Can retired galaxies mimic active galaxies? Clues from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey
G. Stasinska, N. V. Asari, R. Cid Fernandes +5
The classification of galaxies as star forming or active is generally done in the ([O III]/Hbeta, [N II]/Halpha) plane. The Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) has revealed that, in th…
The Star Formation Histories of galaxies: A tour through the STARLIGHT-SDSS database
R. Cid Fernandes, W. Schoenell, J. M. Gomes +6
Retrieving the Star Formation History (SFH) of a galaxy out of its integrated spectrum is the central goal of stellar population synthesis. Recent advances in evolutionary synthesi…
Chemical abundances in six nearby star-forming regions: implications for galactic evolution and planet searches around very young stars
N. C. Santos, C. Melo, D. J. James +3
In this paper we present a study of chemical abundances in six star-forming regions. Stellar parameters and metallicities are derived using high-resolution, high S/N spectra of wea…
