We construct a model of H$\alpha$ emitters (HAEs) based on a semi-analytic galaxy formation model, the New Numerical Galaxy Catalog ($\nu^2$GC). In this paper, we report our estimate for the field variance of the HAE distribution. By…
The 20 cm radio continuum fluxes of 91 HII regions in a previously compiled catalog have been determined. The spectral types of the ionizing stars in 42 regions with known distances are estimated. These spectral types range from B0.5 to O7,…
The HI mass function (HIMF) for galaxies in the local universe is constructed from the results of the Arecibo HI Strip Survey, a blind extragalactic survey in the 21cm line. The survey consists of two strips covering in total 65 square…
We aim to place new, strengthened constraints on the luminosity function (LF) of H-alpha emitting galaxies at redshift z=2.2, and to further constrain the instantaneous star-formation rate density of the universe (rho*). We have used the…
(Summary) Making use of scaling relations between the central and the total galaxy luminosity of a dark matter halo as a function of the halo mass, and the scatter in these relations, we present an empirical model to describe the luminosity…
We present mid-infrared (MIR) spectra of HII regions within star-forming galaxies M83 and M33. Their emission features are compared with Galactic and extragalactic HII regions, HII-type galaxies, starburst galaxies, and Seyfert/LINER type…
We present complete, low resolution IJHK spectroscopy of the ultracompact HII region, G45.12+0.13. From the observed HI line strengths, we derive a near infrared extinction law that is slightly steeper than the average. After correction…
We measure the r-band galaxy luminosity function (LF) across environments over the redshift range 0<$z$<0.107 using the SDSS. We divide our sample into galaxies residing in large scale voids (void galaxies) and those residing in denser…
The promise of multi-wavelength astronomy has been tempered by the large disparity in sensitivity and resolution between different wavelength regimes. Here we present a statistical approach which attempts to overcome this by fitting…
By collecting the information from 24 previously published lists and catalogs, we produce a comprehensive catalog (Master Catalog) of 1442 Galactic HII regions. For each object, we quote the original fluxes and diameters as well as the…
We present a new, detailed, analysis of the spatial distribution of Galactic HII regions, exploiting a far richer database than used in previous analyses. Galactocentric distances have been derived for 550 objects. Distances from the Sun…
Much of the information about the magnetic field in the Milky Way and other galaxies comes from measurements which are path integrals, such as Faraday rotation and the polarization of synchrotron radiation of cosmic ray electrons. The…
Integral field spectroscopy (IFS) is presented for star forming regions in M33. A central area of 300 x 500 pc^2 and the external HII region IC 132, at a galactocentric distance {\sim} 19arcmin (4.69 kpc) were observed with the Potsdam…
It is known that the gas has a fractal structure in a wide range of spatial scales with a fractal dimension that seems to be a constant around Df = 2.7. It is expected that stars forming from this fractal medium exhibit similar fractal…
Cosmological applications of HII galaxies (HIIGx) and giant extragalactic HII regions (GEHR) to construct the Hubble diagram at higher redshifts require knowledge of the "$L$--$\sigma$" relation of the standard candles used. In this paper,…
Over the past decade the relation between the Balmer-line luminosity of HII galaxies and the velocity width of the emission lines, the L - {\sigma} relation, has been painstakingly calibrated as a cosmological distance indicator with…
We present radio and infrared observations of 4 hyper-compact HII regions and 4 ultra-compact HII regions in the southern Galactic plane. These objects were selected from a blind survey for UCHII regions using data from two new radio…
The [CII] 157.74 \mu m line is an important coolant for the neutral interstellar gas. Since [CII] is the brightest spectral line for most galaxies, it is a potentially powerful tracer of star formation activity. In this paper we present a…
We present the results of the B, V and I photometry of eleven southern minor mergers. The total apparent B magnitude, integrated B-V and V-I colours were measured. We built B, V, and I equivalent profiles for each galaxy and decomposed them…
H II regions are the signposts of massive ($M\geq\,8\,M_\odot$) star-forming sites in our Galaxy. It has been observed that the ionizing photon rate inferred from the radio continuum emission of H II regions is significantly lower ($\sim$…
