Extragalactic gamma-ray background from AGN winds and star-forming galaxies in cosmological galaxy formation models [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
We derive the contribution to the extragalactic gamma-ray background (EGB) from AGN winds and star-forming galaxies by including a physical model for the gamma-ray emission produced by relativistic protons accelerated by AGN-driven and supernova-driven ...

Starbursts in interacting galaxies: Observations and models [PDF]

open access: yes
Starbursts have been a puzzling field of research for more than a decade. It is evident that they played a significant role in the evolution of many galaxies but still quite little is known about the starburst mechanisms.

Galaxies and Photometric Signature of Starburst [PDF]

open access: yesSymposium - International Astronomical Union, 1996
In a series of papers (see Rakos & Schombert 1995, ApJ 439, 47), we have carried out CCD photometry of galaxies in rich clusters at various redshifts. We use a modified Strömgren system, modified in the sense that the filter set is “redshifted” to the cluster of galaxies in consideration (i.e., λobs = λ(1 + z), therefore no k-correction).

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 ...

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.

The Flux Ratio Method for Determining the Dust Attenuation of Starburst Galaxies

open access: yes, 1999
The presence of dust in starburst galaxies complicates the study of their stellar populations as the dust's effects are similar to those associated with changes in the galaxies' stellar age and metallicity.

Nearby starburst galaxies

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 1989
New multiaperture 1.65 and 2.2 micron photometry has been obtained for the central region of 132 spirals exhibiting 2 orders of magnitude range in central 10-micron luminosity. This multiaperture photometry along with optical spectroscopy indicated that the high central 10-micron luminosity (about 1 billion solar luminosities) is powered by massive ...

The equipartition magnetic field formula in starburst galaxies: accounting for pionic secondaries and strong energy losses [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Equipartition arguments provide an easy way to find a characteristic scale for the magnetic field from radio emission, by assuming the energy densities in cosmic rays and magnetic fields are the same.
