History of Star Formation Rate and Luminosity Density of Galaxies
We have computed the time evolution of bolometric, far-infrared, Hα line, ultraviolet (both intrinsic and escaping the star forming region) and the nonthermal radio continuum luminosities for continuous and constant star formation terminating at 95 Myr. The luminosity rises to a plateau value and declines after the termination of starburst, but only gradually. The time evolution profiles are br...
متن کاملDetermining Star Formation Rates for Infrared Galaxies
We show that measures of star formation rates (SFRs) for infrared galaxies using either singleband 24μm or extinction-corrected Paα luminosities are consistent in the total infrared luminosity = L(TIR) ∼ 10 L⊙ range. MIPS 24μm photometry can yield star formation rates accurately from this luminosity upward: SFR(M⊙ yr )=7.8×10 L(24μm, L⊙) from L(TIR) = 5× 10 9 L⊙ to 10 11 L⊙ and SFR = 7.8 × 10 −...
متن کاملInfrared Spectroscopy of Star Formation in Galaxies
We have observed the Brackett a (4.05 #m) and Brackett "7 (2.17 _m) lines with 7.2" angular and 350 km s -1 velocity resolution in 11 infrared-bright galaxies. From these measurements we derive extinctions, Lyman continuum fluxes, and luminosities due to OB stars. The galaxies observed to date are NGC 3690, M83, NGC 5195, Arp 220, NGC 520, NGC 660, NGC 1614, NGC 3079, NGC 6946, NGC 7714, and Ma...
متن کاملMassive star formation in Luminous Infrared Galaxies
We present HST/NICMOS observations of a sample of LIRGs. We show that active star formation appears to be occurring not only in the bright nuclei of these galaxies, but also in luminous super-star clusters and giant H ii regions with ages of up to 20− 40Myr. This population of bright clusters and H ii regions is unprecedented in normal galaxies and emphasizes the effects of the extreme star for...
متن کاملLuminosity Density of Galaxies and Cosmic Star Formation Rate from ΛCDM Hydrodynamical Simulations
We compute the cosmic star formation rate (SFR) and the rest-frame comoving luminosity density in various pass-bands as a function of redshift using large-scale ΛCDM hydrodynamical simulations with the aim of understanding their behavior as a function of redshift. To calculate the luminosity density of galaxies, we use an updated isochrone synthesis model which takes metallicity variations into...
