We investigate the relative importance of starbursts and active galactic nuclei (AGN) in nuclear activities of ultraluminous infrared galaxies (ULIRGs) based on chemodynamical simulations combined with spectrophotometric synthesis codes. We numerically investigate both the gas accretion rates (ARs; m acc ) on to supermassive black holes (SMBHs) and the star formation rates (SFRs; m sf ) in ULIRGs formed by gas-rich galaxy mergers and thereby discuss what powers ULIRGs. ...

... Science . ... The goal is to bring together two communitities: the one working on star formation (mostly galactic) and the one working on the formation of young massive clusters (mostly extra-galactic). We will link galactic with extra-galactic work, optical/NIR techniques with sub-mm/mm/radio ones, the formation of stars with the one of massive star clusters - observations and theory. ... Coordinated by Marina Rejkuba (abstract) . ... How did star formation proceed in Globular Clusters? ...

The radial distribution of metallicity of star-forming galaxies in a galaxy cluster can inform us about the mass assembly and enrichment history of the galaxy cluster. ... Both galaxy clusters are cool-core clusters at redshift z т?? ... The gas-phase metallicity of star- forming galaxies in MACS1115+01 exhibit anti-correlation with projected distance т??0.15 ТБ 0.08 dex/Mpc, whereas the radial metallicity distribution of RXJ1532+30 is statistically flat (т??0.09 ТБ 0.12 dex/Mpc). ...

Next: Low-Mass Star Formation Up: M.D. Smith Previous: M.D. Smith Contents . Massive stars are of elevated importance in our Universe for several reasons. ... During their lives, they influence the nurseries in which new stars might form. ... He and Michael Smith investigated the consequences of massive star formation in one such region of our Galaxy. They uncovered that massive stars are forming in the Rosette Molecular Complex at a rate way beyond previous expectations. ...

... 2000 March 6 . Abell 2142: Clash of the Galaxy Clusters . ... Explanation: Over the course of billions of years, whole clusters of galaxies merge. Above is an X-ray image of Abell 2142 , the result of the collision of two huge clusters of galaxies , and one of the most massive objects known in the universe. This false-color image shows a concentration of gas 50 million degrees hot near the center of the resulting cluster. ... About APOD | ...
