Superwinds and the nature of starburst galaxies [PDF]
Symposium - International Astronomical Union, 1999 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 ...

Stellar populations dominated by massive stars in dusty starburst galaxies across cosmic time [PDF]
Nature, 2018 All measurements of cosmic star formation must assume an initial distribution of stellar masses—the stellar initial mass function—in order to extrapolate from the star-formation rate measured for typically rare, massive stars (of more than eight solar ...

Large turbulent reservoirs of cold molecular gas around high-redshift starburst galaxies [PDF]
Nature, 2017 Starburst galaxies at the peak of cosmic star formation are among the most extreme star-forming engines in the Universe, producing stars over about 100 million years (ref. 2).

The evolution of post-starburst galaxies from z=2 to 0.5 [PDF]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2016 We present the evolution in the number density and stellar mass functions of photometrically selected post-starburst galaxies in the UKIDSSUltraDeep Survey,with redshifts of 0.5 10.

Particle acceleration in the superwinds of starburst galaxies [PDF]
Astronomy & Astrophysics, 2018 Context. Starbursts are galaxies undergoing massive episodes of star formation. The combined effect of stellar winds from hot stars and supernova explosions creates a high-temperature cavity in the nuclear region of these objects. The very hot gas expands adiabatically and escapes from the galaxy creating a superwind which sweeps matter from the ...

DISCOVERY OF LARGE MOLECULAR GAS RESERVOIRS IN POST-STARBURST GALAXIES [PDF]
Astrophysical Journal, 2015 Post-starburst (or “E+A”) galaxies are characterized by low Hα emission and strong Balmer absorption, suggesting a recent starburst, but little current star formation.

Evolution Through the Post-starburst Phase: Using Post-starburst Galaxies as Laboratories for Understanding the Processes that Drive Galaxy Evolution [PDF]
Publications of the Astronomical Society of the Pacific, 2021 Post-starburst (or “E+A”) galaxies trace the fastest and most dramatic processes in galaxy evolution. Recent work studying the evolution of galaxies through this phase has revealed insights on how galaxies undergo structural and stellar population ...
