... The Star-Forming Histories of the Nearst Dwarf Galaxies . ... We will open the meeting by reviewing what is currently known about the star formation and chemical evolution histories of the dwarf galaxies in the Local Group. ... In these galaxies, episodic "bursts" of star formation appear to be common. ... My review talk will consist of: 1) Carina dSph (M_V=-9) The Carina dSph has had bursts of star formation 3, 5, 6 to 8 and ~15 Gyr ago with little or no star formation between these episodes. ...

PhD thesis "Formation and Chemodynamical Evolution of Galaxies", 2002, Univ. of Tokyo . ... Cosmic SFRs, chemical evolution, mass-dependent galactic winds, and the mass-metallicity relation of galaxies are reproduced (Kobayashi, Springel, White 06). ... What are dwarf galaxies? ...

... According to the most popular cosmological paradigm, the greater part of the galaxy mass is accumulated in the dark matter halo. ... The polar ring galaxies (PRGs) reveal external rings or disks of gas, dust and stars rotating in a plane roughly perpendicular to the disk of the central galaxy. ... The shape of the dark halo in the model was chosen so as to achieve the best fit to the observed rotation of both galaxies themselves and their polar rings. ... The SPRC-7 galaxy. ...

There are still many open questions on galaxy formation and evolution, such as e.g. the predominance of hierarchical or monolithic processes in the galaxy formation or the temporal evolution of disk metallicity gradients. ... Chemical abundances of stellar populations of different ages are essential to constrain the past history of nearby galaxies, both in terms of their past metal contents and of SFHs. ...

... Our resulting sample of ELGs presented in Tables 2 and 3 is not artificially biased to any specific type of galaxies. ... Since we are looking for selection of a sample of Case BCGs, it is interesting to examine how the detected BCGs are connected with Case emission-line codes. ... Altogether BCGs comprise about 60 % of all Case ELGs which display emission lines in our spectra, or about 44 % of all Case galaxies with some emission-line code. ... Among those with the code ``w'' about 40 % are BCGs. ...

... Bad Astronomy . ... Bitesize Astronomy . ... Last week's Snack talked about how black holes can affect the environment around them in such a way as to be very bright . ... It's a common misconception that black holes always have matter swirling into them. ... As this matter gets closer and closer to the black hole it piles up and a large, fairly flat disk forms. This is called the accretion disk , because matter from this disk accretes (that is, falls in) on the black hole. ... 2008 Phil Plait. ...

... The search for distant objects which can be both galaxies and quasars is one of the most important problems of observational astrphysics, because it allows one to determine cosmological parameters connected with the time of appearence and evolution of stellar systems, large scale structure of the Universe. ... Radio galaxies are important objects to be studied because they are sources of infrared-optical-ultraviolet continuum, emission lines and continual radio emission. ...

... It is reasonable to expect a priori that the evolution of events is strongly time dependent, so the star formation history in a galaxy is another important parameter. Therefore, by calculating the evolution of events after a -function like star formation burst,   one gets a Green function for any arbitrary star formation history. ... The source evolution in a galaxy with given star formation rate is thus calculated as . ...
