Book Synopsis Molecular Gas, Dust, and Star Formation in Galaxies (IAU S292) by : Tony Wong
Download or read book Molecular Gas, Dust, and Star Formation in Galaxies (IAU S292) written by Tony Wong and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2013-04-11 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Our knowledge of the molecular gas content in galaxies has advanced rapidly in the past decade with systematic surveys from ground-based radio facilities, coupled with advances in observations and modeling of the thermal dust emission associated with the gas. This Symposium Proceedings provides a timely overview of the latest observations of molecular gas and dust in the Milky Way and in other galaxies. It also covers related topics including the initial conditions for star formation, observational tracers of star formation and interstellar conditions, and simulations of the turbulent, multiphase interstellar medium. Featuring ten review articles by leaders in the field, and including early results and prospects for the ALMA observatory, this volume will prove especially useful for graduate students or scientists who are pursuing or planning research in this area.
Book Synopsis Star Formation, Galaxies and the Interstellar Medium by : Jose Franco
Download or read book Star Formation, Galaxies and the Interstellar Medium written by Jose Franco and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1993-06-10 with total page 418 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The enormously powerful phenomena of starbursts are examined in this book. These spectacular star-forming events are seen on large scales in some galaxies, often triggered by galactic interactions. An intriguing implication of starburst research is that active galactic nuclei (AGN) may not be powered by accreting black holes. Instead theories are presented where compact powerhouses of dust-enshrouded star formation lie at the core of AGN, with supernovae exploding roughly once per year within massive nuclear concentrations of gas. This book collects articles from a timely international conference in Elba, Italy, in 1992; these comprise a thorough review of the most important developments in galactic-scale star formation since the starburst revolution of the late 1980s. This text will introduce graduate students to this exciting area and keep experts apace with rapid developments in it.

Book Synopsis Low-metallicity Star Formation (IAU S255) by : International Astronomical Union. Symposium
Download or read book Low-metallicity Star Formation (IAU S255) written by International Astronomical Union. Symposium and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 448 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although low-mass metal-poor galaxies in the local universe have often been proposed as the 'primordial building blocks' in the hierarchical scenario of structure formation, several lines of evidence suggest that this may not be true. Moreover, it is not clear to what extent dwarf galaxies, because they are metal poor and because of their kinematics and structure, can tell us about how star formation proceeded in the early universe. This volume provides an overview and the most recent advances in this debate. IAU Symposium 255 presents the most up-to-date developments in six key areas, including: Population III and metal-free star formation; metal-enrichment, chemical evolution and feedback; explosive events in low-metallicity environments; dust and gas as seeds for metal-poor star formation; metal-poor initial mass functions, stellar evolution and star-formation histories; and low-metallicity star formation in the local universe. This overview is at a level suitable for research astronomers and graduate students.

Book Synopsis The Magellanic System (IAU S256) by : International Astronomical Union. Symposium
Download or read book The Magellanic System (IAU S256) written by International Astronomical Union. Symposium and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2009-04-16 with total page 552 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume presents the most complete and up-to-date accounts of our understanding of the Magellanic Clouds and the astrophysical processes within them. Observations of these nearby dwarf galaxies continue to advance, calibrate and challenge our knowledge of the cosmos. They are rich in gas, they have been actively forming stars throughout their history, and they display a wealth of dynamical features. Poor in metals, they serve as a stepping stone towards understanding the high-redshift Universe. In IAU Symposium 256, scientists from vastly different fields of research discuss galactic dynamics, the physics of the interstellar medium and star formation, and the fundamental properties and evolution of stars. New insight was gained by crossing the traditional boundaries of these fields, placing the findings in the context of the structure and evolution of this interacting pair of galaxies uniquely available to our ever more powerful telescopes and computational machinery.

Book Synopsis The Interplay Among Black Holes, Stars and ISM in Galactic Nuclei (IAU S222) by : International Astronomical Union. Symposium
Download or read book The Interplay Among Black Holes, Stars and ISM in Galactic Nuclei (IAU S222) written by International Astronomical Union. Symposium and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2004 with total page 608 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How massive are the largest and smallest nuclear black holes in galaxies? Why are the masses of nuclear black holes proportional to those of their host galaxy bulges? How is nuclear activity triggered? What are the observational signatures of such processes? What are the connections between the active nucleus, stars and interstellar medium in galaxies? Answers to these questions are addressed in this book, which presents a compilation of 191 works covering recent observations from X-rays to radio wavelengths, as well as theoretical modeling of accretion disks, stellar populations and galaxy and black hole evolution. This volume presents the nuclear activity as a phase in the life of a galaxy, which is intimately connected to the evolution of its stars and interstellar medium. It brings together recent developments in topics covering most aspects of galaxy evolution, and is a valuable resource for astronomers and graduate students working in extragalactic astronomy.

Book Synopsis Stellar Disk Evolution and Gaseous Disk Turbulence of Dwarf Irregular Galaxies by : Hong-Xin Zhang
Download or read book Stellar Disk Evolution and Gaseous Disk Turbulence of Dwarf Irregular Galaxies written by Hong-Xin Zhang and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-08-27 with total page 165 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on the stellar disk evolution and gas disk turbulence of the most numerous galaxies in the local Universe – the dwarf galaxies. The “outside-in” disk shrinking mode was established for a relatively large sample of dwarf galaxies for the first time, and this is in contrast to the “inside-out” disk growth mode found for spiral galaxies. Double exponential brightness profiles also correspond to double exponential stellar mass profiles for dwarf galaxies, which is again different from most spiral galaxies. The cool gas distribution in dwarf galaxies was probed with the spatial power spectra of hydrogen iodide (HI) gas emission, and provided indirect evidence that inner disks of dwarf galaxies have proportionally more cool gas than outer disks. The finding that no correlation exists between gas power spectral indices and star formation gave important constraints on the relation between turbulence and star formation in dwarf galaxies.
