Starburst99: Synthesis Models for Galaxies with Active Star Formation [PDF]
Starburst99 is a comprehensive set of model predictions for spectrophotometric and related properties of galaxies with active star formation. The models are an improved and extended version of the data set previously published by Leitherer & Heckman.

Coevolution (Or Not) of Supermassive Black Holes and Host Galaxies [PDF]
Supermassive black holes (BHs) have been found in 85 galaxies by dynamical modeling of spatially resolved kinematics. The Hubble Space Telescope revolutionized BH research by advancing the subject from its proof-of-concept phase into quantitative studies

The Origin of Star Formation in Early-type Galaxies Inferred from Spatially Resolved Spectroscopy
We investigate the origin of star formation activity in early-type galaxies with current star formation using spatially resolved spectroscopic data from the Mapping Nearby Galaxies at Apache Point Observatory in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS).

We develop a lepton–hadron model for the possible origin of hard very high energy (VHE) spectra from a distant blazar. The model includes synchrotron self-Compton (SSC) and hadronic components.

The Origin of the Mass-Metallicity Relation: Insights from 53,000 Star-forming Galaxies in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey [PDF]
We utilize Sloan Digital Sky Survey imaging and spectroscopy of ~53,000 star-forming galaxies at z ~ 0.1 to study the relation between stellar mass and gas-phase metallicity.

The physical properties of star-forming galaxies in the low-redshift universe [PDF]
We present a comprehensive study of the physical properties of ∼ 10 5 galaxies with measurable star formation in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS). By comparing physical information extracted from the emission lines with continuum properties, we build ...

Energy input from quasars regulates the growth and activity of black holes and their host galaxies [PDF]
In the early Universe, while galaxies were still forming, black holes as massive as a billion solar masses powered quasars. Supermassive black holes are found at the centres of most galaxies today, where their masses are related to the velocity ...
