An optical--near-IR study of a triplet of super star clusters in the starburst core of M82
M. S. Westmoquette, N. Bastian, L. J. Smith +8
We present HST/STIS optical and Gemini/NIFS near-IR IFU spectroscopy, and archival HST imaging of the triplet of super star clusters (A1, A2 and A3) in the core of the M82 starburs…
Star formation sustained by gas accretion
J. Sanchez Almeida, B. G. Elmegreen, C. Munoz-Tunon +1
This paper discusses how cosmic gas accretion controls star formation, and summarizes the physical properties expected for the cosmic gas accreted by galaxies. The paper also colle…
Star Formation in Tadpole Galaxies
Casiana Munoz-Tunon, Jorge Sanchez Almeida, Debra M. Elmegreen +1
Tadpole Galaxies look like a star forming head with a tail structure to the side. They are also named cometaries. In a series of recent works we have discovered a number of issues…
Metallicity inhomogeneities in local star-forming galaxies as sign of recent metal-poor gas accretion
J. Sanchez Almeida, A. B. Morales-Luis, C. Munoz-Tunon +3
We measure the oxygen metallicity of the ionized gas along the major axis of seven dwarf star-forming galaxies. Two of them, SDSSJ1647+21 and SDSSJ2238+14, show 0.5 dex metallicity…
