  1. 1. Molecular gas and ionizing radiation in star-forming galaxies

    Author : Johannes Puschnig; Matthew Hayes; Göran Östlin; Amélie Saintonge; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; astrophysics; galaxies; star formation; starburst; interstellar medium; Lyman continuum; Lyman alpha; reionization; gravitational instability; molecular gas; clump formation; Astronomy; astronomi;

    Abstract : In cosmic history, some of the major changes such as reionization were driven by baryons (i.e. the stars and gas in galaxies), despite the fact that they contribute only few percent to the total mass-energy budget in the Universe. READ MORE

  2. 2. Crowded Field Photometry and Luminosity Function Analysis as Probes of Galactic Evolution

    Author : Ralph Snel; Astronomi - Genomgår omorganisation; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Astronomy; observational; Methods: data analysis; statistical - Techniques: photometric - Stars: luminosity function; imaging; evolution - Galaxies: stellar content; mass function; space research; cosmic chemistry; Astronomi; rymdvetenskap; kosmisk kemi; Fysicumarkivet A:1998:Snel;

    Abstract : Crowded field photometry is a powerful method to investigate stellar evolutionary processes in astrophysically interesting regions such as nearby external galaxies and globular cluster cores. While detectors are approaching the physical limits for photon detection, data analysis methods for crowded stellar fields are not yet equally sophisticated. READ MORE

  3. 3. Star clusters as engines of galaxy evolution

    Author : Mattia Sirressi; Angela Adamo; Matthew J. Hayes; Johan Fynbo; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Stars form and live in hierarchical structures such as star clusters on the smallest scales up to groups of galaxies on the largest scales. The role of young and massive star clusters in the evolution of the host galaxies is one of the most active fields of research in modern astronomy. READ MORE

  4. 4. Stacking of interferometric data - a submillimetre and radio view on the evolution of distant galaxies

    Author : Lukas Lindroos; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Understanding the processes of galaxy evolution requires observational constraints on the physical properties of galaxies at different times in the history of the universe. Large and deep surveys at visible and near-infrared wavelengths have produced extensive catalogues of high-redshift galaxies, spanning a large range of the history of the universe. READ MORE
