Testing 24 micron and Infrared Luminosity as Star Formation Tracers for Galactic Star Forming Regions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
We have tested some relations for star formation rates used in extra-galactic studies for regions within the Galaxy. In nearby molecular clouds, where the IMF is not fully-sampled, the dust emission at 24 micron greatly underestimates star formation ...

The Way of Water: ALMA Resolves H2O Emission Lines in a Strongly Lensed Dusty Star-forming Galaxy at z ∼ 3.1

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We report Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) high-resolution (≲0.3″) observations of water emission lines p -H _2 O(2 _02 − 1 _11 ), o -H _2 O(3 _21 − 3 _12 ), p -H _2 O(4 _22 − 4 _13 ), in the strongly lensed galaxy HATLASJ113526.2 ...

The use of extra-galactic star formation tracers on star forming regions in the Milky Way [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
We studied three groups of star forming clouds in the Milky Way: 5 clouds from Spitzer c2d Legacy survey, 10 clouds from Gould Belt survey, and 32 massive dense clumps.

Seeds Of Life In Space (SOLIS): The Organic Composition Diversity at 300–1000 au Scale in Solar-type Star-forming Regions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Complex organic molecules have been observed for decades in the interstellar medium. Some of them might be considered as small bricks of the macromolecules at the base of terrestrial life.

Identifying Physical Structures in Our Galaxy with Gaussian Mixture Models: An Unsupervised Machine Learning Technique

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We explore the potential of the Gaussian mixture model (GMM), an unsupervised machine-learning method, to identify coherent physical structures in the interstellar medium.

Physical properties and H-ionizing-photon production rates of extreme nearby star-forming regions [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2017
Measurements of the galaxy UV luminosity function at z 6 suggest that young stars hosted in low-mass star-forming galaxies produced the bulk of hydrogen-ionizing photons necessary to reionize the intergalactic medium (IGM) by redshift z ∼ 6. Whether star-

Star Formation Efficiency in the Central 1 kpc Region of Early-Type Spiral Galaxies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
It has been reported recently that there are some early-type spiral (Sa--Sab) galaxies having evident star-forming regions which concentrate in their own central 1-kpc.

Experimental Studies of Gas-Phase Reactivity in Relation to Complex Organic Molecules in Star-Forming Regions

open access: yesACS Earth and Space Chemistry, 2019
The field of astrochemistry concerns the formation and abundance of molecules in the interstellar medium, star-forming regions, exoplanets, and solar system bodies.

Disentangling the role of environmental processes in galaxy clusters

open access: yes, 2012
In this work we present the results of a novel approach devoted to disentangle the role of the environmental processes affecting galaxies in clusters. This is based on the analysis of the NUV-r' distributions of a large sample of star-forming galaxies in
