Star formation rates in luminous quasars at 2 < z < 3
We investigate the relation between star formation rates (dot{{M}}_s) and AGN properties in optically selected type 1 quasars at 2 z 3 using data from...
Star formation rates of distant luminous infrared galaxies derived from Hα and IR luminosities
We present a study of the star formation rate (SFR) for a sample of 16 distant galaxies detected by ISOCAM at 15 μm in the CFRS0300+00 and CFRS1400+52 fields...
Numerical simulations predict that metal-poor gas accretion from the cosmic web fuels the formation of disk galaxies. This paper discusses how cosmic gas...
Star formation trends in high-redshift galaxy surveys: the elephant or the tail?
Star formation rate and accumulated stellar mass are two fundamental physical quantities that describe the evolutionary state of a forming galaxy. Two recent...
Star Formation Triggering by Density Waves in the Grand Design Spirals NGC 3992 and NGC 628
Although spiral structure in grand design galaxies is generally present in the young and old stellar components and also in both atomic and molecular gas, the...
Star tracking for pointing determination of Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescopes. Application to the Large-Sized Telescope of the Cherenkov Telescope Array
We present a novel approach to the determination of the pointing of Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescopes (IACTs) using the trajectories of the stars in...
Star-formation activity of low-mass galaxies at the peak epoch of galaxy formation probed by deep narrow-band imaging
Low-mass galaxies at high redshifts are the building blocks of more massive galaxies at later times and are thus key populations for understanding galaxy...
Star-forming galaxies at low-redshift in the SHARDS survey
Context. The physical processes driving the evolution of star formation (SF) in galaxies over cosmic time still present many open questions. Recent galaxy...
Star-forming galaxies in SDSS: signs of metallicity evolution
Context: Evolution of galaxies through cosmic time has been widely studied at high redshift, but there are a few studies in this field at lower redshifts...
