The evolution of galaxy structure over cosmic time

CJ Conselice - Annual Review of Astronomy and Astrophysics, 2014 - annualreviews.org
I present a comprehensive review of the evolution of galaxy structure in the Universe from
the first galaxies currently observable at z∼ 6 down to galaxies observable in the local …

A survey of high-z galaxies: serra simulations

A Pallottini, A Ferrara, S Gallerani… - Monthly Notices of …, 2022 - academic.oup.com
We introduce serra, a suite of zoom-in high-resolution (, at z= 7.7) cosmological simulations
including non-equilibrium chemistry and on-the-fly radiative transfer. The outputs are post …

Star formation in galaxies along the Hubble sequence

RC Kennicutt Jr - Annual Review of Astronomy and Astrophysics, 1998 - annualreviews.org

physical nature of the Hubble sequence and are key probes of the evolutionary histories of …

Young massive star clusters

SF Portegies Zwart, SLW McMillan… - Annual review of …, 2010 - annualreviews.org
Young massive clusters (YMCs) are dense aggregates of young stars that form the
fundamental building blocks of galaxies. Several examples exist in the Milky Way Galaxy …

Luminous infrared galaxies

DB Sanders, IF Mirabel - Annual Review of Astronomy and …, 1996 - annualreviews.org

extragalactic objects in the local Universe (z≲ 0.3), being more numerous than optically …

A simple model for the absorption of starlight by dust in galaxies

S Charlot, SM Fall - The Astrophysical Journal, 2000 - iopscience.iop.org
We present a new model for computing the effects of dust on the integrated spectral
properties of galaxies, based on an idealized description of the main features of the …

Dust-corrected star formation rates of galaxies. II. Combinations of ultraviolet and infrared tracers

CN Hao, RC Kennicutt, BD Johnson… - The Astrophysical …, 2011 - iopscience.iop.org
We present new calibrations of far-ultraviolet (FUV) attenuation as derived from the total
infrared to FUV luminosity ratio (IRX) and the FUV–near-UV (NUV) color. We find that the …

Galactic winds

S Veilleux, G Cecil… - Annu. Rev. Astron …, 2005 - annualreviews.org

recycled in galaxies and are deposited into the intergalactic medium. New observations are …

Dust absorption and the ultraviolet luminosity density at z≈ 3 as calibrated by local starburst galaxies

GR Meurer, TM Heckman, D Calzetti - The Astrophysical Journal, 1999 - iopscience.iop.org
We refine a technique to measure the absorption-corrected ultraviolet (UV) luminosity of
starburst galaxies using rest-frame UV quantities alone and apply it to Lyman-limit U …
