Superwinds and the nature of starburst galaxies [PDF]
I discuss the observational evidence that starburst galaxies are able to drive galactic-scale outflows ('superwinds') and then argue generally that superwinds must have had an important role in galaxy evolution. To explore the role of feedback from massive stars, I review results suggesting that starbursts seem to obey a limiting IR surface brightness ...

Starbursts in multiple galaxy mergers [PDF]
We numerically investigate stellar and gaseous dynamical evolution of mergers between five identical late-type disk galaxies with the special emphasis on star formation history and chemical evolution of multiple galaxy mergers.

Studying the Interstellar Medium of H II/BCD Galaxies Using IFU Spectroscopy
We review the results from our studies, and previous published work, on the spatially resolved physical properties of a sample of H ii/BCD galaxies, as obtained mainly from integral-field unit spectroscopy with Gemini/GMOS and VLT/VIMOS. We confirm that,

CH+(1-0) in a z~2.8 galaxy group: Probe of multi-phasic turbulent gas reservoirs [PDF]
Starburst galaxies at redshifts z~2 to 4 are among the most intensely star-forming galaxies in the universe. The way they accrete their gas to form stars at such high rates is still a controversial issue.

ALCHEMI: Results from the ALMA Comprehensive High-resolution Extragalactic Molecular Inventory of NGC253 [PDF]
The star formation process in galaxies drives their evolution. The physical conditions which drive the star formation process in galaxies are studied using measurements of atomic and molecular species found in the dense has from which stars form in ...

KM3NeT/ARCA Sensitivity to Starburst Galaxies [PDF]
In this work, the expectations of the full detector KM3NeT/ARCA are presented for particular starburst galaxies signals. For the point-like search approach, we considered the most promising local starburst galaxies to be observed as point-like neutrino ...

The State of the Molecular Gas in Post-starburst Galaxies
The molecular gas in galaxies traces both the fuel for star formation and the processes that can enhance or suppress star formation. Observations of the molecular gas state can thus point to when and why galaxies stop forming stars.

Dust in starburst galaxies [PDF]
To investigate the nature of starbursts' dust, we constructed a model of the stars and dust in starburst galaxies and applied it to 30 observed starburst spectral energy distributions (SEDs). The starburst model was constructed by combining two stellar evolutionary synthesis models with a model describing the radiative transfer of stellar photons ...

Decomposition of the central structure of NGC 2273 in the NIR: A case study
Abstract The Seyfert 2 galaxy NGC 2273 is a prime target to explore how active nuclei can be fed. It has a star‐forming innermost nuclear ring with a radius of 0.33kpc from where material may be funneled to the supermassive black hole in its center. In this article, we discuss high‐resolution adaptive optics aided JHKs images of NGC 2273 taken with the
