuinn, Evan D. Skillman, John M. Cannon +7
The starburst phenomenon can shape the evolution of the host galaxy and the surrounding intergalactic medium. The extent of the evolutionary impact is partly determined by the dura…
The Nature of Starbursts: I. The Star Formation Histories of Eighteen Nearby Starburst Dwarf Galaxies
Kristen B. W. McQuinn, Evan D. Skillman, John M. Cannon +7
We use archival HST observations of resolved stellar populations to derive the star formation histories (SFHs) of 18 nearby starburst dwarf galaxies. In this first paper we present…
