The effect of diffuse background on the spatially-resolved Schmidt relation in nearby spiral galaxies
Nimisha Kumari, Mike J Irwin, Bethan L James
The global Schmidt law of star formation provides a power-law relation between the surface densities of star-formation rate (SFR) and gas, and successfully explains plausible scena…
ESA Voyage 2050 white paper: A complete census of the gas phases in and around galaxies, far-UV spectropolarimetry as a prime tool for understanding galaxy evolution and star formation
V. Lebouteiller, C. Gry. H. Yan, P. Richter +18
(abridged) The far-UV wavelength range (912-2000A) provides access to atomic and molecular transitions of many species the interstellar medium (ISM), circumgalactic medium (CGM), a…
Increasing Gender Diversity and Inclusion in Scientific Committees and Related Activities at STScI
Gisella De Rosa, Cristina Oliveira, Camilla Pacifici +27
We present a new initiative by the Women in Astronomy Forum at Space Telescope Science Institute (STScI) to increase gender diversity and inclusion in STScI's scientific committees…
The production and escape of ionizing photons from galaxies over cosmic time (Astro2020 Science White Paper)
Jane R. Rigby, Danielle Berg, Rongmon Bordoloi +10
The ionizing photons produced by massive stars are key actors in galaxy evolution. Ionizing photon production and escape is poorly understood. Improved space-based, spatially-resol…
Mapping Gas Phase Abundances and Enrichment Patterns Across Galaxy Disks
Kathryn Kreckel, Danielle Berg, Guillermo A. Blanc +12
The distribution of gas-phase abundances in galaxy disks encodes the history of nucleosynthesis and transport through the interstellar medium (ISM) over cosmic time. Multi-object a…
Astro2020 Science White Paper: ISM and CGM in external galaxies
V. Lebouteiller, D. Kunth, J. Roman-Duval +4
The wavelength range 912-2000A (hereafter far-UV) provides access to absorption lines of the interstellar medium (ISM), circumgalactic medium (CGM), and intergalactic medium (IGM)…
