Spatially resolved spectroscopy of faint star-forming galaxies & their environments in the high redshift universe [PDF]
, 2011 This thesis is concerned with the spectroscopic observations of distant galaxies, 1 < z < 5. The galaxies presented here are intrinsically faint such that their ux is dominated by ordinary star formation rather than galaxy-galaxy merging and/or ...

The Astrophysical JournalInfrared-luminous galaxies are important sites of stellar and black hole mass assembly at most redshifts. Their luminosities are often estimated by fitting spectral energy distribution (SED) models to near- to far-infrared data, but the dependence of ...

Starburst-induced Gas–Star Kinematic Misalignment
The Astrophysical Journal LettersA kinematic misalignment of the stellar and gas components is a phenomenon observed in a significant fraction of galaxies. However, the underlying physical mechanisms are not well understood. A commonly proposed scenario for the formation of a misaligned

An investigation of the active galaxies M82 and NGC 5128 [PDF]
, 1995 In this thesis we present multi-waveband imaging polarimetry and spectropolarime- try of the starburst galaxy M82 and multi-waveband imaging polarimetry of the active galaxy NGC 5128. A review of previous studies of these galaxies is given.

The star formation history of early-type galaxies in the fornax cluster [PDF]
, 1998 We have measured central line strengths and line-strength gradients for a complete sample of early-type galaxies in the Fornax cluster, comprising 11 elliptical and 11 lenticular galaxies, more luminous than M(_B) = -17.

No Metallicity Preference in Fast Radio Burst Host Galaxies
The Astrophysical Journal LettersFast radio bursts (FRBs) are millisecond-duration extragalactic radio transients of unknown origin, and studying their host galaxies could offer clues to constrain progenitor models.

Modelling the UV to sub-mm SED of starburst galaxies
, 2015 This paper reviews the theoretical modelling of starburst galaxies with particular emphasis on the importance of the gas-phase physics in determining the form of the continuum SED and the emission line spectrum.

Machine Learning Classification of COSMOS2020 Galaxies: Quiescent versus Star-forming
The Astrophysical JournalAccurately distinguishing between quiescent and star-forming galaxies is essential for understanding galaxy evolution. Traditional methods, such as spectral energy distribution (SED) fitting, can be computationally expensive and may struggle to capture ...

Evidence for multiple types of post-starburst galaxies
The quenching mechanisms of galaxies are not yet fully understood, but post-starburst galaxies provide one explanation for the rapid transition between star-forming and quiescent galaxies.

The ultraviolet signature of massive stars in starburst galaxies [PDF]
, 1993 Studies in different spectral regimes of starburst galaxies clearly indicate the presence of hot, massive stars. However, only the UV spectral region can be used to directly identify the spectroscopic signature of these stars.
