Chronos and KAIROS: MOSFIRE observations of post-starburst galaxies in z ∼ 1 clusters and groups [PDF]
We present an exploration of ∼500 spectroscopically confirmed galaxies in and around two large-scale structures (LSSs) at z ∼ 1 drawn from the Observations of Redshift Evolution in Large Scale Environments survey, an ongoing, wide-field photometric and ...

The History of Starburst Galaxies [PDF]
Dusty galaxies with luminosities in excess of 10^11 solar luminosities have been detected out to redshifts of about unity by the Infrared Space Observatory (ISO), and to higher redshifts using millimetre(mm)- and submm-wave cameras on ground-based telescopes.

Gasdynamics and Starbursts in Interacting Galaxies [PDF]
The onset of gaseous inflows and central activity in interacting galaxies is driven largely by induced bars in the host galaxies. The stability of galaxies against growing bar modes is a direct function of their structural properties — galaxies with central bulges or low disk surface densities are more stable against central starbursts than are ...

RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN STAR FORMATION RATE AND BLACK HOLE ACCRETION AT z = 2: THE DIFFERENT CONTRIBUTIONS IN QUIESCENT, NORMAL, AND STARBURST GALAXIES [PDF]
We investigate the co-evolution of the black hole accretion rate (BHAR) and the star formation rate (SFR) in 1.5 < z < 2.5 ?> galaxies displaying a greater diversity of star-forming properties compared to previous studies.

The Dust Content and Opacity of Actively Star-forming Galaxies [PDF]
We present far-infrared (FIR) photometry at 150 and 205 μm of eight low-redshift starburst galaxies obtained with the Infrared Space Observatory (ISO) ISOPHOT.

HIGH-J CO VERSUS FAR-INFRARED RELATIONS IN NORMAL AND STARBURST GALAXIES [PDF]
We present correlations between 9 CO transitions ( J = 4 – 3 ?> to 12 – 11 ?> ) and beam-matched far-infrared (far-IR) luminosities ( L FIR , b ?> ) among 167 local galaxies, using Herschel Spectral and Photometric Imaging Receiver Fourier Transform ...

Imaging FTS: A Different Approach to Integral Field Spectroscopy
Imaging Fourier transform spectroscopy (iFTS) is a promising, although technically very challenging, option for wide‐field hyperspectral imagery. We present in this paper an introduction to the iFTS concept and its advantages and drawbacks, as well as examples of data obtained with a prototype iFTS, SpIOMM, attached to the 1.6 m telescope of the ...

Local starburst galaxies and their descendants. Statistics from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey [PDF]
Despite strong interest in the starburst phenomenon in extragalactic astronomy, the concept remains ill-defined. Here we use a strict definition of starburst to examine the statistical properties of starburst galaxies in the local universe.

Chimneys in the starburst galaxy M 82 [PDF]
A new radio image of the core of the starburst galaxy M82 is presented. A pair of probable galactic chimneys are evident. Such structures have been conjectured to result when a giant shell of ionized gas breaks out of the dense plane of a galaxy and ejects hot gas into the halo.

Chemodynamical Simulations of Dwarf Galaxy Evolution
In this review I give a summary of the state of the art for what concerns the chemo‐dynamical numerical modelling of galaxies in general and of dwarf galaxies in particular. In particular, I focus my attention on (i) initial conditions, (ii) the equations to solve; (iii) the star formation process in galaxies, (iv) the initial mass function, (v) the ...
