UV excess galaxies: Wolf-Rayet galaxies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
We discuss V and R band photometry for 67% of the Sullivan et al. 2000 SA57 ultraviolet-selected galaxy sample. In a sample of 176 UV-selected galaxies, Sullivan et al.

The Global Schmidt law in star forming galaxies [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
Measurements of Hα, H I, and CO distributions in 61 normal spiral galaxies are combined with published far-infrared and CO observations of 36 infrared-selected starburst galaxies, in order to study the form of the global star formation law over the full ...

Exploring AGN - starburst coexistence in galaxies at z$\sim$ 0.8 by the [OIII]4959+5007/[OIII]4363 line ratio

open access: yes, 2016
We analyze by detailed modelling the spectra observed from the sample galaxies at z$\sim$0.8 presented by Ly et al (2015), constraining the models by the [OIII]5007+4959/[OIII]4363 line ratios. Composite models accounting for shock and photoionization by

The Calibration of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbon Dust Emission as a Star Formation Rate Indicator in the AKARI NEP Survey

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) dust emission has been proposed as an effective extinction-independent star formation rate (SFR) indicator in the mid-infrared, but this may depend on conditions in the interstellar medium.

266 E+A Galaxies Selected from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Data Release 2: The Origin of E+A Galaxies

open access: yes, 2005
E+A galaxies are characterized as a galaxy with strong Balmer absorption lines but without any [OII] nor H$\alpha$ emission lines. The existence of strong Balmer absorption lines indicates that E+A galaxies have experienced starburst within recent one ...

SO in starburst galaxies

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 1992
The use of SO and SO2 as probes of the dense interstellar medium in the nearby starburst galaxies NGC 253 and M82 is described. Emission in the 99.3 GHz 3(2) - 2(1) rotational transition of SO was detected in NGC 253 and possibly in M82, and upper limits are reported for emission in the 219.9 GHz 6(5) - 5(4) transition of SO and two lines of SO2.

The Nature of Starbursts: I. The Star Formation Histories of Eighteen Nearby Starburst Dwarf Galaxies

open access: yes, 2010
We use archival HST observations of resolved stellar populations to derive the star formation histories (SFHs) of 18 nearby starburst dwarf galaxies.

Starburst galaxies [PDF]

open access: yes
The infrared properties of star-forming galaxies, primarily as determined by the Infrared Astronomy Satellite (IRAS), are compared to X-ray, optical, and radio properties.

Discovery of GeV emission from the direction of the luminous infrared galaxy NGC 2146

open access: yes, 2014
Recent detection of high-energy gamma-ray emission from starburst galaxies M82 and NGC 253 suggests that starburst galaxies are huge reservoirs of cosmic rays and these cosmic rays convert a significant fraction of their energy into gamma-rays by ...
