Kinematics of Extremely Metal-poor Galaxies: Evidence for Stellar Feedback
A. Olmo-Garcia, J. Sanchez Almeida, C. Munoz-Tunon +5
The extremely metal-poor (XMP) galaxies analyzed in a previous paper have large star-forming regions with a metallicity lower than the rest of the galaxy. Such a chemical inhomogen…
The (dark) halo-to-stellar mass ratio in the Spitzer Survey of Stellar Structure in Galaxies (SG)
Simón Díaz-García, Heikki Salo, Eija Laurikainen +1
We use 3.6 m photometry for 1154 disk galaxies () in the Spitzer Survey of Stellar Structure in Galaxies (SG, Sheth et al. 2010) to obtain the stellar compon…
Ocular Shock Front in the Colliding Galaxy IC 2163
Michele Kaufman, Bruce G. Elmegreen, Curtis Struck +5
ALMA observations in the CO 1 - 0 line of the interacting galaxies IC 2163 and NGC 2207 at 2" x 1.5" resolution reveal how the encounter drives gas to pile up in narrow, ~ 1 kpc wi…
Hubble Space Telescope Observations of Accretion-Induced Star Formation in the Tadpole Galaxy Kiso 5639
Debra Meloy Elmegreen, Bruce G. Elmegreen, Jorge Sanchez Almeida +6
The tadpole galaxy Kiso 5639 has a slowly rotating disk with a drop in metallicity at its star-forming head, suggesting that star formation was triggered by the accretion of metal-…
High star formation rates in turbulent atomic-dominated gas in the interacting galaxies IC 2163 and NGC 2207
Bruce G. Elmegreen, Michele Kaufman, Frederic Bournaud +4
CO observations of the interacting galaxies IC 2163 and NGC 2207 are combined with HI, Halpha and 24 microns to study the star formation rate (SFR) surface density as a function of…
The Kennicutt-Schmidt Relation in Extremely Metal-Poor Dwarf Galaxies
M. E. Filho, J. Sánchez Almeida, R. Amorín +3
The Kennicutt-Schmidt (KS) relation between the gas mass and star formation rate (SFR) describes the star formation regulation in disk galaxies. It is a function of gas metallicity…
