Open Astronomy, 2011 Equivalent widths of spectral lines in the optical spectra of galaxies are commonly used to characterize their stellar populations and to get some insight on their evolution.

Modelling ISO Galaxy Counts with Luminosity and Merger Rate Evolution [PDF]
, 1998 We model galaxy evolution in the 6.75 and 15 micron passbands of the ISO satellite, by combining models of galaxy evolution at optical wavelengths (which are consistent with the optical galaxy counts) with observed spectral energy distributions in the ...

, 2009 We investigate the fraction of starbursts, starburst-AGN composites, Seyferts, and LINERs as a function of infrared luminosity (L_IR) and merger progress for ~500 infrared-selected galaxies. Using the new optical classifications afforded by the extremely

Triggered Starbursts in Galaxy Mergers [PDF]
Symposium - International Astronomical Union, 1999 A unified formation mechanism of nuclear starbursts is presented; all the nuclear starbursts are triggered by binary supermassive black holes made in the final phase of galaxy mergers. Minor mergers cause both nuclear starbursts and hot-spot nuclei while major mergers cause (ultra) luminous infrared galaxies. We discuss the case of Arp 220 in detail.

FROM STARBURST TO QUIESCENCE: TESTING ACTIVE GALACTIC NUCLEUS FEEDBACK IN RAPIDLY QUENCHING POST-STARBURST GALAXIES [PDF]
, 2014 Post-starbursts are galaxies in transition from the blue cloud to the red sequence. Although they are rare today, integrated over time they may be an important pathway to the red sequence.

Revisiting the Gas Dynamics of Henize 2–10: Possible Drivers of the Starburst
The Astrophysical JournalThe triggers of starburst episodes are a key component to our understanding of the baryon cycle in galaxies. Galaxy mergers are a commonly suggested catalyst for starbursts, but once the galaxies coalesce into a single kinematically disturbed system ...

Dust and gas in luminous proto-cluster galaxies at z=4.05: the case for different cosmic dust evolution in normal and starburst galaxies [PDF]
, 2014 We measure the dust and gas content of the three sub-millimeter galaxies (SMGs) in the GN20 proto-cluster at z=4.05 using new IRAM Plateau de Bure interferometer (PdBI) CO(4-3) and 1.2-3.3mm continuum observations.

The Dust Content and Opacity of Actively Star-forming Galaxies [PDF]
, 1999 We present far-infrared (FIR) photometry at 150 and 205 μm of eight low-redshift starburst galaxies obtained with the Infrared Space Observatory (ISO) ISOPHOT.
