A Connection between Star Formation in Nuclear Rings and their Host Galaxies
Lisa M. Mazzuca, Johan H. Knapen, Sylvain Veilleux +1
We present results from a photometric H-alpha survey of 22 nuclear rings, aiming to provide insight into their star formation properties, including age distribution, dynamical time…
Star formation and stellar populations across nuclear rings in galaxies
M. Sarzi, E. L. Allard, J. H. Knapen +1
(Abridged) We present a study of the optical spectra of a sample of eight star-forming nuclear rings and the nuclei of their host galaxies. The spectra were obtained with the ISIS…
Star formation in the central regions of galaxies
J. H. Knapen, E. L. Allard, L. M. Mazzuca +2
Massive star formation in the central regions of spiral galaxies plays an important role in the dynamical and secular evolution of their hosts. Here, we summarise a number of recen…
Massive star formation in the central regions of spiral galaxies
J. H. Knapen, L. M. Mazzuca, T. Boeker +4
Context: The morphology of massive star formation in the central regions of galaxies is an important tracer of the dynamical processes that govern the evolution of disk, bulge, and…
Age-dating a star-burst with Gemini/CIRPASS observations of the core of M83
R. G. Sharp, I. R. Parry, S. D. Ryder +2
We present preliminary results from a set of near-IR integral field spectroscopic observations of the central, star-burst, regions of the barred spiral galaxy M83, obtained with CI…
