Structure and Evolution of the Opacity of Spiral Disks
B. W. Holwerda, R. A. González, W. C. Keel +3
The opacity of a spiral disk due to dust absorption influences every measurement we make of it in the UV and optical. Two separate techniques directly measure the total absorption…

Gaps in the cloud cover? Comparing extinction measures in spiral disks
B. W. Holwerda, M. Meyer, M. Regan +11
Dust in galaxies can be mapped by either the FIR/sub-mm emission, the optical or infrared reddening of starlight, or the extinction of a known background source. We compare two dus…

Star Formation Rate Determinations
Daniela Calzetti
I review determinations of star formation rates (SFR) from the ultraviolet to the infrared, in the context of their use for galaxies and galaxy surveys. The mid-infrared SFR indica…
