Chemical Evolution of the Universe and its Consequences for Gravitational‐Wave Astrophysics

Annalen der Physik, Volume 536, Issue 2, February 2024.
Population properties of double compact object mergers (especially binary black holes) are sensitive to the metallicity dependent cosmic star formation history. The uncertainty of this quantity cannot be ignored and makes the interpretation of current gravitational wave observations difficult.

The Study of Nebular Emission on Nearby Spiral Galaxies in the IFU Era

Advances in Astronomy, Volume 2013, Issue 1, 2013., 2013
A new generation of wide‐field emission‐line surveys based on integral field units (IFU) is allowing us to obtain spatially resolved information of the gas‐phase emission in nearby late‐type galaxies, based on large samples of HII regions and full two‐dimensional coverage.

Cool Gas in the Circumgalactic Medium of Massive Post Starburst Galaxies

The Open Journal of Astrophysics
Observing the interplay between galaxies and their gaseous surroundings is crucial for understanding how galaxies form and evolve, including the roles of long-lived cool gas reservoirs, starburst and AGN driven outflows.

The Impact of Starbursts on the Circumgalactic Medium [PDF]

, 2013
We present a study exploring the impact of a starburst on the properties of the surrounding circum-galactic medium (CGM): gas located beyond the galaxy's stellar body and extending out to the virial radius (200 kpc). We obtained ultraviolet spectroscopic

RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN STAR FORMATION RATE AND BLACK HOLE ACCRETION AT z = 2: THE DIFFERENT CONTRIBUTIONS IN QUIESCENT, NORMAL, AND STARBURST GALAXIES [PDF]

, 2015
We investigate the co-evolution of the black hole accretion rate (BHAR) and the star formation rate (SFR) in 1.5 < z < 2.5 ?> galaxies displaying a greater diversity of star-forming properties compared to previous studies.

Comparing Star Formation Histories and Evolutionary Pathways of Post-starburst and E+A Galaxies in TNG50 and SDSS-IV MaNGA

The Astrophysical Journal
E+A galaxies represent a class of recently quenched objects, with spectra that show evidence of a previous substantial starburst and strong Balmer absorption lines indicative of A-type stellar populations.

Local starburst galaxies and their descendants. Statistics from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey [PDF]

, 2015
Despite strong interest in the starburst phenomenon in extragalactic astronomy, the concept remains ill-defined. Here we use a strict definition of starburst to examine the statistical properties of starburst galaxies in the local universe.

The Mitchell Spectrograph: Studying Nearby Galaxies with the VIRUS Prototype

Advances in Astronomy, Volume 2013, Issue 1, 2013., 2013
The Mitchell Spectrograph (a.k.a. VIRUS‐P) on the 2.7 m Harlan J. Smith telescope at McDonald Observatory is currently the largest field of view (FOV) integral field unit (IFU) spectrograph in the world (1.7′ × 1.7′). It was designed as a prototype for the highly replicable VIRUS spectrograph which consists of a mosaic of IFUs spread over a 16 ...

COSMOS-Web: The Role of Galaxy Interactions and Disk Instabilities in Producing Starbursts at z < 4

The Astrophysical Journal
We study of the role of galaxy–galaxy interactions and disk instabilities in producing starburst activity in galaxies out to z = 4. For this, we use a sample of 387 galaxies with robust total star formation rate measurements from Herschel, gas masses ...
