Far-Ultraviolet Observations of Starburst Galaxies with FUSE: Galactic Feedback in the Local Universe
J. P. Grimes, T. M. Heckman, A. Aloisi +6
We have analysed FUSE far-UV spectra of a sample of 16 local starbursts. These galaxies span ranges of almost three orders-of-magnitude in star formation rate and over two orders-o…

Metals in the Neutral Interstellar Medium of Starburst Galaxies
A. Aloisi, T. M. Heckman, C. G. Hoopes +3
Thanks to their proximity, local starbursts are perfectly suited for high-resolution and sensitivity multiwavelength observations aimed to test our ideas about star formation, evol…

Metals in the Neutral Interstellar Medium of Dwarf Star-Forming Galaxies
A. Aloisi, T. M. Heckman, C. G. Hoopes +3
The determination of the metal abundances in the neutral interstellar medium of dwarf star-forming galaxies is a key step in understanding their physical and chemical evolution. Th…
