Quantifying the energy balance between the turbulent ionised gas and young stars
Oleg V. Egorov,Kathryn Kreckel,Simon C. O. Glover,Brent Groves,Francesco Belfiore,Eric Emsellem,Ralf S. Klessen,Adam K. Leroy,Sharon E. Meidt,Sumit K. Sarbadhicary,Eva Schinnerer,Elizabeth J. Watkins,Bradley C. Whitmore,Ashley T. Barnes,Enrico Congiu,Daniel A. Dale,Kathryn Grasha,Kirsten L. Larson,Janice C. Lee,David A. Thilker,Thomas N. Williams +20 more
TL;DR: In this article , the authors compared the kinetic energy of expanding superbubbles and the turbulent motions in the interstellar medium with the mechanical energy deposited by massive stars in the form of winds and supernovae.

Stacey Alberts,Daniela Calzetti,Hui Dong,L. C. Johnson,Daniel A. Dale,Luciana Bianchi,Rupali Chandar,Robert C. Kennicutt,Gerhardt R. Meurer,Michael W. Regan,David A. Thilker +10 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigate recent star formation in the extended ultraviolet (XUV) disks of five nearby galaxies (NGC 0628, NGC 2090 and NGC 2841) using a long wavelength baseline comprised of ultraviolet and mid-infrared imaging from the Galaxy Evolution Explorer and the Spitzer Infrared Array Camera.

Madore,Christopher Martin,Michael Rich,Linda J. Tacconi,David A. Thilker,Vivienne Wild,Ted K. Wyder +27 more
TL;DR: In this article, Catinella et al. explore the global scaling relations associated with the bin-averaged ratio of the star formation rate over the HI mass, which they call the HI-based star formation efficiency (SFE).

Open Research Online Red supergiant stars in binary systems. I. Identification and characterisation in the small magellanic cloud from the UVIT ultraviolet imaging survey
Lee Patrick,David A. Thilker,D. J. Lennon,Luciana Bianchi,A. Schootemeijer,Ricardo Dorda,Norbert Langer,Ignacio Negueruela +7 more
TL;DR: In this article , the authors identify and characterize binary systems containing red supergiant (RSG) stars in the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) using a newly available ultraviolet (UV) point source catalogue obtained using the Ultraviolet Imaging Telescope (UVIT) on board AstroSat.

Bright, Relatively Isolated Star Clusters in PHANGS-HST Galaxies: Aperture Corrections, Quantitative Morphologies, and Comparison with Synthetic Stellar Population Models
Sinan Deger,Janice C. Lee,Bradley C. Whitmore,David A. Thilker,Médéric Boquien,Rupali Chandar,Daniel A. Dale,Leonardo Ubeda,Richard L. White,Kathryn Grasha,Simon C. O. Glover,Andreas Schruba,Ashley T. Barnes,Ralf S. Klessen,J. M. Diederik Kruijssen,Erik Rosolowsky,Thomas G. Williams +16 more
TL;DR: Using PHANGS-HST NUV-U-B-V-I imaging of 17 nearby spiral galaxies, Wang et al. as mentioned in this paper found that the normalized second order moment of the brightest 20% of pixels yields a parameter space where distinct loci are formed by singlepeaked symmetric clusters, single-peaked asymmetric clusters and multi-peak associations.
