Observations of the local Universe clearly demonstrate that very active star formation phases (starbursts) are often associated with interacting and merging galaxies and that in these systems much of the short wavelength emission is absorbed by dust and re-emitted in the IR. ...

Despite many decades of progress in understanding the evolution of star formation and stellar populations in galaxies, we have still fundamental questions that have remained unanswered. These include: how do stars cluster in galaxies, and how do these structures evolve in time? ... How are popular star formation rate indicators affected by the recent star formation history of a galaxy? ... The answers to these questions inform our theories for the evolution of galaxies through cosmic times. ...

. Authors: A.A. Suchkov , V.A. Marakov . Journal: Pis'ma Astron. Zh., 1976, v.2, p.38-385. Metallisity function of globular clusters in the Galaxy is constructed. It is found to have three "humps". This leads to a conclusion that there were three metal enrichment outbursts during the period of globular cluster formation. The constraints on the nature of metal sourses and on the early evolution of Galaxy are considered.
