Star clusters as tracers of galaxy evolution
Star clusters represent the most common ‘mode’ of star formation. They are found in all types of environments, cascading down from galaxy groups and merging pairs through starbursts to normal galaxies and dwarves and even isolated regions in extragalactic space. As they maintain a link to the overall star formation in a system, they can be used as tracers of the star formation history of enviro...
متن کاملGamma-ray Bursts May Be Biased Tracers of Star Formation
Based on a simulation of galaxy formation in the standard cosmological model, we suggest that a consistent picture for Gamma-Ray Bursts and star formation may be found that is in broad agreement with observations: GRBs preferentially form in low metallicity environments and in galaxies substantially less luminous that L∗. We find that the computed formation rate of stars with metallicity less t...
متن کاملDERIVING THE GEOMETRY OF Be STAR CIRCUMSTELLAR ENVELOPES FROM CONTINUUM SPECTROPOLARIMETRY. I. THE CASE OF f TAURI
We present a general scheme for determining the circumstellar geometry of Be stars from modeling of optical continuum spectropolarimetry. Our modeling scheme utilizes a Monte Carlo radiation transfer code that determines the polarization due to multiple photon scattering, including the e†ects of continuous hydrogen absorption and emission from a disklike circumstellar envelope. We show that by ...
متن کاملAegis: Extinction and Star Formation Tracers from Line Emission
Strong nebular emission lines are a sensitive probe of star formation and extinction in galaxies, and the [O II] line detects star forming populations out to z > 1. However, star formation rates from emission lines depend on calibration of extinction and the [O II]/Hα line ratio, and separating star formation from AGN emission. We use calibrated line luminosities from the DEEP2 survey and Palom...
