GALEX Observations of Diffuse UV Radiation at High Spatial Resolution from the Sandage Nebulosity

N. V. Sujatha, Jayant Murthy, Abhay Karnataki +2

Using the GALEX ultraviolet imagers we have observed a region of nebulosity first identified as starlight scattered by interstellar dust by Sandage (1976). Apart from airglow and z…

Spitzer Observations of Star Formation in the Extreme Outer Disk of M83 (NGC5236)

Hui Dong, Daniela Calzetti, Michael Regan +4

Spitzer IRAC observations of two fields in the XUV-disk of M83 have been recently obtained,3R_{HII} away from the center of the galaxy (R_{HII)=6.6 kpc).GALEX UV images have shown…

Lyman alpha emitting galaxies at 0.2 < z < 0.35 from GALEX spectroscopy

Jean-Michel Deharveng, Todd Small, Tom A. Barlow +19

The GALEX (Galaxy Evolution Explorer) spectroscopic survey mode, with a resolution of about 8 A in the FUV (1350 - 1750 A) and about 20 A in the NUV (1950 - 2750 A) is used for a s…

QSOs in the combined SDSS/GALEX database

J. B. Hutchings, L. Bianchi

We discuss selection of QSO candidates from the combined SDSS and GALEX catalogues. We discuss properties of QSOs within the combined sample, and note uncertainties in number count…

Resolved Stellar Populations Constituting Extended UV Disks (XUV-disks) in Nearby Galaxies

D. A. Thilker, L. Bianchi, G. Meurer +11

We describe HST imaging of recent star formation complexes located in the extended UV disk (XUV-disk) component of NGC 5236 (M 83), NGC 5055 (M 63), and NGC 2090. Photometry in fou…

Ultraviolet through Infrared Spectral Energy Distributions from 1000 SDSS Galaxies: Dust Attenuation

Benjamin D. Johnson, David Schiminovich, Mark Seibert +19

The meaningful comparison of models of galaxy evolution to observations is critically dependent on the accurate treatment of dust attenuation. To investigate dust absorption and em…
