Far-ultraviolet spectra obtained with $FUSE$ show that the strong $CII\lambda$1036 interstellar absorption-line is essentially black in five of the UV-brightest local starburst galaxies. Since the opacity of the neutral ISM below the…

We infer the properties of massive star populations using the far-ultraviolet stellar continua of 61 star-forming galaxies: 42 at low-z observed with HST and 19 at z~2 from the Megasaura sample. We fit each stellar continuum with a linear…

We discuss implications of a stellar-dominated UV background at high redshifts. The composite spectrum of 29 LBGs evaluated by Steidel etal (2000) at <z>=3.4 can be well fit by a stellar population with ongoing star formation, a Salpeter…

The He II \lambda 1640 emission line has been suggested as a direct probe of Population III (Pop III) stars at high-redshift, since it can arise from highly energetic ionizing photons associated with hot, metal free stars. We use the HST…

We have discovered a ~45 kpc Lya nebula (or Lya ``blob'') at z~1.67 which exhibits strong, spatially-extended HeII emission and very weak CIV and CIII] emission. This is the first spatially-extended Lya+HeII emitter observed and the lowest…

We constructed diagnostic diagrams using emission line ratios and equivalent widths observed in several samples of HII galaxies. The diagrams are compared to predictions from new photoionization models for evolving starbursts. We find that…

A significant fraction of high redshift starburst galaxies presents strong Ly alpha emission. Understanding the nature of these galaxies is important to assess the role they played in the early Universe and to shed light on the relation…

We study the kinematically narrow, low-ionization line emission from a bright, starburst galaxy at z = 0.69 using slit spectroscopy obtained with Keck/LRIS. The spectrum reveals strong absorption in MgII and FeII resonance transitions with…

We present models of the late stages of stellar evolution intended to explain the UV upturn phenomenon in elliptical galaxies. Such models are sensitive to values of a number of poorly-constrained physical parameters, including metallicity,…

Among the nearest most metal-poor starburst-dwarf galaxies known, SBS 0335-052E is the most luminous in integrated nebular He II {\lambda}4686 emission. This makes it a unique target to test spectral synthesis models and spectral…

IZw1 is the prototype narrow line quasar. This type of AGNs show a number of common peculiar characteristics whose physical origin is not yet well understood. Here, I review the results of a detailed study by Laor et al. (1997b) of the UV…

HeII is the most sought-after emission line to detect and characterize metal free stellar populations. However, current stellar population/photo-ionization models lack sufficient He$^+$ ionising photons to reproduce observed HeII fluxes…

We present a panchromatic study of nearby starburst galaxies from the ultraviolet to the visible, including narrow band H(alpha) using WIYN and HST data, to determine how star formation processes affect the morphology and integrated fluxes…

Recent observational and theoretical results on starburst galaxies related to the wavelength regime below 1200 A are discussed. The review covers stars, dust, as well as hot and cold gas. This wavelength region follows trends similar to…

We present an analysis of UV spectra of quasars at intermediate redshifts believed to belong to the extreme Population A (xA), aimed to estimate the chemical abundances of the broad line emitting gas. We follow the approach described in a…

We investigate the ultraviolet (UV) spectral properties of faint Lyman-$\alpha$ emitters (LAEs) in the redshift range 2.9<z<4.6 and provide material to prepare future observations of the faint Universe. We use data from the MUSE Hubble…

We present deep spectroscopy of 17 very low mass (M* ~ 2.0x10^6 Msun to 1.4x10^9 Msun) and low luminosity (M_UV ~ -13.7 to -19.9) gravitationally lensed galaxies in the redshift range z~1.5-3.0. Deep rest-frame ultraviolet spectra reveal…

We present $[OIII]/H_{\rm \beta}$ emision line flux ratio predictions for galaxies at $z \sim 7-9$ using the MAPPINGS V v5.2.0 photoionization modelling code combined with an analytic galaxy formation model. Properties such as pressure and…

Recent observations have successfully detected UV or infrared flux from galaxies at the epoch of reionization. However, the origin of their radiative properties has not been fully understood yet. Combining cosmological hydrodynamic…

The properties of starbursts in ultraluminous infrared galaxies are discussed, with particular emphasis on the fueling, the amount of extinction and the intrinsic properties of the nuclear starbursts. It is shown by the example of NGC6240…
