Extreme accretion events: TDEs and changing‐look AGN
Astronomische Nachrichten, Volume 344, Issue 4, May 2023., 2023 Abstract We present a review of the topics of X‐ray stellar tidal disruption events (TDEs) and changing‐look active galactic nuclei (AGN). Stars approaching a supermassive black hole (SMBH) can be tidally disrupted and accreted. TDEs were first discovered in the X‐ray regime and appear as luminous, giant‐amplitude flares from inactive galaxies.

Dust in starburst galaxies [PDF]
AIP Conference Proceedings, 1997 To investigate the nature of starbursts' dust, we constructed a model of the stars and dust in starburst galaxies and applied it to 30 observed starburst spectral energy distributions (SEDs). The starburst model was constructed by combining two stellar evolutionary synthesis models with a model describing the radiative transfer of stellar photons ...

Astronomische Nachrichten, Volume 344, Issue 1-2, January-February 2023., 2023 Abstract Star‐forming and starburst galaxies (SBGs), which are well‐known cosmic‐ray (CR) reservoirs, are expected to emit gamma rays and neutrinos predominantly via hadronic collisions. In this work we analyze the 10‐year Fermi‐Low Energy Technique (LAT) spectral energy distributions of 13 nearby galaxies by means of a physical model that accounts for

Chemical abundances in the dwarf galaxy NGC 4163 based on the nebular and auroral emission lines
Astronomische Nachrichten, Volume 343, Issue 9-10, November-December 2022., 2022 Abstract We constructed an oxygen abundance map and N/O ratio map of the unusually low excitation dwarf irregular galaxy NGC 4163 based on publicly available spectroscopy obtained by the MaNGA survey. We detected auroral emission line [O II]λλ$$ \lambda \lambda $$7320,7330 which allows us to measure chemical abundance by direct Te$$ {\mathrm{T}}_e ...

Theoretical Modeling of Starburst Galaxies [PDF]
, 2001 We have modeled a large sample of infrared starburst galaxies using both the PEGASE v2.0 and STARBURST99 codes to generate the spectral energy distribution (SED) of the young star clusters.

HST UV Spectroscopy of the Dwarf Starburst Galaxy Pox 186
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 Studying the galaxies responsible for reionization is often conducted through local reionization-era analogs; however, many of these local analogs are too massive to be representative of the low-mass star-forming galaxies that are thought to play a ...

Merger Signatures are Common, but not Universal, in Massive, Recently Quenched Galaxies at z ∼ 0.7
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 We present visual classifications of merger-induced tidal disturbances in 143 M _* ∼ 10 ^11 M _⊙ post-starburst galaxies at z ∼ 0.7 identified in the $\mathrm{SQuIGG}\vec{L}{\rm{E}}$ Sample.

Cosmic ray transport in starburst galaxies [PDF]
Monthly notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2019 Starburst galaxies are efficient γ-ray producers, because their high supernova rates generate copious cosmic ray (CR) protons, and their high gas densities act as thick targets off which these protons can produce neutral pions and thence γ-rays.

Rapid Quenching of Galaxies at Cosmic Noon
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 The existence of massive quiescent galaxies at high redshift seems to require rapid quenching, but it is unclear whether all quiescent galaxies have gone through this phase and what physical mechanisms are involved.

Clocking the Evolution of Post-starburst Galaxies: Methods and First Results [PDF]
Astrophysical Journal, 2018 Detailed modeling of the recent star formation histories (SFHs) of post-starburst (or “E+A”) galaxies is impeded by the degeneracy between the time elapsed since the starburst ended (post-burst age), the fraction of stellar mass produced in the burst ...
