Probing cluster formation under extreme conditions: massive star clusters in blue compact galaxies
• Physics
• 2011
The numerous and massive young star clusters in blue compact galaxies (BCG) are used to investigate the properties of their hosts. We test whether BCGs follow claimed relations between the cluster ...
Central regions of LIRGs: rings, hidden starbursts, Supernovae and star clusters
• Physics
• 2012
We study star formation (SF) in very active environments, in luminous IR galaxies, which are often interacting. A variety of phenomena are detected, such as central starbursts, circumnuclear SF,
Unveiling the nature of blue compact galaxies
Blue compact galaxies (BCGs) are gas-rich star-forming low redshift galaxies with low metallicities. In some cases the relative strength of the starburst can be so high that it completely dominates
