The equipartition magnetic field formula in starburst galaxies: accounting for pionic secondaries and strong energy losses [PDF]
Equipartition arguments provide an easy way to find a characteristic scale for the magnetic field from radio emission, by assuming the energy densities in cosmic rays and magnetic fields are the same.

Escape of Lyman continuum radiation from local galaxies - Detection of leakage from the young starburst Tol 1247-232 [PDF]
Context. It has been suggested that the escape fraction of hydrogen ionizing photons (f(esc)) from galaxies is evolving with time, but the picture is far from clear.

Dust Absorption and the Ultraviolet Luminosity Density at z ≈ 3 as Calibrated by Local Starburst Galaxies [PDF]
We refine a technique to measure the absorption-corrected ultraviolet (UV) luminosity of starburst galaxies using rest-frame UV quantities alone and apply it to Lyman-limit U dropouts at z ≈ 3 found in the Hubble Deep Field (HDF).

The use of SO and SO2 as probes of the dense interstellar medium in the nearby starburst galaxies NGC 253 and M82 is described. Emission in the 99.3 GHz 3(2) - 2(1) rotational transition of SO was detected in NGC 253 and possibly in M82, and upper limits are reported for emission in the 219.9 GHz 6(5) - 5(4) transition of SO and two lines of SO2.

The cold gas content of post-starburst galaxies [PDF]
Post-starburst galaxies, or E+A galaxies, are characterized by optical spectra showing strong Balmer absorption lines, indicating a young stellar population, and little or no emission lines, implying no active star formation.

A dominant population of optically invisible massive galaxies in the early Universe [PDF]
Our current knowledge of cosmic star-formation history during the first two billion years (corresponding to redshift z > 3) is mainly based on galaxies identified in rest-frame ultraviolet light1.

PROPERTIES OF NEARBY STARBURST GALAXIES BASED ON THEIR DIFFUSE GAMMA-RAY EMISSION [PDF]
The physical relationship between the far-infrared and radio fluxes of star-forming galaxies has yet to be definitively determined. The favored interpretation, the “calorimeter model,” requires that supernova generated cosmic-ray (CR) electrons cool ...
