We study the preferred environments of z ˜ 0 massive relic galaxies (M⋆ ≳ 1010 M⊙ galaxies with little or no growth from star formation or mergers since z ˜ 2)...
Massive Star Formation and Tidal Structures in HCG 31
We present new broadband optical and near-infrared CCD imaging together with deep optical intermediate-resolution spectroscopy of the Hickson Compact Group 31...
Massive star formation in galaxies with excess ultraviolet emission
From an analysis of almost 2000 Galaxy Evolution Explorer images of galaxies with morphological types ranging from E to Sab, we have found a significant subset...
Massive star formation in the central regions of spiral galaxies
Context: . The morphology of massive star formation in the central regions of galaxies is an important tracer of the dynamical processes that govern the...
