HST/NICMOS Paschen-alpha Survey of the Galactic Center: Overview

Q. D. Wang, H. Dong, A. Cotera +6

We have recently carried out the first wide-field hydrogen Paschen-alpha line imaging survey of the Galactic Center (GC), using the NICMOS instrument aboard the Hubble Space Telesc…

Star-Forming or Starbursting? The Ultraviolet Conundrum

M. Boquien, D. Calzetti, R. Kennicutt +6

Compared to starburst galaxies, normal star forming galaxies have been shown to display a much larger dispersion of the dust attenuation at fixed reddening through studies of the I…

Comparison of H-alpha and UV Star Formation Rates in the Local Volume: Systematic Discrepancies for Dwarf Galaxies

Janice C. Lee, Armando Gil de Paz, Christy Tremonti +14

(abridged) Using a complete sample of ~300 star-forming galaxies within 11 Mpc, we evaluate the consistency between star formation rates (SFRs) inferred from the far ultraviolet (F…

Radial distribution of stars, gas and dust in SINGS galaxies. II. Derived dust properties

J. C. Muñoz-Mateos, A. Gil de Paz, S. Boissier +13

We present a detailed analysis of the radial distribution of dust properties in the SINGS sample, performed on a set of UV, IR and HI surface brightness profiles, combined with pub…

The Spitzer Local Volume Legacy: Survey Description and Infrared Photometry

D. A. Dale, S. A. Cohen, L. C. Johnson +21

The survey description and the near-, mid-, and far-infrared flux properties are presented for the 258 galaxies in the Local Volume Legacy (LVL). LVL is a Spitzer Space Telescope l…
