Nearby galaxies in the LOFAR Two-metre Sky Survey IV. A fundamental plane of the radio-SFR relation

V. Heesen, H. W. Edler, M. Brüggen +7

Radio continuum emission has the potential to be an extinction-free tracer of star formation. However, the relation between radio continuum luminosity and star formation rate, the…

The role of young and evolved stars in the heating of dust in local galaxies

Vidhi Tailor, Viviana Casasola, Francesca Pozzi +9

Context. Dust is a fundamental component of the interstellar medium (ISM) and plays a critical role in galaxy evolution. Dust grains influence the ISM by cooling the gas, altering…

Metal-THINGS: gas metallicity gradients in nearby galaxies

Guillermo Valé, Maritza A. Lara-López, Mabel Valerdi +13

This paper explores the gas metallicity gradients in a sample of 25 nearby galaxies using new Integral Field Spectroscopy observations from the Metal-THINGS survey. We derive and s…

Assessing the accuracy of the star formation rate measurements by direct star count in molecular clouds

Sami Dib, Jian Wen Zhou, Sébastien Comerón +8

Star formation estimates based on the counting of YSOs is commonly applied to nearby star-forming regions in the Galaxy. With this method, the SFRs are measured using the counts of…

Connection between feedback processes and the effective yields of EAGLE galaxies

M. C. Zerbo, M. E. De Rossi, M. A. Lara-López +2

The feedback mechanisms triggered by supernova (SN) events and active galactic nuclei (AGN) play a central role in regulating the star formation and shaping galaxy properties. Howe…

The Lockman--SpReSO project. Main properties of infrared selected star-forming galaxies

Mauro González-Otero, Jordi Cepa, Carmen P. Padilla-Torres +18

Methods.We applied distinct selection criteria to attain an SFG sample with minimal AGN contamination. Multiple approaches were used to estimate the intrinsic extinction, SFR and g…
