We present spatially resolved Spitzer Space Telescope imaging of the supergiant shell region of the M81 group dwarf galaxy IC 2574 obtained as part of the Spitzer Infrared Nearby Galaxies Survey. This region harbors one of the best nearby examples of a kinematically distinct H I shell, with an associated remnant stellar cluster; the shell is initiating sequential star formation as it interacts with the surrounding interstellar medium. ...

... Absorption by neutral atomic hydrogen in luminous spiral galaxies provides an excellent tool to study the gas kinematics in their nuclear regions. ... Since the absorption lines are intrinsically narrow as a result of the low temperatures of the optically thick gas, typically 30 to 150 K (Dickey, Salpeter & Terzian 1979), it is surprising that numerous galaxies show H I absorption over a broad range of velocities (a few hundred kms -1 ); see e.g., Fig. ... range . ...

... Science Users Information > Science Activities > PhD Thesis Topics offered by ESO Faculty Members > Thesis Topic: Planetary Nebulae and HII regions in the Elliptical Galaxy NGC 5128 . ... NGC 5128 is the closest example of a giant early type (elliptical or S0) galaxy. Although often dubbed as a peculiar elliptical galaxy since it has a dust lane with recent star formation and an active galactic nucleus, the majority of early type galaxies have similar structures as revealed by recent surveys. ...

... Massive stars, having 10-150 masses of the Sun, with metallicities Z tens to hundreds times less than that of the Sun (Zo), are the main regulators of the galaxy formation and evolution processes in the early Universe. ... In this galaxy, using the 6 m BTA telescope, a new massive blue variable star with high luminosity (>=10 5 Sun's luminocities in visible light) was found. As far as its properties are concerned, this star falls into an LBV (Luminous Blue Variable) class of stars. ...

Our understanding of star formation in galaxies is facilitated by observations, at multiple wavelengths, of emission which traces stellar populations. ... Using optical integral field spectroscopy, my work aims to better understand the local SFR calibrations, which use H-alpha and radio continuum emission, when applied to different regions of a galaxy, as well as to galaxies as a whole. ...

A new high-resolution image from the orbiting Chandra X-ray Observatory has resolved the inner regions of this nearby galaxy into several smaller sources. ... Extended X-ray emission from the center appears to match optical light and appears consistent with a model where hot gas is escaping from a supermassive black hole at Circinus' center . ...

Detecting Bias in a Self-Organizing Map of Galaxy Photometry Data Zach Clayto , Peter Capa , Dan Maste 1 1 r 2 k 2 rs Ohio Wesleyan University, 2Infrared Processing and Analysis Center, California Institute of Technology Abstract High redshift (very distant) galaxy surveys record broad-band photometry for billions of galaxies in order to measure distances in a faster, more cost-effective way than spectroscopy. ... High-redshift galaxies can be identified efficiently in such a mapping. ...

My main research interests are: . ... The method showed that the star formation in the external disc was quenched about 200 Myr ago, because of the gas removal due to the ram pressure (Pappalardo et al. ... Molecular gas and dust in spiral discs. ... Dust removal in spiral discs. ... Starting from this consideration I am at present analyzing all the spirals discs in the HeVICS sample, to find evidences of dust removed or strongly perturbed by environments, both ram pressure and/or tidal interactions. ...

. A frame from the simulation of the two colliding "Antennae" galaxies. Here the galaxies are re-shaped after their first encounter. High resolution allows the astrophysicists to explore the smallest details. Stars are formed in the densest regions (yellow and red) under the effect of compressive turbulence. Star formation is more efficient here than in normal galaxies like our Milky Way. F. Renaud/CEA-Sap
