UV and FIR selected star-forming galaxies at z=0: differences and overlaps

C. Kevin Xu, Veronique Buat, Jorge Iglesias-Páramo +22

We study two samples of local galaxies, one is UV (GALEX) selected and the other FIR (IRAS) selected, to address the question whether UV and FIR surveys see the two sides ('bright'…
