Star formation histories (SFHs) of galaxies are affected by a variety of factors, both external (field vs. cluster/group) and internal (presence of a bar and AGN, morphological type). In this work, we extend our previous study and apply the…
This paper explores the X-ray properties of `normal' galaxies using a shallow XMM-Newton survey covering an area of ~1.5deg2. The X-ray survey overlaps with the 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey. Compared with previous studies this has the…
We analyzed 17 galaxy clusters, and investigated, for the first time, the dependence of the SFR and sSFR as a function of projected distance (as a proxy for environment) and stellar mass for cluster galaxies in an intermediate-to-high…
The star formation rate - stellar mass relation (SFR-M*) and its evolution (i.e., the SFR main sequence) describes the growth rate of galaxies of a given stellar mass and at a given redshift. Assuming that present-day star-forming galaxies…
The relation between the stellar mass and the star formation rate characterizes how the instantaneous star formation is determined by the galaxy past star formation history and by the growth of the dark matter structures. We deconstruct the…
Galaxy evolution and extragalactic astronomy research depend on an understanding of the interactions between active galactic nuclei (AGN) and their host galaxies. We investigate the relationships between X-ray luminosity (Lx), star…
We present a demographic analysis of integrated star formation and gas properties for a sample of galaxies representative of the overall population at z~0. This research was undertaken in order to characterise the nature of star formation…
We discuss the observable consequences for the detection of galaxies in the X-ray bandpass resulting from a peak in the cosmic star-formation rate at a redshift > 1. Following White & Ghosh, we assume a large evolution in the X-ray/B…
One of the key unanswered questions in the study of galaxy evolution is what physical processes inside galaxies drive the changes in the SFRs in individual galaxies that, taken together, produce the large decline in the global…
We present a new measurement of the gas-phase mass-metallicity relation (MZR), and its dependence on star formation rates (SFRs) at 1.3 < z < 2.3. Our sample comprises 1056 galaxies with a mean redshift of z = 1.9, identified from the…
We present and analyze the possibility of using optical ${\it u}$-band luminosities to estimate star-formation rates (SFRs) of galaxies based on the data from the South Galactic Cap ${\it u }$ band Sky Survey (SCUSS), which provides a deep…
Using a subsample of 79 nearby clusters from the RASS-SDSS galaxy cluster catalogue of Popesso et al. (2005a), we perform a regression analysis between the cluster integrated star formation rate (Sigma_SFR) the cluster total stellar mass…
The study of massive star formation needs some basic tools, among which reliable SFR tracers are crucial ones. We are presently revising the calibration of SFR tracers at different wavelength ranges using last generation evolutionary…
We present a spectroscopic study of low-mass galaxies (LMGs;$10^8\leq\rm M_*/M_\odot\leq10^9$) at $z\sim0.15$ in COSMOS field, and compare it to a control sample of intermediate-mass galaxies (IMGs;$10^9\leq\rm M_*/M_\odot\leq10^{10}$) at…
We have combined determinations of the epoch-dependent star formation rate (SFR) function with relationships between SFR and radio (synchrotron and free-free) emission to work out detailed predictions for the counts and the redshift…
It is well established that (1) star-forming galaxies follow a relation between their star formation rate (SFR) and stellar mass (M$_{\star}$), the "star-formation sequence", and (2) the SFRs of galaxies correlate with their structure,…
In this work we study the stellar mass -- metallicity relation (MZR) of an extended sample of star-forming galaxies in the local Universe and its possible dependence with the star formation rate (SFR). A sample of $\sim$195000 Sloan Digital…
We present multi-wavelength global star formation rate (SFR) estimates for 326 galaxies from the Star Formation Reference Survey (SFRS) in order to determine the mutual scatter and range of validity of different indicators. The widely used…
Using a sample of 299 Ha-selected galaxies at z~0.8, we study the relationship between galaxy stellar mass, gas-phase metallicity, and star formation rate (SFR), and compare to previous results. We use deep optical spectra obtained with the…
We investigate the mean star formation rates (SFRs) in the host galaxies of ~3000 optically selected QSOs from the SDSS survey within the Herschel-ATLAS fields, and a radio-luminous sub-sample, covering the redshift range of z = 0.2-2.5.…
