Journal ArticleDOI

The FMOS-COSMOS survey of star-forming galaxies at z ~ 1.6. I. H\alpha -based star formation rates and dust extinction

TL;DR: In this article, a near-IR spectroscopic survey of the COSMOS field, using the Fiber Multi-Object Spectrograph on the Subaru telescope, was conducted to characterize the star-forming galaxy population at $1.4
Journal ArticleDOI

Modelling the Pan-Spectral Energy Distribution of Starburst Galaxies: IV The Controlling Parameters of the Starburst SED

TL;DR: In this paper, the stellar spectral synthesis code Starburst99, the nebular modelling code MAPPINGSIII, and a 1-D dynamical evolution model of HII regions around massive clusters of young stars were combined to generate improved models of the spectral energy distribution (SED) of starburst galaxies.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Mass-Metallicity and Luminosity-Metallicity Relation from DEEP2 at z ~ 0.8

TL;DR: In this paper, the mass-metallicity (MZ) and luminosity-metalicity (LZ) relations at z ≥ 0.8 from ~1350 galaxies in the Deep Extragalactic Evolutionary Probe 2 (DEEP2) survey were determined.
Journal ArticleDOI

Modeling the Pan-Spectral Energy Distribution of Starburst Galaxies. I. The Role of ISM Pressure and the Molecular Cloud Dissipation Timescale

TL;DR: In this article, the authors combine the stellar spectral synthesis code STARBURST99, the nebular modeling code MAPPINGS IIIq, a one-dimensional dynamical evolution model of H ii regions around massive clusters of young stars, and a simplified model of synchrotron emissivity to produce purely theoretical self-consistent synthetic spectral energy distributions (SEDs) for (solar metallicity) starbursts lasting � 10 8 yr.
