We present infrared observations of 66 starburst galaxies over the full range of oxygen abundances observed in local star-forming galaxies, from 12+log(O/H)=7.1 to 8.9. ... We confirm a strong correlation of aromatic emission with metallicity, with a threshold at 12+log(O/H)~8. We show that the far-infrared color temperature of the large dust grains increases toward lower metallicity, peaking at a metallicity of 8 before turning over. ...

... A Meeting in Honor of the 65th Birthday of Carl Heiles . ... GENERAL MEETING INFORMATION . Diffuse interstellar material (ISM) occupies the vast majority of space in our Galaxy and in others. ... Therefore, it was most fitting to honor Carl, a distinguished researcher and an inspiring professor, with a meeting dedicated to observational and theoretical studies of the diffuse ISM. Along with this symposium, the 3rd Galactic ALFA (GALFA) Consortium meeting was held on August 29, 2004. ...

... By taking advantage of atomic hydrogen (HI) observations obtained as part of the GALEX Arecibo SDSS and ALFALFA surveys, I will demonstrate that the combination of deep, targeted observations and spectral stacking of blind, large-area shallow surveys is critical in order to characterize how the gas content of galaxies depends on their structure, star formation activity and environment. ...

... All the galaxies are divided into 4 groups depending on the environment type; every subsample contains more than 10 galaxies. ... An effect of environments is seen both for the nuclei and for the bulges: if we consider the clusters (Virgo and Ursa Ma jor) and group centers as dense environments and the field and group periphery as sparse environments, then in the dense environments the stellar populations of S0s are in average older by 4­5 Gyr than in the sparse ones. ...

Credit Copyright: Ken Crawford Explanation: NGC 2685 is a confirmed polar ring galaxy - a rare type of galaxy with stars, gas and dust orbiting in rings perpendicular to the plane of a flat galactic disk. The bizarre configuration could be caused by the chance capture of material from another galaxy by a disk galaxy, with the captured debris strung out in a rotating ring. ... March 2014 . ...
