The Recent Star Formation in NGC 6822: an Ultraviolet Study

Boryana V. Efremova, Luciana Bianchi, David A. Thilker +15

We characterize the star formation in the low-metallicity galaxy NGC 6822 over the past few hundred million years, using GALEX far-UV (FUV, 1344-1786 A) and near-UV (NUV, 1771-2831…

Catalogs of Hot White Dwarfs in the Milky Way from GALEX's Ultraviolet Sky Surveys. Constraining Stellar Evolution

Luciana Bianchi, Boryana Efremova, James Herald +4

We present comprehensive catalogs of hot star candidates in the Milky Way, selected from GALEX far-UV (FUV, 1344-1786 AA) and near-UV (NUV, 1771-2831 AA) imaging. The FUV and NUV p…

Metallicity effects in the spectral classification of O-type stars. Theoretical consideration

N. Markova, L. Bianchi, B. Efremova +1

Based on an exteded grid of NLTE, line blanketed model atmospheres with stellar winds as calculated by means of FASTWIND, we have investigated the change in the strengths of strate…

Extreme UV QSOs

Luciana Bianchi, John B. Hutchings, Boryana Efremova +3

We present a sample of spectroscopically confirmed QSOs with FUV-NUV color (as measured by GALEX photometry) bluer than canonical QSO templates and than the majority of known QSOs.…

Statistical Properties of the GALEX/SDSS matched source catalogs, and classification of the UV sources

Luciana Bianchi, Lino Rodriguez-Merino, Maurice Viton +30

We use the Galaxy Evolution Explorer (GALEX) Medium and All-Sky-Imaging Survey (MIS & AIS) data from the first public data release (GR1), matched to the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (S…

The recent star formation in NGC 6822 from HST imaging

L. Bianchi, B. Efremova

We present HST WFPC2 and STIS imaging of the low metallicity galaxy NGC 6822, performed as part of a study of the young stellar populations in the galaxies of the Local Group. Elev…
