Dust Attenuation in UV-selected Starbursts at High Redshift and their Local Counterparts: Implications for the Cosmic Star Formation Rate Density
Roderik Overzier, Tim Heckman, Jing Wang +14
We present a new analysis of the dust obscuration in starburst galaxies at low and high redshift. This study is motivated by our unique sample of the most extreme UV-selected starb…
The GALEX Arecibo SDSS survey: III. Evidence for the Inside-Out Formation of Galactic Disks
Jing Wang, Guinevere Kauffmann, Roderik Overzier +7
We analyze a sample of galaxies with stellar masses greater than and with redshifts in the range for which HI mass measurements are available fro…
An Ultraviolet Spectroscopic Atlas of Local Starbursts and Star-Forming Galaxies: The Legacy of FOS and GHRS
Claus Leitherer, Christy A. Tremonti, Timothy M. Heckman +1
We present 46 rest-frame ultraviolet (UV) spectra of 28 local starburst and star-forming galaxies which were observed with the Faint Object Spectrograph (FOS) and the Goddard High…
ALFALFA HI Data Stacking I. Does the Bulge Quench Ongoing Star Formation in Early-Type Galaxies?
Silvia Fabello, Barbara Catinella, Riccardo Giovanelli +4
We have carried out an HI stacking analysis of a volume-limited sample of ~5000 galaxies with imaging and spectroscopic data from GALEX and the Sloan Digital Sky Survey, which lie…
Optical vs. infrared studies of dusty galaxies and AGN: (I) Nebular emission lines
Vivienne Wild, Brent Groves, Timothy Heckman +6
Optical nebular emission lines are commonly used to estimate the star formation rate of galaxies and the black hole accretion rate of their central active nucleus. The accuracy of…
UGC8802: A Massive Disk Galaxy in Formation
Sean M. Moran, Guinevere Kauffmann, Timothy M. Heckman +11
We report new observations of the galaxy UGC8802 obtained through GASS, the GALEX Arecibo SDSS Survey, which show this galaxy to be in a remarkable evolutionary state. UGC8802 (GAS…
