    Spatially Resolved Star Formation Main Sequence of Galaxies in the CALIFA Survey
    The “main sequence of galaxies”—defined in terms of the total star formation rate ψ versus the total stellar mass M *—is a well-studied tight relation that has...

    Spatially-resolved dust properties of the GRB 980425 host galaxy
    Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) have been proposed as a tool for studying star formation in the Universe, so it is crucial to investigate whether their host galaxies...

    Specific star formation and the relation to stellar mass from 0 < z < 2 as seen in the far-infrared at 70 and 160 μm
    We use the Spitzer Wide-area InfraRed Extragalactic Legacy Survey (SWIRE) to explore the specific star formation activity of galaxies and their evolution near...

    Spectroscopic Classification of Low-Mass Pre-Main Sequence Stars in Taurus
    We present mid-resolution spectroscopic observations of 35 stars reported to be weak T Tauri stars (WTTS) discovered by ROSAT in the Taurus-Auriga star-forming...

    SPIDER - X. Environmental effects in central and satellite early-type galaxies through the stellar fossil record
    A detailed analysis of how environment affects the star formation history of early-type galaxies (ETGs) is undertaken via high signal-to-noise ratio stacked...

    Standing on the shoulder of a giant: ISAAC, Antu, and star formation
    In this article, we hope to illustrate the great qualitative and quantitative strides that star-formation studies have taken in the past few years, by looking...

    Star and galaxy formation, then and now
    This lecture will address recent progress in modeling the emergence of cosmic structure at high redshifts. Also new insights gained from numerical simulations...

    Star formation and AGN
    We analyze the data from narrow band H-alpha and forbidden O III CCD imaging of a sample of nearby spiral galaxies with active nuclei. The results show that the...

    Star formation and black hole accretion activity in rich local clusters of galaxies
    Context. We present a study of star formation and central black hole accretion activity of galaxies that are hosted in the two nearby (z ~ 0.2) rich galaxy...
