Winds from Nuclear Starbursts: Old Truths and Recent Progress on Superwinds

open access: yes, 2004
I will discuss a few select aspects of the most common and best understood galactic-scale outflow -- starburst-driven superwinds, focusing on winds from nuclear starburst galaxies.

Current Star Formation in Post-Starburst Galaxies? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Radio continuum observations are a probe of star formation in galaxies, and are unaffected by dust extinction. Observations of the distant rich cluster Cl 0939+4713 have detected radio galaxies classified as post-starburst (``k+a'') on the basis of their

Discovery of Large Molecular Gas Reservoirs in Post-Starburst Galaxies

open access: yes, 2015
Post-starburst (or "E+A") galaxies are characterized by low H$\alpha$ emission and strong Balmer absorption, suggesting a recent starburst, but little current star formation.

Densitometry and Thermometry of Starburst Galaxies

open access: yes, 2011
With a goal toward deriving the physical conditions in external galaxies, we present a survey of formaldehyde (H2CO) and ammonia (NH3) emission and absorption in a sample of starburst galaxies using the Green Bank Telescope. By extending well-established

Nir Line Observations of Starburst Galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesSymposium - International Astronomical Union, 1999
We have obtained images of the H2and Brγ emission lines in the galaxy interacting system NGC 3690 + IC 694. We have also obtained simultaneous H- and K-band spectra for three of its 2μm continuum peaks. The most detectable line emission is concentrated at the continuum peaks. Therefore, the emission lines as well as stellar absorption lines can be used

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 ...

Starburst Galaxies in Their Last Billion Years: An Hδ Absorption Line Selected Sample

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
In this paper, we focus on the study of starburst galaxies in their final billion years. Our galaxy selection is based solely on the presence of the H δ absorption line, which permits the later evolution of starburst galaxies to be traced, coinciding ...
