We aim to understand the physical mechanisms that drive star formation in a sample of mass-complete (>10$^{9.5}M_{\odot}$) star-forming galaxies (SFGs) at 1.2 $\leq z$ < 1.6. We selected SFGs from the COSMOS2020 catalog and applied a…

We present a new theoretical modeling to predict luminosity and spectrum of gamma-ray and neutrino emission of a star-forming galaxy, from star formation rate ($\psi$), gas mass ($M_{\rm gas}$), stellar mass, and disk size, taking into…
