    The integrated galactic IMF - from star clusters to galaxies
    Over the past years observations of young and populous star clusters have shown that the stellar initial mass function (IMF) can be conveniently described by a...

    The location of optically thin CO emission in M82
    Observations of a broad area at the core of M82, obtained with spatial resolution 30 arcsec and velocity resolution 15.6 km/sec in the J = 2-1 line of CO using...

    The multiple routes of galaxy transformation across the cosmic epochs
    In the local universe most of the stellar mass is in passive galaxies, where star formation isabsent or at very low levels. Understanding what are the...

    The OTELO Survey: The Star Formation Rate Evolution of Low-mass Galaxies
    We present the analysis of a sample of Hα, Hβ, and [O II] emission line galaxies from the OTELO survey, with masses typically below $\mathrm{log}({M}_{* }/{M}_{...

    The starburst galaxy NGC 7714
    Narowband H alpha imaging and long-slit optical and near-infrared spectroscopy are analyzed in a study of the starburst galaxy NGC 7714. The data indicate that...

    The starburst model for active galactic nuclei - The broad-line region as supernova remnants evolving in a high-density medium
    The evolution of an SNR in a high-density medium has been studied using analytical and numerical hydrodynamic and photoionization models. The models show that...

    The triggering mechanisms of powerful radio galaxies: mergers and interactions.
    Despite speculation that both starburst and nuclear activity in galaxies may be intimately linked via the common triggering mechanism of mergers and...

    Turbulent Gas in Lensed Planck-selected Starbursts at z ∼ 1-3.5
    Dusty star-forming galaxies at high redshift (1 < z < 3) represent the most intense star-forming regions in the universe. Key aspects to these processes are the...

    Witnessing the Formation of Massive, Distant Galaxies in the (Sub)Millimeter Regime
    In order to understand galaxy formation it is crucial to obtain sensitive observations of the emission of dust and molecular gas both of which constrain the on...
