2. 1. Investigating the origin of radio emission in nearby starburst galaxies via high-resolution metre and centimetre observations

   Author : Eskil Varenius; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; galaxies: individual: M 82; galaxies: starburst; galaxies: individual: Arp 220; stars: supernovae; galaxies: individual: NGC 4418; radio continuum: galaxies; techniques: high angular resolution;

   Abstract : Star formation and galaxy evolution are intimately linked together. A detailed understanding of the physics of star formation can help us explain how galaxies evolve into, for example, our present Milky Way. READ MORE

4. 2. Multi frequency interferometer studies of active and starburst galaxies

   Author : Evert Olsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; galaxies: active; galaxies: ISM; galaxies: starburst; galaxies: evolution;

   Abstract : We report the results of a multi-frequency study of three interactinggalaxies: NGC 5218, NGC 1614 and NGC 4194 (the Medusa merger). These sourcesbelong to different classes of active and starburst galaxies. READ MORE

5. 3. Stacking of interferometric data at sub-millimeter and radio wavelengths

   Author : Lukas Lindroos; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; techniques: interferometric; methods: data analysis; sub-millimetre: galaxies; galaxies: high- redshift; radio continuum: galaxies;

   Abstract : Understanding the procceses of galaxy evolution require 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, during the past decade, been used to produce extensive catalogues of high-redshift galaxies, spanning a large range of the history of the Universe.

6. 4. 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

7. 5. Polarization in the ELAIS-N1 LOFAR deep field

   Author : Sara Piras; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; ELAIS-N1; galaxies; polarization; polarimetric; radio continuum;

   Abstract : The physical characteristics of cosmic magnetic fields are encoded in the po- larization properties of the extragalactic radio sources. Linearly polarized radiation undergoes Faraday rotation as it crosses a magneto-ionic medium; the rotation of the polarization angle of the signal is equal to its wavelength squared times the Rotation Measure (RM), that is proportional to the line- of-sight integral of the product of the magnetic field component along the line of sight and the density of thermal electrons.
