Imaging FTS: A Different Approach to Integral Field Spectroscopy
Advances in Astronomy, Volume 2014, Issue 1, 2014., 2014 Imaging Fourier transform spectroscopy (iFTS) is a promising, although technically very challenging, option for wide‐field hyperspectral imagery. We present in this paper an introduction to the iFTS concept and its advantages and drawbacks, as well as examples of data obtained with a prototype iFTS, SpIOMM, attached to the 1.6 m telescope of the ...

Chemodynamical Simulations of Dwarf Galaxy Evolution
Advances in Astronomy, Volume 2014, Issue 1, 2014., 2014 In this review I give a summary of the state of the art for what concerns the chemo‐dynamical numerical modelling of galaxies in general and of dwarf galaxies in particular. In particular, I focus my attention on (i) initial conditions, (ii) the equations to solve; (iii) the star formation process in galaxies, (iv) the initial mass function, (v) the ...

Molecular tracers of PDR-dominated galaxies [PDF]
, 2009 Photon-dominated regions (PDRs) are powerful molecular line emitters in external galaxies. They are expected in galaxies with high rates of massive star formation due to either starburst (SB) events or starburst coupled with active galactic nuclei (AGN ...

Anomalous Microwave Emission from Star Forming Regions
Advances in Astronomy, Volume 2013, Issue 1, 2013., 2013 The evidence for microwave emission from spinning dust grains has been strengthened considerably by its detection in a number of discrete astrophysical objects associated with star formation. These detections, in combination with statistical constraints on its presence on large angular scales in the diffuse ISM, have provided strong observational ...

The Evolution of Post-Starburst Galaxies from $z\sim1$ to the Present
, 2016 Post-starburst galaxies are in the transitional stage between blue, star-forming galaxies and red, quiescent galaxies, and therefore hold important clues for our understanding of galaxy evolution.

Age and Dust Degeneracy for Starburst Galaxies Solved? [PDF]
, 1999 A spectral evolution model of galaxies that includes both stellar and dust effects is newly built. xApplying the model to 22 nearby starburst galaxies, we have shown that far infrared luminosity of galaxies helps to break the age-dustiness degeneracy. We

Wolf–Rayet stars in starburst galaxies
New Astronomy Reviews, 2000 Wolf-Rayet stars have been detected in a large number of galaxies experiencing intense bursts of star formation. All stars initially more massive than a certain, metallicity-dependent, value are believed to experience the Wolf-Rayet phase at the end of their evolution, just before collapsing in supernova explosion.

CO-Observations of Post-Starburst Galaxies
Astrophysics and Space Science, 2001 The so-called starburst phenomenon is an issue of great importance for the evolution of galaxies. Although a lot of progress has been made in this field, it is still unknown how they evolve.
